Bry KotykBeing a Chritian my friends question my wanting to follow this online comic strip as they feel it does not do Christ much service. I see Christ as someone that can find humor even at himself possible, and for the most part you have seemed to represent inFirst off, thanks for reading the comic, and I'm glad you seem to like it. :)
I see it the same way as you - I'm not a Christian, but I agree with the mindset that you and many believers share, that God and Christ would have a sense of humour about themselves. (Considering that the Bible stated that people were created in God's image, it makes sense, right?)
I've tried my best to keep Lordon and Jesus (as well as the gods/goddesses of other faiths and cultures) overall likable characters, albeit ones with their own "human" flaws. Hopefully I'm succeeding at that.
Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'm always really interested in how Christians (and believers of other faiths) view the comic, and this has given me more to think about!0 likes0 hitsNov 18, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter

- Generally, phone call. Texting is great, and I honestly do it far more than I talk on the phone, but that's mainly for the convenience. It's nice to be able to send a quick message and not have to reply right away, or get information/make plans while you're busy without totally disrupting what you're doing. But any conversation that's remotely important, I always call.0 likes0 hitsMay 29, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter

- Originally, the P stood for Percival, a little nod to rock legend Neil Young, who shares the same middle name.
However, a while back I had a comment from a reader suggesting Lordon's middle initial should be R instead of P. I realized immediately that they were right -- the obvious joke is that the short form of Lordon (rhymes with Gordon) would make his actual name Lord God, and having his middle initial be R just added to that -- so I've been using R ever since.
As for what the R stands for? That I'm gonna save for later. ;)0 likes0 hitsApr 16, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter

I'm not much of a casual television-watcher these days, though.

Blue of any kind. Still likely my overall favourite, but my personal palette has expanded quite a bit.
Aside from blue (bright "highlighter blue" is a current favourite), I wear a lot of green and red, and recently got some purple shoes. I try to dress with some decent colour as much as possible, and enjoy pretty much anything that's coloured or painted bright and interesting. I think people wear/use too much grey, brown and black in daily life - let's have a little flash, huh?0 likes0 hitsApr 10, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter - Huh, good question.

- Bry KotykHey Bry, just curiously, if Lordon created the Universe, how does all the other creation mythologies play in? In norse paganism, the creation mythology is waaaaay different. Does that make Lordon the one true god and Odin a false one?This is definitely something I plan to get into more as the comic continues. But it's a running theme that not everything in these characters' histories went down *exactly* as mythology says, or even exactly as they would claim.
But I WILL say that I approach the comic from the mindset that all the gods are equally "valid". Lordon's the main protagonist, but he's still one god in a city full of them. As for how it all fits together in the long run...? Well, keep reading. :)0 likes0 hitsMar 12, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter

- I've been putting this question off for a while. I don't really know how to answer it (I've got a lot of happy moments and it's tough to pick one out), so I'll just list off some favourite memories:
- My dad surprising me as I walked home from school one day with a Nintendo (I think it was my birthday maybe?)
- The days I met each of my dogs - Maya and Logan.
- That one magic day in high school when I finally felt good about who I was. (It was a slow burn.)
- Seeing my final student film screened in a full theatre.
- Honestly, the thing that makes me *crazy* happy these days is just getting comments and feedback on the comic. It feels great knowing people are enjoying what I'm making, and that gets me really excited to keep at it and keep improving.
Beyond that? I don't know, I have a lot of happy moments. I'm pretty lucky. I've got a great family and lots of awesome friends, a lot of love and support I'm so thankful for.0 likes0 hitsJan 27, 2012 | Bry Kotyk of Welcome to Hereafter - Bry KotykI have heard about this act and i thank you for telling others about it.

- Julie FaulknerHow do I deal with my friend who insists on answering their mobile at the dinner table?How vulgar!
My butler has a basket that he keeps in the hallway outside of the dining room. All communication devices must be remanded there before sitting at the table thus eliminating temptation. If it so happens that someone hears their phone from the hall and simply must answer it (allowances for Doctors, firemen and the like), at least they've been removed from the table.
If someone actually had the unmitigated gall to answer their phone and carry on a conversation while remaining seated at the table?! Such an offence would warrant mention at the least followed by an apology and if it happened a second time, I suggest rallying the entire table to sing as loudly and obnoxiously as possible for the duration of the call. Perhaps then they will realize that there are people in the room who deserve their undivided attention.0 likes0 hitsJan 26, 2012 | Julie Faulkner of Promises Promises - Julie FaulknerWhat should I do when someone gives me a Christmas gift but I don't have one in return?Accept the gift!

Should I say something and if so, how do I tell her without embarrassing her?There are subtle solutions like offering a mint (never refuse a mint if offered, someone my be trying to tell you something) or giving her an electric toothbrush, tooth paste, mouth wash and floss for her birthday. The less subtle but more effective solution is to carry a small battery-powered fan in your purse, then turn it on and point it at her while she's speaking.0 likes0 hitsJan 26, 2012 | Julie Faulkner of Promises Promises
- Julie FaulknerHi Baroness, I was wondering if you could recommend a pair of socks/sandals for the shower at my local gym. Thongs are out as I am a diabetic. Thanks for making the gym fashionable.Diabetics can't wear flip-flops? I've never known them to be very high in sugar.
Nevertheless, if the thong strap is an issue for you there are options. You can get sandals that are similar to flip flops but have a wide band that fits across the top of your foot, or these little darlings that have a proper sole and slip-on mesh top that is still ideal for rinsing. http://tinyurl.com/72l2ylu

Whatever you choose please remember that although they may seem like a reasonable solution, friends do not let friends wear Crocks.0 likes0 hitsJan 26, 2012 | Julie Faulkner of Promises Promises

- I already am, to the best Boston Terrier in the world! :D
As for being a father to a *human* child? I don't know. I'm not opposed to it, but at this point in my life I'm not in a rush for it, either. It's a massive responsibility, and not one I would ever take lightly. I wouldn't want to make that decision until I was 100% sure I want it and was ready for it. It's possible I will, it's possible I won't. I'll have to wait and see how life plays out, I guess.
That said, if I *were* to become a father, I think I'd go with adoption. There are so many children in the world who don't have families, and I don't really care about passing on my genes. My opinion is, if we can't take care of the people who already live on this planet, what business do we have making more?
