Comics are currently drawn and uploaded through:
If you’re referring to an amount of rain or a rate of rain, it’s less. If you’re talking number of droplet, it’s fewer. Either way, when I read this comic, I was like, “Oh, snap. Walky gonna get him some lovin’…and Dorothy, you grab some of that caramel man action, but if you break his dorky heart. Well girl, then we got problems. On the real.”
Alternately: Same reason shit like BOTTLED WATER has an expiration date, to make you throw it out and buy more [though, some things don’t go “bad” so much as lose potency]
Huh, my understanding was that it had more to do with no longer being able to guarantee the integrity of the bottle/sterility of the contents. That said, I can’t even remember where I read/heard this!
Pretty much everything has an expiration date. An expired condom might not be as effective because the material is old, it could dry up, lose elasticity, rip, etc.
In this case, it shouldn’t be a problem. The expiration date on (quality) condoms is quite a long time, which I know because of a weird story involving some friends. At a summer get-together in 2009, one friend jokingly gave my friend Liz a few condoms. Liz saw the expiration dates and said that “now she had a deadline” to get laid. This past summer, we were recalling the story and–though the deadline had not yet passed–she had succeeded.
So yeah, condoms last at least 5-ish years. Any Amazi-Girl has acquired since the hold-up should easily still be good.
The latex in condoms will eventually degrade. We kept a bunch of condoms past their expiration date in a display and when we opened them to see what happened they stuck to themselves and tore.
Condoms typically expire about 5 years from manufacture. The latex breaks down and they become more likely to break…
Good practice is to always check the wrapper before opening, even if you know when you bought them and have already checked their box-mates a million times, just to get into the habit.
Keep them in a cool, dry place etc, etc… use lube on the inside and out to decrease likelihood of breakage, never use spermicides, etc, etc, etc, etc
A randy young fellow named Billy
Had a thick and elongated willy
It flopped like a trout
When he swung it about
But it shrank when he let it get chilly
Hrmmm…. Welp not that its any of his business, but, Danny would do best to stay away from this general location I’m sure he would suiside at that one. :/
Chekhov’s is best brand! Whenever one is pulled out, you know it’s going to be put to good use! Come to think of it, I wonder if someone has attempted to use Chekhov’s as a brand name, yet.
Would be an interesting way to start a date. Casually take out a box of Chekhov’s condoms, put them aside (but still visible), then act as if they weren’t important.
The camera pans out, then quickly zooms in on a slightly different location.
The camera slowly zooms on Mike’s face, grinning with sick pleasure, with the Terminator theme playing in the background. His eye is in full focus, glowing with an evil light, as the screen fades to black.
I dunno about scheduling strips (no pun intended) but I’m pretty sure that the next time we see Dorothy and Walky, they’ll be running into the fact that their intended consumation-location has a Walky-roomie in it.
Oh god, do it Willis.
Just have a week of Danny sitting there, with the viewpoint just moving ever closer to his face, every panel, until you end up in an atomic universe, and zoom in until you find…
Danny sitting there.
Doing.
Nothing.
Man, I just realized something. I feel absolutely nothing for these two. I mean, they are just really kinda boring. There relationship isn’t interesting, neither has really done much else outside of the relationship for me (heck, those events make me dislike them more such as Walky and Sal and Dotty and Danny). I mean, the best I really get from any of them is their relation to Joyce, but that is still Joyce holding that together.
Man, I’m really going to miss shortpacked aren’t I
Regular updates. More than likely he’ll use it for little rants on minutia of stuff. Like the equivalency fallacy thing with men’s power fantasy and sexual fantasy, and also the things currently going on in the Transformers franchise.
I feel like Willis might just wait a year or so until people stop regularly checking, then post ten more story arcs without any warning and see how long it takes people to realize.
>they are just really kinda boring. There relationship isn’t interesting
I gotta disagree there. I they are interesting, and I quite like their relationship. I dunno yet if they are my OTP for DoA, but in the running certainly.
Really? Wow. They’re my favorite couple in the comic. I’d love to see more Sal and British Guy, but until then, I’m happy with this. Then again, I dislike Amber and Danny.
He didn’t make up Alien-granted super powers, he has them; his include telepathy and prescience (that is how he writes with a buffer and still confounds us). The ability to make bad-ass comics at an absurd rate is all natural, though!
Ha! I was wondering when we’d see those condoms again.
Seriously, though, that’s pretty tacky on the part of Amazi-Girl. At least she used sharpie rather than pen to label them.
Years down the line, we see dorothy not being able to realize her dreams because she became a mother. Her anger towards Amazi condoms reach dangerous levels when she decides to become Anti-Amazi, a villain who is solely out to destroy Amazi-girl.
Ehh, while not as clever, I think “Checkov’s Condom” works better. Vibrators during sex are more a level 3 move during sex, and while Dorothy may be there, Walky is very much a level 1. He needs to earn some experience points first.
And much to the horror of Walky’s inner nine year old, was he infected with the Cooties in the worst way imaginable. Thankfully, the rest of him frankly didn’t give a damn.
They are cute. Wasn’t sure but guess they are at that.
I love the rain. Take my daughter out in the rain (as long as no lightening) to play. Bathing suits or what we are wearing, don’t matter.
Always loved the rain, and storms.
it would be funny if they released it but it was just a cinema painted on the side of a cliff

They plan to give the film a worldwide theatrical release in 2026.
do y'all remember when they found all that tf art in Osamu Tezuka's drawer post-mortem because I think about it often
anyway keep chasing your bliss and draw weird shit, god knows we need that right now
Today in #9ChickweedLane I learned that I have to weigh which is worse: the cartoonist already forgetting what this guy looks like one daily strip later, or that, yes, he's actually meant to be an old man, not a victim to an older cartoonist forgetting what young people look like
Like any average American, I’m for universal basic income and abolishing the police. I can’t get on board with these ultra-leftists calling for the universal hive mind, though!

Tacky as Hell, but i gotta do it: BOM CHICKAWOW WOW!
dammit you beat me to it!
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang!
And as soon as they say the rain’s not letting up, less drops start coming down
The “camera” is closer, so you’re looking through less rain.
also you mean “fewer,” not “less”
Oh no he Di’int.
If you’re referring to an amount of rain or a rate of rain, it’s less. If you’re talking number of droplet, it’s fewer. Either way, when I read this comic, I was like, “Oh, snap. Walky gonna get him some lovin’…and Dorothy, you grab some of that caramel man action, but if you break his dorky heart. Well girl, then we got problems. On the real.”
Or even droplets*, plural.
That’s just because they’re under a roof. It was the same in the last strip.
I tried putting the full amount of rain on them in every panel, but during closeups it looks like they’re not sheltered from it under the overhang.
I guess the over hang just didn’t look like it came out far enough for the effect I guess.
Also, have you considered redrawing your avi? It looks a bit outdated compared to your current style somewhat.
you’re a real pleasure
Sorry
Your MOM is a real pleasure.

Oh Walky so cute
You can literally hear the “sproing.”
Boi-oi-oi-oiiiiing!
[erection noises]
[Erection Intensifies]
wow. such erection
Stop. My penis can only get so erect.
AWW YISS MUTHAFUCKIN SEXYTIMES
Aw shit, get it Walky!
And then it turns out they’re expired and neither of them have their own stash.
Wait…as a virgin I must ask…Condom’s expire? How does THIS come about?
The lube dries up [ouch]
Alternately: Same reason shit like BOTTLED WATER has an expiration date, to make you throw it out and buy more [though, some things don’t go “bad” so much as lose potency]
How the bloody fuck does WATER expire?
Mostly the plastic leaches into the water so the water develops plastic toxicity.
IT TASTES YUMMY IN MY EYEBALLS!
Huh, my understanding was that it had more to do with no longer being able to guarantee the integrity of the bottle/sterility of the contents. That said, I can’t even remember where I read/heard this!
Well, latex can get brittle and crack.
Pretty much everything has an expiration date. An expired condom might not be as effective because the material is old, it could dry up, lose elasticity, rip, etc.
Speaking of which, I recently had 10-year old pasta! It actually wasn’t that bad.
In this case, it shouldn’t be a problem. The expiration date on (quality) condoms is quite a long time, which I know because of a weird story involving some friends. At a summer get-together in 2009, one friend jokingly gave my friend Liz a few condoms. Liz saw the expiration dates and said that “now she had a deadline” to get laid. This past summer, we were recalling the story and–though the deadline had not yet passed–she had succeeded.
So yeah, condoms last at least 5-ish years. Any Amazi-Girl has acquired since the hold-up should easily still be good.
Latex loses its plasticity and becomes more likely to wear, crack, and fall apart.
The condoms do, indeed, have an expire.
The latex in condoms will eventually degrade. We kept a bunch of condoms past their expiration date in a display and when we opened them to see what happened they stuck to themselves and tore.
…which is exactly how the baby in Howard Cruse’s comic “Stuck Rubber Baby” got conceived
Condoms typically expire about 5 years from manufacture. The latex breaks down and they become more likely to break…
Good practice is to always check the wrapper before opening, even if you know when you bought them and have already checked their box-mates a million times, just to get into the habit.
Keep them in a cool, dry place etc, etc… use lube on the inside and out to decrease likelihood of breakage, never use spermicides, etc, etc, etc, etc
…double up?
Double bagging just makes them more likely to break.
Yeah, I was being facetious.
Never do that. It actually increases friction on both, meaning they’re more likely to rip, than if you had only used one.
Never double up, that actually makes them less reliable. They damage quicker due to friction between the two.
Hah, reminded me of that Scrubs scene with Elliot and Keith… “That’s it, I’m putting on a third condom.”
There once was a young man in Kent
Whose tool was so long that it bent.
To save himself trouble, he put it in double
And instead of coming he went.
I LOLed
A randy young fellow named Billy
Had a thick and elongated willy
It flopped like a trout
When he swung it about
But it shrank when he let it get chilly
Amazi-Girl would never carry expired condoms!
Because she’s prepared for ANYTHING
I’m guessing that unless she saved those from Prom night, Amber got ’em the day after Amazi-Girl and Danny visited third base.
Hrmmm…. Welp not that its any of his business, but, Danny would do best to stay away from this general location I’m sure he would suiside at that one. :/
When you put it that way, people will want such an unfortunate encounter.
…unfortunate for Danny.
If Danny arrived at this location afterwards, what would he think when he found the wrappers? They are clearly identified as belonging to Amazi-Girl.
Ooooh, I didn’t even think of that. Hilarity may still ensue. And by hilarity, I mean horrible angst.
you and i must have drastically different definitions of the word “hilarity”
Um, I think that’s Dorothy’s dorm. So they’ll probably go inside first…
I think they’re still at the library. That’s where Amazi-Girl made her zip-line-to-the-truck escape.
God, even on the run, Amazi-Girl is still a hero.
Like Captain Falcon, Amazi-Girl also is able to prevent unwanted teenage pregnancies.
Although Captain Falcon just punches them out of ya.
(The most offensive joke I’ve made in a while)
That’s not accurate at all: That would be resolving a problem pregnancy, not preventing one.
That’s right. Captain Falcon prevents pregnancies by causing all men and women to forget their significant others and flock to him.
SHOW ME YOUR BOOBS!
Imagine he had a cold.
“SHOW YUR MOOBS!”
/instant emotional scarring.
Citizens! You appear horny. Do you require assistance?
Not like Amazi-girl will be using them. (Tomorrow’s strip, she is fighting evil bananas XD)
I guess these are Chekhov’s Condoms (a very strange brand to be sure).
You put them on your veiners.
That just made me cackle
Chekhov’s Magnums
Wibbed for your pleasure.
Such one-liner.
It’s how I roll… one on.
wow
Well if there’s a loaded gun in the first act, it must fire in the third.
lolololpenisjokes
Beautiful.
It’s Walky’s first time. He’ll be lucky if it doesn’t go off before the second act.
Chekhov’s is best brand! Whenever one is pulled out, you know it’s going to be put to good use! Come to think of it, I wonder if someone has attempted to use Chekhov’s as a brand name, yet.
Didn’t find any products. But this Joe avatar is rockin’, and TIL Anton Chekhov’s works are public domain and freely available online.
Would be an interesting way to start a date. Casually take out a box of Chekhov’s condoms, put them aside (but still visible), then act as if they weren’t important.
I… I could ACTUALLY see that working, depending on the date partner. My god it is glorious.
I think it would probably work on me.
I see it backfiring, more often, honestly. Most people wouldn’t get the reference and would just see it as egocentric. Save it for dating Kernanator.
Isn’t there one of AC’ s plays in which the gun doesn’t fire?
(Waits patiently for someone to ask what Star Trek has to do with condoms)
Alright.
What does Star Trek have to do with condoms?
Look up “Chekov’s gun”.
No no, Anton Chekhov. You know, the writer?
Blaine is watching
…you copulate…
…in the billiard room.

With the candlestick.
Mike is watching. He is amused, but frowns to make you uncomfortable….. More so.
Wouldn’t smiling make you more uncomfortable. Especially considering when Mike smiles….
The camera pans out, then quickly zooms in on a slightly different location.
The camera slowly zooms on Mike’s face, grinning with sick pleasure, with the Terminator theme playing in the background. His eye is in full focus, glowing with an evil light, as the screen fades to black.

If someone wants to have sex with you and doesn’t have condoms, that’s “No Good”.
LOL
If you don’t use a condom when having sex, you’re gonna have a baaad tiiime.
So can we count this as another win for Amazi-Girl? Her preparedness did make this possble.
Maybe we should count it as a win for Roz.
We definitely can. The very last shot of her was telling them what to go do with themselves.
Well that’s sort of true…
Okay, that is adorable as all heck out.
Walky has no reservations about this whatsoever.
Aw yeah!
Wait… this is Willis. Oh man, we’re gonna see Danny tomorrow, aren’t we?
I dunno about scheduling strips (no pun intended) but I’m pretty sure that the next time we see Dorothy and Walky, they’ll be running into the fact that their intended consumation-location has a Walky-roomie in it.

Man, I just realized something. I feel absolutely nothing for these two. I mean, they are just really kinda boring. There relationship isn’t interesting, neither has really done much else outside of the relationship for me (heck, those events make me dislike them more such as Walky and Sal and Dotty and Danny). I mean, the best I really get from any of them is their relation to Joyce, but that is still Joyce holding that together.
Man, I’m really going to miss shortpacked aren’t I
wait, what’s this about missing Shortpacked?! *just came back from vacation and moving.
Check Willis’s tumbler. The post in question is currently linked on the front page of Shortpacked.
Shortpacked is ending in about a year.
Regular updates. More than likely he’ll use it for little rants on minutia of stuff. Like the equivalency fallacy thing with men’s power fantasy and sexual fantasy, and also the things currently going on in the Transformers franchise.
I feel like Willis might just wait a year or so until people stop regularly checking, then post ten more story arcs without any warning and see how long it takes people to realize.
I think everything will be linked on his tumblr and twitr (and whatever is modern by then) anyway.
>they are just really kinda boring. There relationship isn’t interesting
I gotta disagree there. I they are interesting, and I quite like their relationship. I dunno yet if they are my OTP for DoA, but in the running certainly.
Really? Wow. They’re my favorite couple in the comic. I’d love to see more Sal and British Guy, but until then, I’m happy with this. Then again, I dislike Amber and Danny.
They haven’t had sex before, have they?
I think they just shared a bed.
I think Walky may or may not have touched a boob.
And it may or may not have been his own.
Walky slow down. Women don’t like it if you go too fast.
Yeah, any faster and we’ll call you Runny! Hahahaha I am hilarious.
or “early”
Boy, I couldn’t have failed to predict this arc any harder if I’d been deliberately trying.
I would love to find out that Vegas has betting lines for this stuff.
I see your predictions and I LAUGH.
Now I’m curious, where are those hilarious predictions? I looked for them throughout this story arc’s comments, to no avail…
Willis sees them in T’s mind!
He didn’t make up Alien-granted super powers, he has them; his include telepathy and prescience (that is how he writes with a buffer and still confounds us). The ability to make bad-ass comics at an absurd rate is all natural, though!

im going to make a prediction…some one walks in
I’m pretty sure McDonald’s doesn’t take reservations.
That’s why he made them at Wendy’s.
Should have made reservations at Dick’s. Best hamburgs *ever*. Also, innuendo
Long way to go between Bloomington and Seattle. And up to this point, the only person with a vehicle is Sal.
You can’t make reservations at Dick’s, either, I’ve had friends who’ve tried.
Yeah, I know.
Awesome that they actually tried!
But what if Faz is in Wendy’s?
Not sure about the rest of the year, but White Castle takes reservations for Valentine’s Day.
And Walky knows about White Castles.
I guess if you insist on calling it “Le Chateau Blanc” than he can say that the reservation was “at a fancy-pants place.”
P.S. That should be “Le Chateau-Fort Blanc,” shouldn’t it?
Ha! I was wondering when we’d see those condoms again.
Seriously, though, that’s pretty tacky on the part of Amazi-Girl. At least she used sharpie rather than pen to label them.
hoo boy
If the alt-text is really a thing, we should be hearing about Roz’s gift to Billy/Sal’s room soon.
It’s either for one of them…or both of them. THE MYSTERY.
I don’t like rain.
or snow.
I don’t like it when stuff falls from the sky.
Especially unexpected white stuff.
Like hail. Shit HURTS.
Wait, are we talking about a situation needing the Amazi-Umbrella, or Amazi-Condoms?
Cus’ the umbrella’s in her other cape.
Phrasing!
Years down the line, we see dorothy not being able to realize her dreams because she became a mother. Her anger towards Amazi condoms reach dangerous levels when she decides to become Anti-Amazi, a villain who is solely out to destroy Amazi-girl.
dun dun dun
I’m 90% sure that if Dorothy had an unplanned pregnancy, she would get an abortion.
But my story has a super-villain and yours doesn’t.
…I hope they’re not gonna do it outside. In broad daylight. That could get awkward.
That’s just silly…it’s raining not broad daylight.
Outside is great!, though not necessarily broad daylight.
Well, not all that broad. It -is- raining.
Dorothy’s fetish is exhibitionism.
Walky’s is Mac n’ Cheese.
Huh, I was actually wondering if the Amazi-condoms were going to show up again.
Stolen condom sex tastes better, right?
What do you mean tas- OOOOoooh
The Chekov joke made me laugh way too much.
Woah there, Eager McBeaver
Man, if this is a Tuesday night then his standards are going to skyrocket.
It’s a Sunday afternoon. Just FYI.
Thanks, even though I decided to look it up anyways.
Maybe they should wait until Wednesday. That’s hump day.
There are very few reasons to not capitalize on this wonderful situation
Reason # 1: Faz is watching.
Faz is _always_ watching.
If you’re going to let Faz’s voyeurism get in the way, you’ll NEVER have sex.
Amazi-condoms needs to be a real brand.
Regarding the alt-text, isn’t it “prophylactic”? Or is prophilactic also an accepted spelling?
Surprised no one’s said it…

If you look below your comment, you will see that I tried to link to the comic about 3 minutes after you.
Man of steel, woman of steel, bed of Kleenex was one of my favorite IW strips ever
I eagerly await the return of the
(BTW, the Roomies/It’s Walkie/Joyce & Walky archives aren’t working. I had to find that page by starting at the end and working my way back. Here’s hoping It’s Walky Vol 1 is next on the Kickstarter list!)
Shoot! That link was supposed to say “thumpasprung” and I can’t edit it!

I am a mature grownup.
Dorothy, corrupter of virgins . . .
Reaction close ups get me everytime.
And suddenly the “gun” in Chekhov’s Gun takes on a phallosymbolic importance it never had before.
It becomes…. Chekhov’s Vibrator.
Ehh, while not as clever, I think “Checkov’s Condom” works better. Vibrators during sex are more a level 3 move during sex, and while Dorothy may be there, Walky is very much a level 1. He needs to earn some experience points first.
“Checkhov’s Dong?”
(I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.)
That last panel is the cutest Dorothy has ever been in the entire series.
She really enjoys teasing her caramel-sculpted boy.
Just look at how she smiles while her fingers are poking at his chest.
I’m figuring twenty seconds this time. Good thing Amazi-Girl was carrying more than one package.
Well, this time one of them has experience and can instruct the other.
For some reason I have enjoyed the Walky/Dorothy story arc more than most others. This has not changed. Thank you again, Willis.
Looks like Walky and Dorothy are going to have an Amazi-time together.
(3 months later)
“But…But we used protection!
AMAZI-GIIIIIIIIIIIIRL!”
She is amazing, but her choice in protection is not.
Makes a good news scoop… “How Amazigirl’s Defective Condoms Got Me Pregnant”
“Super Heroes Good At Making Latex Costumes, Not So Much At Latex Contraceptives”
“Amazigirl Contraceptive No Match For My Boyfriend’s Amazing Sperm”
“I Chased Amazigirl And All I Got Was This Lousy Baby”
You know what, the first one can be trimmed. “How Amazigirl Got Me Pregnant”
Panel 4!!!
Panel 5!!!
[Cuteness OD takes out yet another DoA fan…]
Dotty has needs
Wait. Chasing superheroes makes you…horny?
Hmmm.
Suddenly the behavior of Lois Lane and Lex Luthor…heck, half of Metropolis…suddenly makes sense.
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug.
Licky-style!
I said a-bang, bang, bangity bang,
I said a-bang, bang, bangity bang!
And then a wild Joyce appears.
PRE MARITAL HANKY PANKY!
PRE MARITAL HANKY PANKY!
I’m not sure which is better, the comic or the comments?
(The answer is YES.)
The joke will later be that Amazi-girl doesn’t make great condoms… and Dorothy gets pregnant. Oops!
I don’t think she made the condoms.
And I don’t think they are made *of* her either.
Amazi-condoms only protect against criticism.
And thus it was that Walky became Walker.
Just doing it in the rain just doing it in the rain oh what a wonderful feeling!
Hanky Panky incomming
Cider house rules reminiscences anybody?
Walky in Panel 4 is probably one of my favorite expressions ever.
And much to the horror of Walky’s inner nine year old, was he infected with the Cooties in the worst way imaginable. Thankfully, the rest of him frankly didn’t give a damn.
Well that escalated appropriately.
Nice avatar for this strip
What’s the over/under for how long Walky lasts his first time? I’m gonna 2.5 minutes.
Not even that long, also as they say about the stock market, “past performance is no guarantee of future results”.
Link didn’t work — it was supposed to go here.
Lets hope Chekhov’s gun is firing blanks….
Aaaaaannnnnnd….Enter Joyce!
No, her name is Dorothy. Dorothy is the one being entered. Keep their names straight or you’ll confuse the others.
They are cute. Wasn’t sure but guess they are at that.
I love the rain. Take my daughter out in the rain (as long as no lightening) to play. Bathing suits or what we are wearing, don’t matter.
Always loved the rain, and storms.
It hurts to see Walky sans Joyce for some reason… It just speaks to your webcomic-ing skillz that I still like it too. Thanks David!
