I'm hoping for a twist ending that calls into question the entirity of the series leading up to it, a la Sixth Sense. In fact, I'm going to start holding my breath right..............now!
You know, this last Wigu has me reminiscing. Was the old "When I Grow Up" the strip with the car that ran on hate? I keep thinking it was...but it might not have been.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... WHY!!!!!(?) jeffrey rowland, sincerly i knew this was gonna happen but i couldnt let myself beleive it was so soon. SO SOON i have ordered 2 more wigu apparely items becUSE i need all the wigu i can get. I NEED IT. y dont u listen to my cry jeffrey, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! --LL
yeah, what IS up with the new tattoo? i expected that, if there were to be another tattoo, it would be topato. from the coloring, it looks like hugo, or possibly a california raisin.
i am glad you have quoted neutral milk hotel in your subject line. way to make my day even as you wrench my heart in your icy, vise-like grip. love, the communist daughter.
:'( I just suffered a major breakup and now this life is truly not worth living. What will happen to this blog? Will you do anther comic? Or should I just OD now.....
Personally, I think Wigu had a good run, and it was a cute look into one normal week for one boy's not-so-normal family. I'm looking forward to what Jeffrey has in store for the next thing.
I'm hoping by 'last Wigu ever' he's kinda screwing w/ us. As in starting mid January he'll rename the strip to 'Paisley's Little Brother' or 'Revenge of Stupidetta' or perhaps 'Awesomalope... why the pick?' Maybe it'll just get renamed 'Topato' as it's a catchier name.. and he did just come out w/ all those snazzy TopatoCo logos.
Anyhow... if this really is the end of Wigu.. this new comic better rock quite thoroughly and make me laugh until I forget all about Wigu.
1. The new tattoo is Dr. Zoidberg. I have seen it on his naked flesh and lo, it was good.
2. The hand on his shoulder is Wigu's, of course.
3. Jeff is awesomocity in human form. You do not demand greatness of him, he bestowes it upon you. Relax. Wigu was fun but Jeff is a clever guy and with his next project, like everything else on the planet, you'll either like it or not.
Hey, I'd just like to thank you. Wigu was one of the key players in creating my love of webcomicry. It's been great and I look forward to what you come out with next.
You made a damn fine comic. Again. Your stories had heart, and soul, and a little guy made out of poison. I never knew what would happen next, but you delivered hilarity time after time.
Jeff rocks out. He rocks out HARD. All this rocking out will result in the best new comic ever, and it will fill the void left by the passing of Wigu. The void may even over-fill, leaking awesome wherever it may go.
In any case, I am sad to see Wigu leave, but await the new awesomeness that is to come (and also revere Overcompensating as a tiny god; Thusly, I say "What do you got for me, Jeffrey? What do you got?" to every person I know, whether they understand why or not).
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for making an awesome comic. The final comic made me laugh, as many others did. Very appropriate, very cool. Thanks again, looking forward to your other stuff.
When W.I.G.U. went the way of the dodo, I was all, "What the hell?! This guy is on crack, this "Wigu" thing can't possibly be as cool!" And then I was proved horribly wrong and was beaten with whips by sherpas. So this time, all I'm gonna say is, "You bastard! Your comic was totally awesome, thank you!" I don't know why I called you a bastard. Also, this time I will not think the new comic can't be as cool. No, I will believe in its awesomeness from the beginning. Please, sir, call off your sherpas.
why would you get a tattoo of dr zoiberg? i mean, he's sort of funny, but it's not as if he's your own creation like sheriff pony. also it appears to be the wrong colour. i'm going to cling to my theory that it is a tease of a character in the new project.
I am glad that the Ghostbusters have finally hooked up that automated response number that says they do not exist, instead of that old fax screeching that makes my ears bleed and my television vomit.
Thanks. It was an awesome read, and a good part of starting my day. Sorry to see it go, but looking forward to your next venture. Hope your vacation is a good one.

WTF? Who is that behind Jeff grabbing his shoulder? I be confuse-ed.
I'll handle these ones, Jeff.
1. The new tattoo is Dr. Zoidberg. I have seen it on his naked flesh and lo, it was good.
2. The hand on his shoulder is Wigu's, of course.
3. Jeff is awesomocity in human form. You do not demand greatness of him, he bestowes it upon you. Relax. Wigu was fun but Jeff is a clever guy and with his next project, like everything else on the planet, you'll either like it or not.
The Neutral Milk Hotel brings it all full circle for me.
<3 the Jeff. <3 the Wigu.
Hey, I'd just like to thank you. Wigu was one of the key players in creating my love of webcomicry. It's been great and I look forward to what you come out with next.
i will cry oh so hard when tomorrow comes.
after that, i will continue to be an avid fan of Overcompensating.
but i will cry.
I've just read the last Wigu comic: AMAZING! Thank you Jeff for making the best comic ever!
Oh, ache, the last Wigu.
But I got my copy of I was a Teenage Billionaire Psychopath today, so that's something, I guess.
*Cries a little and quietly, like a man should*
Dear Jeffrey,
You made a damn fine comic. Again. Your stories had heart, and soul, and a little guy made out of poison. I never knew what would happen next, but you delivered hilarity time after time.
I don't know what else to say, except thanks.
I hope the next one is also a story comic.
I love the stories.
Stories are A+
Thanks for the love Wigu is
<3 <3
Jeff rocks out. He rocks out HARD. All this rocking out will result in the best new comic ever, and it will fill the void left by the passing of Wigu. The void may even over-fill, leaking awesome wherever it may go.

You evil bastard! First you get us hooked -- then you jack up the price. And the price is no more Wigu!
I know that makes no sense, but I'm drunk.
There is a speed limit on how fast heart strings can be broken. YOU HAVE JUST BROKEN THAT LIMIT, Jeffrey Q. Rowland.
(The "Q." is for extra happy sunshine fun.)
Thank you, Jeff, for three years of wonderful comics.
Thank you.
Thanks for the run Jeff. It was gr4ewat
Look i don't do this commenting shit much, so appreciate it.
Wigu was a very funny comic, and even the ending was great. A vasectomy! The ultimate deus ex machina.
Kepp up the great work.

I love you Jeff
and thank you.
I wish I could keep you locked up in a little cage.

r.i.p. wigu :(
You will be missed!
Any chace there will be a LJ RSS feed for Overcompensating like there was for Wigu?
Stop having expectations about the new project! You're making it hard.
I would like to live in a cage sometimes.
There is a LJ overcomp feed, it's http://www.livejournal.com/users/overcomp/
why would you get a tattoo of dr zoiberg? i mean, he's sort of funny, but it's not as if he's your own creation like sheriff pony. also it appears to be the wrong colour. i'm going to cling to my theory that it is a tease of a character in the new project.
I am glad that the Ghostbusters have finally hooked up that automated response number that says they do not exist, instead of that old fax screeching that makes my ears bleed and my television vomit.
Sorry to burst your bubble, Leigh, but Dr. Zoidberg is there to stay. The coloring on his real tat looks perfect, I can assure you.
Jeff, don't let the expectations get you down.
Jeff, thanks for three years of Wigu fabulousness.
I can't wait to see the new project.
Becca
I've only been reading Wigu for a year & still feel the loss of not seeing the first two thirds as they came. More strongly than this new loss.
...Change happens.
I'm looking forward to 17/1 as much as I do to each new OC. Wigu, the only comic linked from j.orlingrabbe...!
It makes a Simple Spankmonkey, very happy.
...byill
This comic makes me sad. And that's hard to do... seeing as how I'm a Ska kid.
Maybe it's all a cruel, cruel prank to suck the joy out of peoples lives.
Le Sigh.
:(
Why must you end Wigu?!?
and I just discovered it in September...
OMG! Jeff is going to live in a cave! OMG it will be the best cave evar!
I can hardly wait. Already my house seems somehow un-cave-like and wrong.
Thanks. It was an awesome read, and a good part of starting my day. Sorry to see it go, but looking forward to your next venture. Hope your vacation is a good one.
Will Paisley end up as Helmut's loveslave?
You have come a long way Jefferey, can't wait to wee where you take us.
