    Jason Shiga!

    --You remember...Bookhunter!

    --We all liked that one! All of us!

    --Well, he's got a new one out on Thursday!

    --It's called Meanwhile and it is ballyhooed thusly:

    "Meanwhile" begins as our young hero in dire need of a bathroom, knocks on the door of a mysterious recluse. His mansion is in fact a wonderous laboratory filled with amazing inventions: A mind reading helmet, a doomsday device and a time travel machine (although it can only go back ten minutes).

    Which invention will young Jimmy play with? YOU, the reader get to decide in my branchiest and most complex interactive comic to date. "Meanwhile" works via a network of tubes connecting each panel to the next. Sometimes these tubes split in two giving the readers a choice of which path they would like to follow. Sometimes these tubes even lead off the page and onto tabs sticking out from other parts of the book.

    Inspired by Scott Mccloud I exploded "Meanwhile" onto a 5'x5' matrix in 2004. I'm currently working on a way to bring it to the web somehow.

    --So, Thursday - Jason Shiga - After all, he's been awesome in the past!
    --Just saying, is all.

    I've read meanwhile about 50 times!
    Everytime I've either had vanilla ice cream or destroyed the earth.
    I kind of know how to prevent the worldwide destruction, but I can't seem to get the code out of the bathroom cabinet in time...

    Don't forget Shiga wrote FLEEP! too.

    I read Meanwhile again.
    Ate the ice cream. Met the scientist. I used the mind reader to get the access code. Killed everyone on the earth with the killatron 2000. Then I seemed to need another access code to use the time machine. So I looked in the dead scientists brain and ended up reliving his last memories over and over, in a never ending loop.

    Any body else having fun with this?

    Every time I read Meanwhile I choose Vanilla, eat my ice cream, go home, talk to my dad and then it ends. Is my copy broken?
