Today's strip (Dec-21-11).

Panel four, it says "And the last thing those Xployt-U employees will see before they go full-on zombie there cute little hamster going zombie-faced"

I believe for that sentence to make sense it should say something more along the lines of: "And the last thing those Xployt-U employees will see before they go full-on zombie is their cute little hamster going zombie-faced."

Double whammy, missing a word and incorrect use of their/there/they're.

Edit: Oh, and in the Handy Book Guide part of the news, you accidentally marked book 11 as "A Very Big Bang".

End of line.

It also makes sense as:
"And the last thing those Xployt-U employees will see before they go full-on zombie? Their cute little hamster going zombie-faced."

Not exactly a typo, but Zoe seems to start out the strip with long sleeves and switch to short sleeves just in time for nibblin.

I think the first couple of panels are supposed to be set in the future, after the last bunch.

End of Line.

Today (1-3-12). 'bunch of chipmunks' should be 'a bunch of chipmunks'. Also, 'anybody got bactine' may read better as 'anybody have bactine'. But then again, i do got a problem with the got/have deterioration in society lately. ;-)

Comic for January 5, 2012: tattle-tail should be tattletale. (Though Kiki might very well think that the former is correct, so maybe it's in character.)

Today's comic: "But there maybe bobcats" - But there may be bobcats

No, I think Pete is correct on this one, scarily enough.

1/26/12: panel 2, Noogy's 2nd line of dialogue: "do noT run"
panel 3: should be "...there were a few beyond help." Were, not was. (As opposed to the band "Was, Not Was")
panel 11 (2nd to last): some()one -> someone

Actually it can be argued that since you're talking about "A" few -- a singular grouping -- that "was" is correct. But I'd go with "were" too.

1/31/12: I'm not sure if these count as typos (edit: probably a lettering/layout thing), and/or if I'm just not seeing clearly, but it looks like you're using solid black lettering to indicate the dialogue of the person in-frame, and a lighter gray to indicate the dialogue of the person out-of-frame for the Riff/Zoe conversation. If that's the case I think you reversed them in panels 7 and 11, with Zoe's (on-screen) being gray and Riff's (off-screen) being black.

Also, maybe...
Panel 5: both are black, Zoe's would be gray
Panel 9: unsure if this would be wrong since it's only Riff's dialogue, but he is off-screen and would be gray otherwise
Panel 14: both are black, Riff's would be gray

2/20/2012: Third panel ought to say "Australian food" but says "Austrailian food".

I was perusing the archives today, so this one is rather old, but way back on May 26, 2011, in panel 11, I'm pretty sure Rammer meant to say "apologies," rather than "apoogies."

*Snerk* apoogies... :P

EDIT: And while I'm at it, May 27, 2011, panel 2, it should be "led" instead of "lead."
