                    Well, 
                      seems I have some more 
                      people to 
                      thank for links already. 
                      You're all really far too kind. The rest of you who haven't 
                      linked, however, are most likely not kind enough. Clearly 
                      this is a problem that must be remedied. 
                    Anyway, 
                      I'm off to college for the first time in my life this Tuesday, 
                      which means a couple things. First off, my entire life structure 
                      is about to drastically change to a degree that I am neither 
                      prepared for, nor even fully understand. Secondly, and much 
                      more importantly for you, I won't be connected to the internet 
                      for a couple days to fix anything on the site that may go 
                      wrong. So if the comics don't show up or something, I'll 
                      fix it in a few days. Until then, you can just pray that 
                      no more tragedy will befall your fragile lives. 
                    In 
                      other news, the open arms with which the webcomic community 
                      has welcomed in MiH has caused a sudden wave of generosity 
                      to overwhelm my cold, dead heart. As such, I'm going to 
                      take some time now to link a few of the higher quality, 
                      lesser known strips that I am aware of. 
                   
                   
                    For 
                      the first comic, could I list anything other than Arrogance 
                      in Simplicity? I think not. While not being the most 
                      aesthetically pleasing strip, it's consistently hilarious 
                      and articulate. Not many, if any, comics can make me laugh 
                      at such a constant pace. Plus, Caph is a great guy. So go 
                      read the comic. 
                    Silly 
                      Cone V is so under appreciated that it should be on 
                      here twice. Actually, here. 
                      Now it is. Clearly that is an endorsement of such magnitude 
                      that you can not help but feverishly click on one of the 
                      links and then read the archives until your eyes crust over. 
                      So do it. The comic is quite good. 
                    And 
                      finally, there's Basil 
                      Flint, the epic story of a man and his booze and women. 
                      Okay, maybe epic is the wrong word. Really wrong. But nonetheless, 
                      it is a great strip, very funny, and very well drawn/colored. 
                      Why you haven't started reading it yet is mostly likely 
                      a mystery that will plague both myself and the scientific 
                      community for generations to come. 
                    Alright, 
                      that's enough for today. 
                    EDIT: 
                      Wait, no it's not. HDTC 
                      is back. How 'bout them apples?

                  First 
                    off, to everyone 
                    who linked to here for the official launch, thank you very much. 
                    As Isaac Brock would say, you're the good things.  
                  Second order of business, I'd also like to take the time to 
                    thank everyone who took the time to come and read the comic, 
                    as well as explain a little bit about it to those who may 
                    be bewildered by the strange and fanciful apparition they 
                    see in front of them. Men in Hats is the sophomore 
                    comic effort of of me, Aaron Farber, and is the story of several 
                    men (in hats) who live in the desert. The comic follows their 
                    exploits, usually in one-shot form rather than storylines. 
                    If it seems strange and unfunny at first, it's probably because 
                    you love it so much that your brain is bewildered by these 
                    new levels of emotion. I would suggest that the only solution 
                    is more reading. 
                  Oh, 
                    and there's already a 2 week archive for you to peruse, so 
                    do so now! 
                  I 
                    think that's it for now. So tell me what 
                    you think.
