Director's Note:
"Most of you may have heard of the recent flood of defective goods coming out from China, which appears to have a comparative advantage in producing formaldehyde and lead-based paint. Not cardboard though, that story was a fake. So your char siew paos are safe...for now. But what about something close to us? Something we ALL use. No, not toothpaste (containing antifreeze), that occurred a few months ago. And no, the antifreeze does NOT prevent the "short sharp pain" caused by eating ice cream as seen in certain adverts,I'm afraid. And formaldehyde in pajamas does not keep you snug and preserve your age. What I'm talking about is...lecture notes."
This WAS the intro to this strip. Then I was afraid that it would give away too much, so I decided to not use it to be safe. The original title was "Ahhh! It's from China!" also, but I changed it to become more vague so readers would not know what was coming beforehand, and I wouldn't risk spoiling it for some.
I also messed up the placement of text in frame 2 a little and I'd gone beyond the point of no return (i.e. saving over the original and deleting the actual), which is one of my quirks as an artist(?) lol. It is also a bad habit. Anyway, I had to use numbers to manually draw the reader's attention in order for frame 3 to make sense. and it basically doesn't look nice, so I hope for my sake and you guys, that we won't be seeing any more of this again. =]
DISCLAIMER: Purely for entertainment purposes, this strip does not represent the authors views of China in any way, shape, or form, and he acknowledges that NOT ALL its goods are defective. Just...some. Either way America's (X-M) is still getting kicked by it. Cheers.
