Okay, so a few minor notes about today’s strip. The first note being the title.

The title refers to the fact that, in the beginning of Capes & Babes, Marc and Joey DID go out on a series of “dates”… movies, dinner… that sort of thing, but I’m not so sure BOTH of them considered those events as “true” dates. But since they have gone out before, this is, essentially, their First 8th Date.

Second, originally I was planning on having bar stools in front of Joey’s kitchen counter but didn’t like how I ended up inking them. So, instead, I added some decorative wood work. I actually ended up liking the wood work much, much better. I would say I hope you do too but since you never saw the crappy inking of the bar stools, you have no choice but to like the wood work, right?
