New, for this year’s big game, a Flash Halftime Show (and we do mean Flash) has been added. To watch it, simply read the comic, and click on the fifth panel (“Yeeee, my chest!”). If that doesn’t work, than just click here.
You will need to have a Flash 7+ plug-in installed in your browser. If you don't have it, than click here.
P.S. Don't forget to take the quiz after you've read the comic.
