The Scott Factor
We here at Missing Number HQ have noticed something quite interesting: almost all the most popular webcomics (and comics in general) are made by somebody named Scott.
F@nb0y$? Scott DeWitt.
VG Cats? Scott Ramsoomair.
The Slackerz? Scott Smith and Scott Hepting! Two Scotts! Or what we call a Great Scott!
Dilbert? Scott Adams.
Understanding Comics? Scott McCloud.
We didn’t used to be supersitious people. But then we named a webcomic after a famous computer glitch and have had no end of troubles, file deletions, backup failures, and the like.
So, from now on, we will be adding Scott to the beginning of our names, for good luck ![]()
