Before Commenting
Generally, most comments are welcome. But lets have a few rules.
No spoilers. Don’t post revealing comments in older comics.
No flaming or politics. Get your own soapbox.
If a comment doesn’t show up right away, don’t post it again or one about it not showing up. It may need moderation or have gotten picked up by the spam filter. I’ll get to it if it’s legit.
No grammar or spell shaming other’s comments. It’s one thing if you don’t understand, but leave it be if it’s at all comprehensible.
If a comment gets removed, don’t comment about that. It’ll get removed, too.
Lay off on character grammar. Not evahbody toks liek yew. If anyone can provide alternative dialog (Spookie was a Scott of Buckie born at the turn of the previous century), I’ll hear you out. Otherwise shut it about me hating Scotts and Aussies.
Go ahead and point out typos. But I tend to pull those comments after fixing them.
Is this comic still active?
Yes and No. The intent is yes, but the artist is currently on hiatus due to health issues. When/If they can return they intend to, but life isn’t always convenient.
Glad to hear you are still among the living, sorry to hear of your bad luck with computers… Did your ups have a warrentee about failures? Just a thought. Prayers for you and family…
Hello matey.
I pretty much gave up on TMI.
I dont know why you stopped,
but I’m glad your still around.
I’ve seen so many comics finish,
or simply fade away in 2020.
Please take care.

If you wish, I can post a link to the page where we were first told the reason.
Hi TMI fans, my brother Andy said he gave me admin privileges, but I haven’t figured it out, yet. He has been repeatedly hospitalized over the last couple years and he had a good day, yesterday, with a medical team plan to get him into a rehab place for him to improve enough to keep fighting, but he is terminal with an undefined calendar date. He does have a cataract in his only eye, and is no longer able to get surgery for it, at least not this year. He can still read, his speech is slow, and he really cannot type. Video calls to cheer him up are appreciated. I will figure out how to get this TMI! message out to reach more of you and give updates. You can find me on Facebook under Jeannie Bean and my email is ginibin at gmail. Thanks.
Sorry to hear it, I’ve been a regular reader from a long time back, and now check in every few months.
I wish your brother well.
Sad to hear the news, but good to know it’s not completely bad
Let him know we miss him
Sorry!!!!! This is Andy’s sister, He made me Admin and we have had a busy few months. He is Alive and better, but still one finger tap per ten second speed typing. He has only one eye, now, and it has cataracts. His speech had become unworkable for speech to text, but that is also improving. He has had past strokes but the recent trouble turned out to be a combination of heart and blood pressure and oxygen and probably some brain dysfunction and all probably due to mismedication! He has had some cognitive damage that my mother and I were complaining of and we could not get any scans for him until this event where they confirmed he had damage between the last recorded stroke and now but no one knew exactly when. Now, on regular oxygen, he is thinking much more clearly and we are waiting for his discharge. He got hit with some pretty big bills, as I am sure you can imagine.
I brainstormed with him on how to continue his comic. I am going to be honest, I don’t really get most of the jokes. What he has approved is if anyone wants to do a legacy comic, with fan fiction, perhaps a group can get together and use his templates and send some work in for approval, and he can add his two cents. I think this could be a fun project for some die-hards who may already have some great ideas of how to move the comic forward. We also have to consider how to make sure the comic continues to be available after Andy passes. He has a great storage drive but I have to learn how to use it and share the comic.
He is at the vague stage of terminal diagnosis and the concern of it being possibly immediate has lightened up, a bit. I am moving my mother and Andy to Arizona which we hope will improve his health and inspire activity. He rarely gets on Facebook. I am easiest to find on Facebook as Jeannie Bean friend the one in Ajo, AZ or send to

would love video hellos and get well cards, as reading can be slow for him with the cataracts.
Since I am not sure if this reply will reach everyone, I am going to do a copy paste and try to get it as announcement but this whole web page is greek, to me and I am slow to figure it out, so, please bear with me.
