He’s Ba-ack …
… and none too soon. Something’s been missing over the last month and I haven’t been quite sure what—until this morning, when Six Things made its triumphant return to Heaneyland!
Reason #1 why Six Things is the Best Cartoon Anywhere: as with a crossword puzzle (or a well-made piece of radio, for that matter), it is sooooooooo satisfying when a creator trusts the audience enough to allow the last part to come together in the end-user’s brain. It’s like handing you a head of Romaine, a few heirloom tomatoes and some finely shaved Pecorino and telling you, “Here, you make the salad yourself.” It always tastes better that way.

I agree. Francis is The Best, hands down.
Has it been a month of Things-lessness? Time flies when you're having shingles! (that's been less than a week but FEELS like a month)
I've known Francis 10 years but it feels like just...10 years? Anyway, yes, he's a really clever guy.
I'm not sure I'd equate "aha moments" with making the salad yourself. I do hope you get to make a well-made piece of radio again soon.
