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.
