Book I
Genesis
Reachin' Stick - The very first jaV storyline. Tac loses his book in a tree, and fashions a way to retrieve it. Beautiful in it's simplicity, still many people's favorite, which basically means the comic has only gotten worse. (September 26th 1999)
Leave a monkey, Take a monkey - First appearance of Komo. First appearance of graphic violence. It was a first on so many levels, reminding me of the first time I had sex. (It was dark, and I was alone! *rimshot*) (October 1st 1999)
Huntin' Grizz - It's bear huntin season, and one fat little bastard named Bob wants to kill Trout. Chaos ensues. (October 8th 1999)
Spotted Trees and Celebrity Skin - Epic jaV storyline involving Calista Flockhart and Ricky Martin. Lots of gratuitous violence! Strip shifts to color half-way thru. (October 25th 1999)
Bad Jokes made Worse - A short 2 strip diversion with really bad jokes, made far worse. (November 20th 1999)
French Canadians - The French-Canadian Yo-Yo Mafia kidnaps Trout's Thanksgiving turkey. There's beatin's all around! (November 22nd 1999)
Tic-Tac - Tac is voted the least popular character in the strip, and is subsequently phased out. Funny things happen...TO THE EXTREME!! (October 15th 1999)
Long Strange Trip - Trout recieves a mysterious Christmas present which sends the strip spiralling into a flashback. Includes brief stints as a picnic basket prostitute, and Grateful Dead roadie. (December 23rd 1999)
Book II
Exodus
Fire Britches - Komo's flaming gas sets the forest on fire, forcing the gang to relocate. Also casts further shadows over the 1980's Television series 'Quantum Leap'. (December 31st 1999)
Vagrant Story - Their home in flames, the boys turn to the mean streets of whichever city they live in, running into various hobo-related problems. Also Trout steals a large sum of money, I think. A favorite of my social worker mother. (January 10th 2000)
Travel Plans/The Philbin Incident - Fed up with life on the street, Tac and Trout try to find a new place. Includes the fan favorite Komo Vs. Regis interlude. (January 21st 2000)

The English Patients - The boys head across the pond and enjoy foul tasting british beer and start an old fashioned soccer riot! First appearance of Jesse. (February 21st 2000)
The Wrap-up - Finally, this long stupid storyline draws to an end. Our heros shack up with Jesse and Regis rears his ugly head again. What a turd that guy is. First appearance of Chris. (March 30th 2000)
