Welcome to Book 6. This strip marks as good a jumping-on point as any for the next year's worth of comics, so tell all your friends who are intimidated by 600+ strip archives.
If you haven't seen the trailer for The Thing, check out out over at the Deleted Scenes blog — yes, it really has the same title as the movie it's a prequel to. Although it doesn't really provide a compelling answer to the question of why a prequel was made in the first place, the tone is spot-on, the two leads (Joel Edgerton and Mary Elizabeth Winstead) are terrific, and maybe the film will have some surprises for us.

Multiplex 10 is here!
Although Multiplex 10 has ended, an animated prequel/reboot called Multiplex 10 was funded through Kickstarter in 2017 and is NOW AVAILABLE for rent or purchase on Vimeo On Demand, Amazon Video, and elsewhere! And an all-new, irregularly-updated Multiplex 10 web series (set after the short film) recently launched on YouTube! Learn more about the web series on the official Multiplex 10 website!
