# Fantastic!
Reminds me a bit of sinfest, but that's just God talking I think.

And yes, very Sinfest - but also very cool :)

# I get exactly the same thing.
I point at random passers-by and say "hey he looks just like (insert name here)!"

The people I'm with usually just look at me blankly due to the fact that there is no resemblance whatsoever.

# There are simple reasons for this:
1. Sinfest has done everything first
2. Sinfest brain-scanned me many years ago when I thought of doing all this stuff and stole everything. Perhaps.
3. Conversations with God are one of the easiest things to make jokes with.

It's really annoying. I want to have a few props used by God, but in my head there's a little voice saying 'you can't do that, it's way too much like Sinfest'. Buggrit!

# I wouldn't worry.
It's only reminiscent of Sinfest - and let's face it, everything in the whole world is reminiscent of something else.

Just go with it - it works :)

# If you're going to resemble something else
then you might as well resemble something that's been running for years and has a proven success rate :)

I hadn't read Sinfest before I started writing Trouble Down Pit. I then read through the complete archive (which took a long time) and was rather miffed to see that many of my ideas had been done before. Ho hum, I'll just have to make my own versions of them!

# Ah, I see.
The colour scheme is similar, but those comics clearly take a very long time to draw. I try not to spend more than a couple of hours on mine (less if possible). It's supposed to be a hobby, after all!
