Yeah, a new nerdy webcomic!

Note: Scroll down for the first comic. It's rather Physicy. ;)
And do check out my blog, The Limericker.

Why do you need it? Hehe, you don't. I do. I have longed to express myself in comic form, but was held back from it by the unfortunate fact that I can't draw. ;) But now, inspired by Randall Munroe's simplistic (drawing-wise, not idea-wise) Xkcd, I've decided, lets give comics a try.

Randall Munroe can draw though, but I can't. So don't expect too much from me. Mine will be hand-drawn, hand-written comics, and I aspire nothing higher in that department. My aim is to be witty, nerdy and funny... if I acheive that, I'm happy enough. :)

If the initial reactions are not too depressing, I might update once or twice a week, depending on how busy, and how inspired I am. TIFR does have the atmosphere to inspire countless comics...

P.S. This template looks too big for the 800x600 screen. Anyone have a solution?

P.P.S. Yeah, TIFR? Well, I'm a graduate student there, you know. Yeah... Hehe. You can expect nothing but nerdiness, mwahahaha...

#1: The Angular Momentum Barrier

Kind of prerequisite: Knowledge of the Effective Potential used to derive Kepler's laws. But not necessary. Just remember, the potential curve for L != 0 goes... up!
Click on the comic for the larger image. Blogger doesn't seem to allow larger sizes in posts.

Edit: Cleansed, sharpened lines, filled the people better.
