Hey Giant I've noticed you've been doing the comics earlier lately because i normally get them at 4 in the morning here in Scotland but I've been getting them at 12 instead Can you tell me why that's been?

The Monday strip was posted early, and the Giant said so...haven't seen any others popping up especially soon.

Maybe this is the Twilight Zone.

Some crazy new thing that Yanks brought it where they lose an hour twice a year, I think.

We advance the clocks an hour in the spring, and repeat an hour in the fall, so it cancels out.

I've noticed it too, the last few comics have been croping up notably early, at least for me.

I noticed that on the two most recent comics; they did show up a bit earlier than usual. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.

I was being ironic, we have daylight savings here too. Its just called British Summer time.

Maybe he's doing it because he doesn't like the idea of Roy being dead but knows it has to be done for story purposes and wants to get it over with.

QFT. I figure that since the comics were important/memorable, they would already be pretty much all the way thought out, so they might be able to be released earlier.

The Giant has said before that he is nocturnal. However, he has been sick recently, even causing him to sleep through the night (and posting the comic the next morning). He has also said that staying up all night causes him to become diurnal (that's non-nocturnal, right?). I would assume that this also happens when he sleeps through the night. He slept through the night, allowing him to wake up earlier (during the day, as opposed to at night), and finish the comic before he now goes to bed (he now goes to bed at night).
This is all just a guess though.

I'm thinking of a song here... that's just the way it is... and to change it slightly... and some things will sometimes change?
