Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2004 11:56:30 -0500 (EST) thank you for creating a strip with some soul, and thank you for not burdening society with another "Cathy". -rob p. Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2004 03:17:25 -0500 (EST) Please, please, please. Don't let Jane mess this opportunity up. Life is so short, and the best we can take is the happiness we can make with someone. - Helen Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2004 17:06:44 +0100 Subject: Keep at it!!! In this day of overt Republican conservatism I find "Jane's World" truly refreshing. The fact that most of America shudders at the thought of open homosexuality is an endless source of amusement (scary, but amusing). Funny thing is I'm a straight guy who's spent the last 21 years in the U.S. military, 19 of them in northern Europe...might just stay here. Go get 'em Paige! DR Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2004 06:59:56 -0500 (EST) Hi. Stumbled upon your comic on the web. I've been buying the comic book for a while now, and it really is a treat. The things that ring truest or are closest to real life are probably the funniest. Keep it up. Please! - M.K.

I've been following it since Yahoo picked it up, and I've read all of the archives on your site. Guess it's time to buy the books and fill in the rest. It's sad to see that Yahoo users are consistently ranking the strips unfairly low - my guess is that a handful of people have taken it upon themselves to protest the strip's content. Hopefully Yahoo's management is smart enough to see that. As someone pointed out, the strip is if anything too 'normal' for the funny pages - alien abductions and Amazon islands aside. Yeah, the characters are a bunch of misfits with dysfunctional relationships, but they're doing better than a lot of people I've known. Heck, I'm a twentysomething, not-quite-straight single father of two, who's rarely got time to meet and date straight women, let alone figure out where the whole being-attracted-to-guys thing fits into my life. I challenge you to come up with a character with those constraints who doesn't have some real issues. :) And I've still got it better than my best female friend - she's a firefighter on a remote Pacific island, probably one of only about four lesbians in a 1000-mile radius. All the social implications of any small town, and no where else to go. Anyway, keep up the good work. I'm rooting for Jane... give her a break once in a while, ok? She deserves it. -- Scott Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2004 19:02:48 +0000 Subject: Your wicked awesome comic strip... Hi, Paige. Your comic rocks! You are a pioneer. Besides all the obvious 'first gay lead character in a comic strip' stuff, your illustrations and character depictions leave nothing to be desired (except maybe Chelle & Jane wrestling naked?). As a lesbian and a woman and a human being, your strip touches my life on many levels. The character interaction, the ex dramas, the straight friends, the jock chick...all of these are familiar. Something I read in an article about the strip really hit me...'trying to get along in a straight world.' That is sooo true...while there are many of us, we are a minority that lives in a primarily heterosexual society. But we can interact, and love our straight friends, family, etc. without ensconcing ourselves in a completely "safe" gay universe. I love your comic. I started reading it a few months ago and when I discovered your site I "wasted" 2 hours at work reading years 98-02. I cannot get enough of Jane's World. I am looking in my local comic book shops for the books so I can buy them (I just wish I didn't read that fast). Well, just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your artistry. By the way I think Chelle and Jane are sooooo damn hot. Sincerely Loving it & Hoping for Many More Years, I. Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2004 17:59:07 -0500 (EST) Great rendition of an old Winnebago. I have a 1975 19'Winnebago that looks just like the one in your comic dated 1/17/2004. The sisters and I also go on adventures like pictured - not quite decked out as Priscella - but we do turn heads. Do enjoy your strip !! Thanks !! - danna Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2004 08:58:40 -0500 (EST) Paige, What a great comic you've got going. I've just stumbled upon it via yahoo... Great drawing style and fun story lines. Its great to see a comic like yours outside of a gay rag. Continued, if not more, success! -- Bob Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2003 03:47:53 -0500 (EST) Well, well...a friend forwarded me this address and I got to instantly enjoy the adventures of Jane and her friends...what a delightful group of intelligently written misfits, and so well rounded. I simply must make this Jane more into a habit. Bravo! - Jim
