Mike-

1. please tell me there are back-issues of the Wittenburg Door online that I can read.

2. The first edition of Imaginary Jesus is the best. Your publishing team was wrong. Its the copy we own and read aloud to nearby friends and then forced on other friends and family who (mostly) enjoyed it (although probably not as much as my husband and I did).

3. Are you sure Jared Hess didn't time travel and steal your idea for Señor Muerte? Cause you know, Nacho Libre . . .

1. I *think* there may be a few. You used to be able to order actual physical copies, but those days are gone now.

2. Ha! I love the original IJ as well.

3. Nacho Libre definitely had something to do with the demise of Señor Muerte. Two luchador priests seemed like one too many!

OH. NO. Matt, I'm SO sorry. I called you Mike. I was listening to a Mike Bird podcast earlier and must have body swapped the two of you (ok, that's weird . . . can you do an Aussie accent?)

It's even more embarrassing because I'm married to a Matt. LOL. I'm going to chalk this up to a mid-age moment and lack of sleep (thank you, my 15 month-old child.)

Hahaha I get called Mike all the time because of the Matt-Mik thing in my name. Literally happens like five times a week. No worries at all ☺️

Matt, thank you for your words about Barbie. My dear wife has asked me more than a dozen time to go see it with her, and I've not been even a tiny bit interested until I read what you had to say here. Thank you! (Also played with Star Wars, G.I. Joe - and can confirm they didn't do dishes. I don't think they even stopped to eat. Like... ever. Guess thats why they were so pale and skinny. :) )

I loved Imaginary Jesus and had no idea there was a sequel! Something new to add to my must-read list!
