Depressing Comic Week

Been thinking about how to properly edit this, but the previous sentence structure makes that hard to do, so i did what i can to this small paragraph.

Aside from purely comedic strips, Cyanide & Happiness has a Depressing Comic Week once a year in April.
Aside from purely comedic strips, Cyanide & Happiness has had Depressing Comic Weeks.

Referencing their comic archive, located at http://www.explosm.net/comics/archive/2011/ , they mark their Depressing Comic Weeks with a blue color, like April 2010 for example. The paragraph before my edit made it as if there was one Depressing Comic Week each year, which is false. Out of their 7 years (From the first C&H comic), there have only been 4 Depressing Comic Weeks, 2006 2008 2009 2010, (With 2011 still a possibility for a 5th). Out of those 4, only 2 were in April, the other two were in August and November, respectively.

By the way, this article doesn't mention Chase Week, February 1-7 2008. 72.178.222.11 (talk) 06:36, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Twitter quote cleanup

I tweaked the Influences quote so that the Yale article is still accurate, but it is duly noted that DenBleyker Tweeted the request to change it in April. -AngusWOOF (talk) 04:03, 10 May 2013 (UTC)

Kickstarter/TV Show

Why is there no mention of the Cyanide & Happiness Show, or the massive Kickstarter campaign that the creators started to fund it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.211.8.135 (talk) 17:49, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

It's vaguely mentioned near the end of the article. Perhaps you can write up something about it? Be sure to add the media sources too. -AngusWOOF (talk) 04:52, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Matt Melvin leaves C&H

On 31st august, the artist Matt Melvin told via facebook, that he is no longer part of C&H. He seems pretty upset about it but wont tell details. Source: Matt Melvin facebook --82.83.78.61 (talk) 13:02, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

The Cyanide & Happiness Show

It seems like this article really needs a longer section about the show... Right now, there are only a couple mentions, and there's barely any info at all. Alphius (talk) 04:04, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
