Comic Transcripts

– Okay, before we get started, is there any particular way you want to be portrayed?

– Oh, well, I don’t know… Make me look nice, handsome, young…

– I guess make sure you show off my beard, it’s my trademark…

– And make me look happy, you know? Not too fussy…

– But I came to you to get your own vision, so just do it how you like!

– Are you already done?!
– That’ll be ten thousand dollars.

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

May 8, 2026 by David Malki !

Last year, I participated in Genius Northwest, a gaming competition inspired by the Korean gameshow The Genius and its ilk.

It’s a reality show without the cameras — a 3-day, all-inclusive weekend retreat structured around a series of challenges and puzzles, in which personalities and dealmaking matter as much as playing games.

It’s truly a remarkable thing. I came in dead last in the competition, but I still had a great time participating.

The event is held annually in the Pacific Northwest (hence the name) and applications are now open to participate in the 2026 competition!
