Team Fortress 2 Comic issue 7 is finally, officially available

What a nice early holiday surprise. The official Team Fortress 2 comic has finally officially returned. Now you've got something to read over the weekend. In an official blog post titled "A Smissmas Miracle" on the Team Fortress 2 website, Valve developers posted this message:

Did you know the construction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa was one hundred and ninety nine years late? Literally everyone alive when construction started was dead by the time it finished. So unless you're having this read to you from the bad side of a Ouija board, you made it out the other end of issue seven's historically-speaking-pretty-short seven year delay alive. Which isn't too bad.

And, honestly, we can think of another, much more popular project we're involved with that you're STILL waiting on: The Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, which began construction in 1886 and still isn't done, and which the Spanish government hired us to write a delay-themed blog post about after seeing an early draft of the blog post you're reading right now

Speaking of you reading things, we are very, very relieved to present Team Fortress Comics issue 7.

Nice to see Valve finally did it.
