Category:Thursday comics

These are the comics that were posted on xkcd on Thursday.

• Note that xkcd usually only posts a new comic Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
  • However, for several reasons comics have been posted on all week days
  • In the early days of the comic it happened frequently, but it has become very rare since LiveJournal closed.
    • Actually the two first on the list came during the period where comics were released both on LiveJorunal and on the then new xkcd site.
  • The other two weekdays are typically used in comic series which sometime extend for five days in one week.
    • Thursdays comic will then be part 4, as can be seen several times.
    • It is not all of the series that are mentioned with a part number, as can be seen for Parody and Guest Week.
  • Another case is if a comic becomes a tribute to a person who has just died. Then the comic will come out the day after, disregarding the normal release days.
    • This was the case with 961: Eternal Flame, a tribute to Steve Jobs.
  • The above mentioned exceptions explains all Tuesday comics up till the one about Steve in 961.
  • One other notable exception that can lead to off-set release dates is April Fools day.
    • This has not happened yet for a Thursday (as of 2015).
• Finally there could be incidences where a comic possibly has been miscategorized.
  • The date given should be when posted on xkcd, not here.
  • Please check up on this and explain here and at the comic why it has been released on a Tuesday.
  • The dates can be found in the xkcd archive
