Life in a Gun Shell is a weekly comic written by Andrew Mussey involving the trials and tribulations of living in an 8-bit world. A new strip is run every Friday.

In the summer of 2006, Matthew Grissom and Andrew Mussey decided to start writing a comic as a hobby. After 4 comics, the site was put online, and it became a bi-weekly effort. LiaGS started running every Tuesday and Thursday on AJAMA.org. After a couple months, the local paper, the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star, picked up the comic and started running it in the it! section of the Weekender.

In 2007, AJAMA.org underwent a redesign and separated the comic published in the paper and the comic published online into two different subdomains: liags.ajama.org for the uncensored web version, and itliags.ajama.org for the strip run in the paper. Later that year, updates to the online-only comic were reduced to once a week. At the beginning of 2008, updates ceased. The paper-published version was updated every Thursday until a short hiatus was taken in March of 2009.

Due to budget cuts at the Free Lance-Star, the strip was reduced in run time and moved to a black and white spot in a Friday section. The site, after falling in to heavy disrepair, was moved to LifeInAGunShell.com to improve ease of access and allow for better linking.

Andrew Mussey is a college Freshman at Virginia Tech with a focus in Computer Science.
