The lovable nerds at Penny Arcade just debuted the first look at their new webcomics-themed reality show Strip Search. Occasional Mercury contributor Erika Moen is one of the contestants—you can see all their bios here—along with Portlander Mackenzy Schubert

The artists are competing for $15,000 and "a year integrated into the Penny Arcade machine," which presumably means tons of exposure from the super-popular site.

Episodes of the show are expected to start airing later in the month; in the meantime, you can vote for your favorite contestant and check out this infographic documenting just how many poops were recorded during filming,

We know it's no Project Runway, but we'll check back in in a few weeks to see how our Portland contestants are faring.
