The Five-Minute Comics series was composed of three comics containing several small jokes he made as part of a game in five minutes. They were not originally intended as xkcd comic, but were drawn in the same style, and when he needed some time to care for his wife and her cancer he used these to fill in a week's releases. The week after another series [[:Category:Guest Week|Guest Week]] had the same purpose when five artists filled in for Randall during that week. A fourth comic was released by mistake only to be withdrawn from xkcd, but luckily it had already been saved by his fans. The series resembles comic [[68: Five Thirty]], which featured small panels apparently written at 5:30 AM.
