His 2014 book What If? is based on his blog of the same name that answers unusual science questions from readers in a light-hearted way that is scientifically grounded. The first book, published in 2010 and entitled xkcd: volume 0, was a series of select comics from his website. Munroe has released five spinoff books from the comic. New cartoons are added three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. It has a cast of stick figures, and the comic occasionally features landscapes, graphs, charts, and intricate mathematical patterns such as fractals. Some strips feature simple humor or pop-culture references.
The subject matter of the comic varies from statements on life and love to mathematical, programming, and scientific in-jokes. Munroe states on the comic's website that the name of the comic is not an initialism but "just a word with no phonetic pronunciation". The comic's tagline describes it as "a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language". Xkcd, sometimes styled XKCD, is a webcomic created in 2005 by American author Randall Munroe.
