Cold Slaaaa Part I


We have made our first venture into the uncharted territories of continuity today. We're anticipating four parts. I don't really know what you'll do with that information, but I just thought I should keep you abreast.....and maybe abutt.

We've always maintained quasi continuity, maybe just through tiny visual references to previous strips (a la the scientist's brain and hook), but Omar and I agreed that this story necessitated a true story arc. This idea of Bobbo's home planet has been with us since we came up with the idea for Space Monkeys!. It's exciting to finally be drawing it.

I don't need to remind you guys to vote so I won't. HA! Friday there should be a surprise up for those of you who vote. Other than that, see you guys Monday. Have a safe holiday.

Friday bonus


Well, I woke up late today on account of all the turkey yesterday. Also, I didn't anticipate having so much trouble getting the Buzzcomix vote page to do what I wanted it to do. So this means that if you tried voting today and didn't get the bonus, I'm leaving it up all weekend so you can get it at some point. That's my bad, y'all. Have a good weekend and we'll see you back here Monday.

About that Monday-Wednesday updating thing...


We're working on it! Really! Wait, don't go! don't.... go....

We were feeling pretty high on ourselves with this ingenious (INGENIOUS!) plan to update the comic on Monday and Wednesday, thereby avoiding the Friday Nobody's On the Fucking Internet curse that has beplagued us since we started. We do a comic on Friday, releasing it like the end of a sexual cycle, and nobody is there to receive. Much, again, like our sexual cycles.

The trick, and it is a trick, is to pretend that we're posting our Wednesday comic on Monday, thereby creating the adrenaline rush needed to push the late hours to finish, but then at 7 a.m. going, "Oh, shit, this comic is actually going to be posted on Wednesday! And it's done already! Silly me!"

The problem is these damnedable brains of ours, poking stories in our own self-scamming, asking intrusive questions like, "Well, if this comic is for Wednesday, then why is it 7 a.m. Monday? Well!?!" And we're like, "Oh no! We forgot to hide all the clocks!"

My solution: Comic lobotomies. It'll only hurt for a bit, but I think we'll get a lot more done.
