Runnin' Silent Part 2

Okay, so if everything goes smoothly this weekend my computer should be back up and running full steam before Monday rolls around. It'll be cool to get going again, I admit I've felt a bit disconnected this week. Thanks to everyone for your patience while I dealt with this junk!

On a side note, this joke is from Persona 3 which I've been playing. Good game, but yeah its a bit messed up in the head. Cool messed up, but messed up regardless.

Enough outta me, I'll catch you guys on Monday, have a great weekend! Later dayz.

Stumble WTH!

Double Duece!!!!!!

I will now run the risk of appearing to have a severe man-crush on Brad Guigar and announce to you the newest in my collection of amazing Artist Editions!

You may remember the post I made when I got my Artist Edition of How To Make Webcomics a few months ago.

Friday I got my Artist Edition of Brad's new Evil Inc. Annual Report Volume Three. I immediately emailed Brad to plead desperately for the chance to share this amazing Artist Edition art with you guys and LUCKY FOR YOU he said he'd be "honored" to share that art.

Wow. Seriously, LOOK AT THAT LINE ART. That is amazing people. The depth and shading and cleanliness of those lines are absolutely ryboflavin. Surely now you can see why I speak so highly of Brad's work - and thats just the ART. Outstanding. If you have a chance to get a sketch from Brad you take it, you hear me, you buy that sketch! It was great for me and it'll be great for you.

Also, please note that I was number 2 of 250 in Brad's book as well. I think it's going to become a new tradition... future AEs must be 2/250 as well. *nodnod*

Now, to be fair I do have to give a very small review of the book cause it is unique. Brad takes his daily newspaper-layout comic and reformats the panels into a graphic novel comicbook style. I honestly wasn't sure how I'd like it but once you start reading it's really quite enjoyable. Plus, since Brad is vaunted as the master of scanning (in webcomics circles at least) have no fear about his adjusted panel sizes. Every panel, no matter how large or small it became in the book, still looks crisp. It's part of that 24-step scanning plan Brad so fondly endorses.

The only thing I didn't like about the book really isn't Brad's fault. Eventually a book has to stop and Brad's is an annual report so when he stopped it was after a year's worth of comics. Thats a lot of comics, but it just happens that this book's story ended with an odd just... um... it ended. Its hard to explain if you don't read the book, so read the book. Still, I can think of worse problems then wanting more book to read - am I right? Yeah I am. It's probably a masterful scheme by Brad to ensure sales of volume 4 next year!! CURSE YOU GUIGAR!!

So, treat yourself to Brad's work (start with Evil Inc. and then branch out from there) and when you're hooked like I am you can buy your own Artist Edition of Evil Inc v3!!

Secret Project Action Squad GO!!!

So, I can't really go to far into this just yet, but as some of you know I have a super-new-SECRET project in the works. Those that know either caught me talking about it on twitter but don't really know what it is.

Sadly, its not time to fully announce it yet, but I CAN tell you this: it begins today! Probably not x-citing I guess since you don't know what it is. Sorry. ^^;; However, I did want you guys to know it is starting now and you'll see some cool hints to it the next week or two as I prepare to show it off to you. So, keep an eye out and if something goes wacky then you know its cause of the SUPER SECRET PROJECT! *woooOOOOooooo*

Also, I really really want a Mega-Five!! Maybe I'll earn one soon.

The Gift of A Brad's Laughter

So, the new Chug-A-Freeze is up now and I'm so x-cited by this one because we have our first special guest! By permission of the Mutli-Talented Brad Guigar we have his lovably infectious laughter!!

Brad's laugh can be heard on Webcomics Weekly where he co-hosts that podcast and also co-wrote the amazing book How To Make Webcomics which you can buy at his store!!

Having Brad's laugh on the show was great, but having his books are better! Mine should arrive in the mail soon and when it does I'll let you all know. Why wait for me to get my book, when you could go hit up any of his amazing comics ( Greystone Inn, Courting Disaster, Phables, and Evil Inc. ) and get your own taste of his awesomeness now!

DO IT!

Thanks again Brad and major thanks to Brad's Laugh!!

Paper For Your Walls?

So, as my way of apologizing for the late comic yesterday (I finally got it up around 10pm EST which is insane) I wanted to do something special for everyone today! So, I took the final panel and created the first WTH wallpaper. Pick your size, there's a TON available.
