Hey Guys

Guess what? I finally got around to working on this comic. There might be (read: are) some kinks to work out with the site navigation and archive systems, and I’ll try to improve those as we go along. I can’t fix anything until I have some comics up, though. Priorities!

Updates will be pretty sporadic until I really get into my groove, so I strongly suggest using the RSS feed for the comic. Put it in your Google Reader or your Firefox or your Safari or whatever you use to read feeds. Marvel at the convenience of it! Imagine: COMICS, delivered to YOUR COMPUTER in the PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOME, for FREE.

The blog feed will be restricted to tidbits, footnotes, commentary, announcements, that sort of thing.

Please enjoy my first real foray into the world of making comics all by myself. By all means, let me know if you like them!

Sorry About the Delay

I have the next few pages planned and in various stages of production, but I’ve been working on a little programming project I hope to have done and ready for release in the next week or so. I’ve also been sleep-all-day sick for the last three days. Is it swine flu? WHO KNOWS, but I’m mostly over it now.

Anyway, keep watching. We’re not dead. Once this other project is out of the way, I’ll be back on the (comics-drawing) horse.

Just Call Me Procrastination Jones

So I finally got page 3 up and live. Wow, how long as that been taped to my desk? I need to do better about this. I am going to aim for at least once a month. If I do better than that, it’s gravy.

I apologize to my readers and visitors; I am the least punctual webcomic artist on the Internet.

I’ve been busy over the last few months, though–holidays, personal turmoil, etc. Stuff that’s hard to control and tends to put a damper on really sitting down and working. That’s my official excuse for being so utterly M.I.A. But I am also a Captain McLazyshorts, and that is completely my fault.

I would also like to do some paintings and side-comics and that sort of thing, so I may be M.I.A. some more, because I am terrible and love disappointing people.

Love,
Kris

ComicPress

Oh hello there! I’ve just (mostly) finished transitioning the site to run on ComicPress. It was running on a heavily-edited set of Movable Type templates before, which worked well enough, I guess, but WordPress/ComicPress has some serious advantages for dealing with webcomics. So: defeat admitted, lesson learned.

There will definitely be more tinkering, so don’t be too surprised if the site looks weird over the next few days. I need to add an archive page and get the theme looking 100% to my satisfaction.

I would also like to encourage my readers to take note of the new location of the RSS feed, clickable at the top or bottom of the page. The old atom.xml file used by Movable Type is gone now. Another side-effect of the software transition: though I was able to transfer the old blog posts, all the comments on the old site were lost. Luckily there weren’t all that many.
