I'm late, I'll admit it. But fortunately, i should have this thing up and running smoothly here shortly. Now about Todd. My artwork isn't the greatest, and so I'll work on getting him a little more emotion. And making him look relatively the same.
The character page is updated, however I don't have any new pictures yet.
And as far as I know, the forum is down, not that it really matters, nobody uses it anyway.
Experiamentation continues. Especially when it comes to art (and my scanner sucks. Did I meantion that already?) Meanwhile, feel free to surf around Keenspace's webcomics, they have a lot of good ones on here, I've been taking advantage of checking them out. Makes me feel kind of weak and insignificant. *sniffs*

True True. Also to be used considering I'm still not sure when I'll have the next comic up. Possibly Saturday, although this weekend is a drill weekend. *pouts*
Ris- 1:05 am PST (do you see what I mean by late?)
I lied.
I'm sorry, but the comic won't be updated for a little while. Call it stale mate, but I'm burned out and got a lot of homework to do. So anyway, if you are actually following the story line and find it somewhat amusing, then thank you for your support. The forum is added as well, so enjoy it and please make some use out of it. I'm just happy to have a way to communicate with people, since nobody signs the guestbook anyway.
When I know the comic will be ready, I'll be sure to tell you.

Ok, the comic's got a bit of a new look. Of course, this will be more apparent as the comic continues. Anyway, enjoy! Comic will have a new update soon, to include an update in the characters link. Hopefully, I'll get some better pictures of the two main ones up, along with the 'new' guy.
Of course, from now on, when ever a new character is introduced, feel free to check out their info on the character page, which will be updated every time a new character comes on board. I promise to keep on top of this, honest!!!

Week Still A regular Week. Comic should be up by Friday, I hope.
As to this comic, you might notice that its a bit different from previous comic strips. I call it burn out, but I've also decided that it actually might look a little better too. Cleaner. And it also shows the first form of color. You'll have to excuse the appearance, the train's supposed to be coming through a cloud of smoke, or supposed to at least.
So we have the first world. Characters will be updated with the next comic, if I can get to it on time.

This week is a Regular week. That means next comic will be on Wednesday. Questions on this?
I've been busy still, with homework and all, that and I have to work today as well, so don't expect anything spectacular to happen.
And no, today's comic is not a subliminal message in relation to Adam and Eve. More of a 'being bored makes you due stupid things' attitude.
Actually, I consider it more of a parallel on my personal life.

Alright, I've almost got the layout done (for now) so hopefully everything will work great and all I'll have to worry about is updating the comic, which will free up a lot of time on my hands. I admit, right now the comic isn't that funny, and to clear up something that my always criticizing brother brought up, no, they have never left the vortron. However, this might be cleared up a bit more by the next comic.
That, and this comic is full of inside jokes. I apologize.
I now have the little picmap thing below which will eventually look different from that even but until then, this is something that is quick and easy.
Also, From now on, I'm going to post a webcomic depending on how busy life is, which is posted below to describe the kind of week I'm having. They will come in various updating, as in how often I update my webcomic. They are listed below.

Next comic is still up for Monday, February 18, so don't expect any changes.
However, I also have another addition to the comic, in the form of a guest book. Feel free to sign it if you wish. It kind of helps to tell me if anyone is reading the web comic.
Also, if you want, feel free to visit my home site which will let you get to know me in all my crazy self. Also, I'll probably work on getting a form or something on the website here, and update the graphics a bit more while I'm at it.
Anyway, that's all for now!

Next comic will be up Monday, February 18, 2002. This weekend I'll be working on the next portion of the story.
And as you can see, I got a new layout, and fixed Creature's font. Since you couldn't understand him half the time before.
Anyway, hopefully the background to these guys won't be so confusing, since so far they've been mainly inside jokes. *snickers*.

Next comic will be up Friday, February 15, 2002. It's one of those weeks, but at least I got two comics up, right?!?
I'm also in the process of getting another layout for creature, because this border one is to formal, and was only temporary to begin with. I need something a little more exciting anyway. Something that won't entirely tax my already strained energy.
Anyway, I'll also work on getting a forum set up, even though as far as I know, nobody has visited this comic but me (crazy, 27 hits and they are all me, mainly me updating the webpage over and over again). But then again, Keenspace is weird and hasn't had the opportunity to advertise new webcomics yet, considering they just did an overhaul. So far the advertising has been up to me, and I haven't been doing much of anything yet, not until I get a proper layout at least.
Anyway, on top of a new layout, the little thing-a-ma-bob below will eventually be a picture map thing to guide you to different areas of the website. Let the excitement begin! I'm also planning on getting some kind of guestbook thing up and maybe a poll or two now and then.
I've also noticed that some of Creature's words are, shall we say, less then decipherable. I will get this fixed by adding different font to that part of the comic so we can understand the two characters. This will be done shortly.

Alright, so far, I'm going pretty steady. Just a quick note, since I'm not sure how well I'm going to be on top of this comic and all, I will always know when the next comic will be displayed, so this blog will always state when the next comic will be.
As for questions regarding Creature, Splash, and the ancient text, well, right now its not all that funny. Hopefully, it will kind of give some insight on their personal lives and who knows what. There is a reason why Creature can understand the text and Splash can't, but it's not because Splash is stupid. If anything, Splash carries the brains in the group.
Next comic will be Monday, February 11.
Also, as a side note, because I've got this started on my own page, I'm going to have a WEIP quote (When Ever I Post) above my name.

For those few of you few individuals who have actually found my web comic, I guess I better stress this again. I'm still really new, and I'm working out all the little loose screws on the webpage. There are a few, so bare with me. Also, it will be looking a lot different when I'm done (different background for sure). I also plan on doing some kind of image map for the bottom portion when I happen to get that up. In the meantime, any questions, feel free to utilize the email. I should have a forum up and running within the next month, hopefully, where I will also be publicizing the webcomic a little bit more then currently. I'm also thinking about having a guestbook, but I'm still debating on whether or not I want one.
Ris- 10:20 pm PST
Alright, another comic's up for tomorrow (the sixth). I Also wanted to mention quickly the topic of the 'ancient text'. Because of the artwork depicted, it is not entirely clear that the ancient text doesn't look exactly ancient, but it is in fact in mint condition. This will be explored later.

I probably got better things to do then to stay up into the wee hours of the night making sure that this thing debuts properly (like sleep, I have to get up early in the morning and I tried to pull a late nighter last night too and practically passed out several times from exhaustion today). But I decided to go ahead and make a few comments for those of you who aren't aware that I'm new at this game.
I'm new at this game. This is my first web comic, which I personally don't feel looks that shabby for being brand spankin' new. The website will be in a constant state of change until I get the layout just right (since I'm starting this from scratch). As is obvious, there is also a lot of links that are currently, as we usually say, desolate of information, but hopefully you are all experienced in the ways of the net and are understanding enough.
So anyway, I also felt like warning you that this journal thing is open for pretty much anything. You have been warned.

Alright, I finally decided to do it. And Keenspace finally gave me some space to do it too. I've created a webcomic *yays!*, something I've thought off and on about for a while. But anyway, now its here and hopefully it will turn out cool and I won't be burned out on it in three months (which would really suck). Because I am just starting on the webcomic, I will warn you now that I haven't caught a groove yet, so please bare with me, as I will add a lot of stuff as I get the time, but hopefully the comics will be the number one priority.
I just hope I have an interesting tale to tell.
