Episode 310: Name Substitution

Not dead. I’m still alive, and there’s nothing I want to do.

Except make you comics. Because I LO~OVE YOU

Homestuck is a comic

mario — Sun, 20 Feb 2011 09:08:51 +0000

Hey, me again. Just making sure you’re all caught up on Homestuck. You’ve had almost a year since I first mentioned it! We’ve started a discussion thread for it on the forum, if you want to talk about recent happenings.

Oh yeah, and new Zelda Comic on Monday. But mostly Homestuck yay.

Episode 309: Skirting the Law

Has everyone been reading Homestuck? I hope for your sakes that the answer is a resounding “yes”! The comic recently finished its first year, and it’s been one hell of a ride. I’ve been picking up the soundtrack albums cobbled together from tunes featured in the frequent cutscenes, and suggest maybe you do likewise. Considering my update schedule, I do hope you’re finding ways to occupy your time between Zelda Comic updates.

Old and obscure references are the best.

Episode 308: On Thematic Reprisals

Nine months seems like a long enough break. Wouldn’t you agree?

Hey, the comic turned eight this month! That’s… something… right?!

Happy Independence Day weekend!

Hey there humans! Comic’s going to be ever so slightly delayed due to general holiday weekend business and some quick script rewrites. Hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day weekend! If you didn’t spend at least part of it watching the RiffTrax of Independence Day, well, I don’t know what to tell you.

Next comic coming very soon!

Zelda Dungeon Alliance: Reallied!

mario — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 02:39:03 +0000

Can’t forget to put that Zelda Dungeon Alliance link back up! Everyone should still be checking out Zelda Dungeon for all their Zelda community needs. As should I! They’ve got a happenin’ gigantic forum community too. In addition to updating the comic again, I plan on having a much more frequent presence on said forums (though you can still find me at the official forums). Get to it!

Episode 307: Parallels To My Absence Are Entirely Coincidental

Step 1: Fix site CSS ✓
Step 2: Script a few comics for buffer ✓
Step 3: Redesign Navi sprite ✓
Step 4: MAKE A FRIGGIN’ COMIC ✓✓✓✓✓✓✓

I mentioned this on the forum earlier, but now that everyone’s seen it in the comic above I can safely state: hey look, Navi’s all different! I always wanted an Ocarina of Time-style sprite to match her original game appearance, and the Zelda II fairy’s kinda ugly. Plus I had the opportunity to improve her glowiness, and anyone that’s read my comic for more than three seconds probably knows I’m a big fan of the glowiness. Here’s an animated GIF showing her off!

But most importantly of all: no more Diminutive Mega-Man #2 on top of the page! Oh yeah, and the whole making comics again thing.

CSS Sucks

mario — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 20:30:17 +0000

The style.css settings are nowhere near what they were, but now most of the pages are legible and the comics don’t get cut off or any such silliness. I apologize for breaking it in the first place. Now you can read old news posts and comment threads to your heart’s content!

Housecleaning

mario — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 18:32:39 +0000

Just cleaning house a bit. Mostly approving comments and deleting a LOT of spam. Feels like an uphill battle sometimes, but it’s all part of getting things ready… FOR THINGS.

In the act of pruning comments, I see a lot of people asking me to update. I truly do appreciate your patience as I sort through life and get my act together. And of course there are all the IMpatient people, and to them I can only say: I’m sorry? Your bugging me won’t make me get to work any faster, but I certainly do sympathize with your plight. I’ve had to endure non-updating comics myself, and it’s no fun. All I can do this point is assure you that updates are forthcoming. I won’t leave the comic as it stands. Diminutive Mega-Man #2 will not forever adorn the top of the page.

That’s a promise.

I broke the Gibson

Sorry guys! I was trying to tweak the style.css file for the blog, and… I accidentally completely overwrote it. I’ve reverted to ComicPress’ default style.css for now, and I’ll get it back in place, uh, soon?

Comics are on the way, by the way. YES REALLY. Stop bugging me, “crazy diamond”.
