    I certainly expected this of Belkar, but when did V become such a bad ass?

    Burlew's sure been pumping out the strips lately. Things are finally moving along nicely. I'm actually starting to remember what the plot was all about!

    Burlew only did it to promote a reprint-- he's written about it ad nauseum on his site. I can't bring myself to care. After the last cluster <love> experience I had with Ookadook, I would rather have hot pokers inserted into my rectum than deal with them.

    Wow, that last one had quite the punch. Does the universe hate V or something?

    He ran a kick-start drive, and when funds reached a certain point he promised he'd publish a new strip each day for a week. He's also further promised to repeat it at least once this year, with another 7 (or 8?) days straight. I guess also seeing over a million dollars pour into his bank account would be a good motivation.

    I threw a couple of hundred dollars his way on kickstarter.com and grabbed all seven books printed so far. Something I've been meaning to do for ages - grabbing a bunch of free-bees in the process was a good motivation (current count at 8 pdf story strips (each around 8 pages long), 400 stick-figure monster print-outs, one Greenhilt magnet, one 8x10 inch art print, two sheets of stickers, two hit-point note-pads and two colouring books).

    Don't know if anyone has checked the site recently, but there's an announcement from Rich's wife that he had an accident and really screwed up his hand. Don't expect anything new for probably 6 weeks, but they expect it to heal.

    Get better . . .

    Sometimes it feels like it's 6 weeks between strips anyway...

    And another one that's more-better than the comeback one (at least IMO).

    V - crisis of conscience. Quite interesting, as is the forum gobble-de-gook going back and forth about the strip.

    Glad Burlew's back! Nice to see his injury didn't end the strip.

    New comic is up. Things are headed down a dark path for a certain chaotic evil and short good guy . . .
