A Roll of the Dice Birthday Week: The Ones That Didn't Make It.

Sorry, you guys were expecting a write-up on the town the comic takes place in, right? Well I had some trouble converting images to the proper resolution, and lo and behold, it's time for me to update.

So I decided to go with this one a day early.

These are characters that I initially had plans for, but later scrapped. Out of all of them, I think I am most disappointed with Sydney. I worked so hard to create him, turning him into a parody of Snidely Whiplash, that throwing him aside almost hurt. I say almost because that first, and last, strip with him in it is one of my least favorites.

Brad will likely return, but in a very diminished capacity. He won't be the semi-surfer dude I had originally planned as sarcastic comedy. Instead, he will be a minor, unimportant character in a couple of later storylines.

As for the magazines…well you might find it hard to believe, but I honestly did spend a lot of time thinking up plots I could use them in. Fortunately, whatever I was on must have worn off, because I realized what a dumb idea it was and will now be getting rid of the pile in an upcoming storyline.

Sorry this update wasn't more dramatic, and I'm also sorry to say that I doubt we'll have the last update tomorrow. I've been neglecting my actual comic a bit and need to finish coloring it for Monday. I will most definitely have the info on the town they live in up at some point, but not tomorrow. Sorry.

Hey, somehow I managed to get off my lazy bum long enough to do 6 updates in a row. Sure, they may not have had new art or anything extremely impressive in them, but for me I'll still consider this to be a small milestone.

One year of A Roll of the Dice people! I want to thank you all for reading and giving me a lot of the incentive to keep going even when I feel I'm giving you less quality than you deserve!
