[381] Twilight: Advantage

How could I have ended the series without reminding everyone of 8bit's incompetency (I'm sure the dude's cool in RL but in my comic, he's a dumb ass).

Earlier today, I almost got hit by a bus that ran a red light. I'm fine but it really got me thinking about the people I know online.

See, were I to die, you guys would never here about it. The comics would stop, my friends would wonder where I was, my parents wouldn't know to tell any one and my sister would not be arsed to do it. I'd disappear off the face of the net and never return.

This made me think about all the comics that have, for no apparent reason, stopped over the years. The creators are never heard from again, people keep asking what the hell, but nothing ever happens. No note, no explanation, no nothing. What if these people have left this world? We would never know and would just get pissed off with them for not updating ever again and ending a great comic so abruptly without explanation.

And so, I say to you all, remember to consider all the possibilities when your faves go away. Don't leave angry comments, just read the old archives and maybe make some guest art. If it gets put up, then you know the comic has a chance of coming back. If nothing happens, then remember the good laughs you had and say goodbye to an old fave.

PS My friend Devi over at Just Another Lullaby needs some cash to help her get published and we're using my paypal account to accept donations. Anything you could give would be great and would mean a lot. (Also, free book from my Lulu shop to anyone who gives $8)

Until next time
