I don’t know how many from here actually follow Revolver Knight or not, but in spite of my efforts to keep my web comic separate from here, updating the blog section over there’s become an odd chore ever since the last WordPress upgrade. (the theme it runs on no longer comes up as an actual theme in the site editor, so I have to edit the sidebar.php offline then upload it- just like the old days!)
I’ve been rather inconsistent in updates lately due to exhaustion, mainly. Work is piling all sorts of extra busy-tasks on me, and I have to admit most of my linework was getting done there for a time so all I had to do when I got home was upload and crash, basically. My car’s been in the shop since pretty much a week after I got it- long story, so I’m back to commuting on foot or two wheels back and forth.
I bring this up here rather than there, because well, up til now I have to admit I wasn’t totally comfortable going LOOKIE LOOKIE and throwing link banners around forums and generally acting like an attention-hungry pest. But after finalizing and running my outlines for the remainder of the series by a few people, I have to say I’m feeling a lot happier with the RK project as a whole, even if it does still need work. It’s my first long term comic project, though- inconsistent in spots, as I tried new things to see what did and didn’t work, It’s not a bad time to stop in and check it out, anyway- Chapter 18 is due to wrap up next week, out of 30 total, so the ‘establishing’ stuff and a good chunk of story are already out there to get into at a pace a lot less glacial than the original post schedule. I’ll be spending the weekend (or part of it anyway) trying to work towards getting a jump on my remainder. So, yeah. Check it out. If you want.

Who is the target audience for a quiz like this?

Who is the target audience for a quiz like this? Anyone who's actually a fan- scratch that, I'm not a fan and even I know there's something fishy with this ad! And it's everywhere!

A Mighty Wind

(No, I’m not reviewing that movie. )

My absenteeism excuse this week is a doozy- you might have even heard about it on the news. Such is the power of. My. Excuse. For you see, gale-force winds, offal from Hurricane Ike, hammered Ohio and knocked out the power of several cities for a matter of days. I should probably consider myself lucky this kind of thing isn’t the norm for our area, and that I’m not someplace that needs evacuated on a yearly basis. On the other hand, that’s also probably at least part of the reason we got knocked so firmly on our asses- Ohio is so far inland we’ve got trees and above ground power lines out the wazoo. Anyway, I spent most of the week at my parents’ place, only got power back at the apartment about sevenish on Wednesday (possibly while stopping in to see if the power was back on, since the traffic light on the corner was out on the way in and lit on the out.

Anywho. Other than being more acquainted with Izuna 2, I haven’t much gaming news to report! And I didn’t do a heck of a lot else to make up for it. Don’t look at me, blame the weather!
