Monday Early Sunday!

I'm off to a shoot!
So Monday is early early early! See it here tonight on Sunday!

You know, I may just keep things in color as the coloring of the strip is no longer the time intensive part of the process. Oddly, it's the writing part that takes hours and hours.

Let me know what you guys think about staying in color...or colour if you prefer...

And lest we forget...

Let's see how long THIS lasts...

OK, new comic. I have a gig this Monday so it is possible that Monday's strip will be delayed... But I have a strip in mind already.

AT SOME POINT...

...I will build up a buffer of three to four weeks. Just not this week. But if I am to survive this must take place.

Oh and just so that you can't say that I didn't...

Monday and a new week!

I have two new Vexxarr's ready for the offering. I'll post them this morning and hopefully, stay on schedule from here forward. I finished the project of doom (thank you all for your kind words) and I managed to get some sleep too. I gotta tell ya, I went 72 hours on less than 5 hours sleep total. My mind was in a truly funky place for awhile there.

After about nine hours of solid sleep last night, I feel like myself again...which is to say paranoid, neurotic and generally irrational.

So look forward to two strips today and two more this week.

I'm back!

Hybernating...

A new Vexx the very moment I awaken. I have suffered through my paying projects and emerged if not victorious, at least very, very sleepy. So even as you read this...I am asleep...dreaming of Friday's strip...which will be late...of course.

So I give you this...

Wednesday!

I'll have both Monday and Wednesday's comic posted by Noon. This will bring me up to date. Both will be in color. One will be funny.

Hey, it's 3:30am here and I've been working at this edit suite since 11:00am!


Don't make me bring out the weasels!

Monday's is on the way IN COLOR!

Above find a chromatically enhanced strip for both Wednesday and Friday...

Note that the Archives already have pages for those days as well. Monday's is written...always a good start...and will be up some time...well...Monday.

Although which Monday I cannot say.

What? Grumbling? Be glad I offer only this and do not compound thine insult with hedgehogs!

Where is Vexxarr?

Vexxarr is safe and written three days in advance now. I've been finishing a series of videos for Auntie Litter (it's a pun) which are due Monday. Due in this case means in the duplicator's hands somewhere in Tennessee. Today I'm with family and this evening - if I'm lucky - I'll get back and get to post new Vexxarr's for everyone (yes - even you).

I won't miss a post because I'm 'tired'. I've been tired for three weeks now and that hasn't kept me out of the gym or away from my edit suite. After this, I look forward to getting the Vexx back on schedule and back online. I'm sorry about the delays but I assure you the comics do exist and they will be funny. If not, I refund all your money.

All of it.

Too Good To Last!

NO Vexxarr for Wednesday...

Sorry...

I'll post it Friday, most likely, with Friday's as well. I have two written - which as you know is rare - but I'm under a work deadline that will not allow me to post tonight. Please accept my apology and as is the custom...that means both strips will be in color!

For now, take a look at some thumbnail sketches I did for Vexxarr's Hyperdrive Sabot. The final design is also there - slightly immature.

Rest assured that all three of this week's strips will be posted by Friday!

Thanks!

It's been awhile...

But the past two strips have been on time. I have already said far too much about my schedule, the woes of being freelance and my persistent rash. Wait, I never mentioned the persistent rash did I?

Let's just pretend that never happened...

Anyway. New Vexxarr in the offering. I hope you like the Marconians. Twenty brownie points to the first person who can tell me why they are called Marconians.

100 brownie points to the person that can then tell me if I've spelled it right.

10,000 brownie points to the person who sends me actual BROWNIES (the food - not the proto Girl Scout).

So you have your homework. Get to it!

New Comic and it's Late!

I have today's comic! You, however, do not. I'll update after today's shoot.

I promise.

Tuesday, February 14, 2006

New comic! AND it's EARLY!

Yes - early. You read right. I'll be on a shoot so I'm uploading this strip early for YOU! Things are back to gray now with some changes. I do shadowing to make my art look cooler. Thank you all for the support. And thank you all for the kind reception I've gotten over the past few strips. You seem to like what I am doing and I do as well!

Also...

I will be putting hand-drawn art on eBay this coming week. If you would be interested in bidding, let me know! If you would be interested in buying original artwork, tell me!

Thank you all and please - get some sleep for me.

End Of Storyline

And I edited the comic a bit. I didn't like my background work so I went back this morning and made some elaborations in the scenery. I do this for you. Because my love for you is so strong...

So, next week, new story. Seems like Vexxarr is picking up quite the menagerie. I promise it won't become Yogi's ark or something stupid. I will say that there is yet another character in the works. I'll spoil nothing but I'll give you a hint: sesquicentennial...

Read on dear readers and I'll see you Monday!

Please contact/annoy/ chastise me in our resplendent FORUMS...

It's Always Something!

This is the comic for Monday the 6th of February. I'm at the Bonaventure in Weston Florida and they have some form of evil firewall that prevents me from uploading the comic for today with any speed or reliability. I can see the FTP site. I just can't upload or list.... or I couldn't...until I found a hack for recalcitrant firewalls...

So here is Vexxarr for Monday the 6th. I'll try to get the archives up too...but the way the firewall is acting, don't hold your breath.

Human Sleep Deprivation experiment Continues...AGAIN!

Ok, the deal:

I'm doing three videos for three separate clients. I have a lot of work to do and barely have enough time to squeeze in Vexxarr. You hear me? I barely have time but I DO have time.

So.

Vexxarr will be late but in color (as is the habit now) and you will get your thrice weekly dose of alien goodness.

My solemn vow: So long as Vexxarr is in publication, you WILL get three strips a week. When you look at the archives, there will be a strip there for every M W and F of the calendar year. If they are late, my sincere apologies but they will be there.

My goal on this project was to take on a graphic challenge that had me updating consistently three days a week in perpetuity. This will always be true. As I become more accustomed to the time it takes to post a strip, I promise they will start updating closer to the time they are supposed to update - as soon as I get to the end of the current (oh so appreciated) freelance projects.

Vexxarr forever!

...or until I die.

Human Sleep Deprivation experiment Concludes!

After two weeks of less than five hours of sleep, I finally have time off.

Vexxarr is up only a DAY late which is above par for the past several strips. He's still color and I may just keep it that way...

As for my mental health I have found that I no longer need sleep and am now embarking upon a program of late night exercise. Often kangaroo Arizona cellphone to turquoise when mice explode. They moot council hamster radio Einstein to Florida. Popsicle credit card baboon?

Human Sleep Deprivation experiment Continues

New Vexxarr just as soon as I get home and shower...or sleep. I'm working on a Awards video for medical professionals. I have been here for two days.

Kill me...

Updated!

Here, for your reading pleasure, are Monday's and Tuesday's Vexxarrs. Note the color. This may be a thing - as it were.

But you tell me.

Now off to sleep for nearly four, entire, uninterrupted hours. Oh the luxury. Oh the bohemian lifestyle...

Deertick Apocalypse

I have missed my update. I have been editing a series of PSA's for an environmental group for two days straight now. I'll be done by 12:00 noon Tuesday and THEN will get a chance to update Vexxarr. I'll have Wednesdays done by Tuesday night and I'll think of some way to make it up to you all!

Blood perhaps...

In color...

Monday's Vexxarr

As I was out of town this weekend, Vexxarr will be late but up Monday. I'm revising a video project (yet again) at the right and propper hour of 3:00am. If I survive, Vexxarr will be in color...again.

Blarg.
