I decided that I own my comic, not the other way around. If I'm late a day, then that's how it goes. Though being on time would be nice.

I'm trying to make my strip end around Stanley Cup finals. Instead a year I call it a season.

Hey, it actually had an ending! That means it died peacefully in it's sleep after a long life, or something.

A webcomic author is never late. He is always on time. He posts when he feels like it, and that is that time that his comic updates.

That is true. :roll: Heh heh. And maybe I'll do one or two shorts related to it. I'd been kicking around the idea about doing one that explained Tamit and her relationship with Time. Or maybe Mortality.

I'll do it IF I can write them without turning them into cheesy slap-on add on sequels that authors have this terrible habit of doing. So long as they don't jump shark, you know?

Maybe they'll be extras for the book.

I'm another one with a buffer. I recently switched to color with #50. I built up a buffer of them and so I've been going back and adding color to the first 49 strips.

Jamie and Nick went without missing an update for almost 4 years. I think in the entire time about 4 comics were late. Not counting server crashes.
I have yet to be late with a Banished! strip.

My Niece Web comic is habitually late because I don't have the time to do any buffers for it, much less DO a comic. Hopefully over the summer, I'll have all the free time in the world to make a buffer so HUGE that a school semester will pass and it'll never be late.

My Credenza comic hasn't been late yet, but that's because its only 2 comics deep :D
This has been the Dark Spider...

I'm trying to get a buffer built up, which is a good idea, since it's taking longer to do the comic now that I attempt to shade it. With the storyline I have plenty of buffer...even though I really don't know where it's gonna end up, I have enough material for at least a couple years, even if I ever decide to update more often.

My comic is never late, nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to.


I think that what I just said may be a huge lie and very lame at the same time. I am not sure though.
