Milestone Update! (Patreon)

The most recent milestone was to go back and finish up most of the uncolored/uninked strips- at least, as many as possible- and I specifically included the infamous lost 2006 Halloween color strip. Today's Halloween episode is, in fact, that strip! 

I'd recently found the old line art, re-scanned it, reworked and updated it, just in time for it's 10th Anniversary! :)

Several of the strips (such as "Starslip") have long since ended, and in two cases- the ferret at the turntables and the slug guy- it's been so long I can't even recall the name of the strips they were originally from.

Other characters, such as Zintiel, are shown as they were originally drawn 10 years ago- from a part of their strip's storyline from 2006. :)

But, quite a few places in the original artwork were filled with simple scribbles, placeholders 'til I could refine the sketch and ink it. Several of those I've long since forgotten who I was going to originally draw, so I filled them in with more current characters.

Oh, and Kevyn and Bandit's dialogue? When the original strip was drawn, Kevyn had just been killed off in the strip "Schlock Mercenary", coming back to life on Halloween day as a zombie (and then later time-cloned. :) 

Bandit's line refers to Kevy's epaulets- the hovering rank insignia. In Schlock Mercenary, his particular insignia, being a mad inventor type, were actually incredibly powerful antimatter grenades, which, as a mercenary, he carried around "just in case." :)

(It all made a little more sense back in the day. :)
