Future Plans for Site
Well, it’s not a comic but it’s a picture of Vagrond and Bryan Orion riding four wheelers. Really more of a logo like the one on this page. This website isn’t dead, but the basic problem is that because I wrote Evil of the SMO! nine years ago (anniversary this March!) it doesn’t really capture my interest enough to draw a comic from it every week. It’s much more interesting if I draw something that Chaerb wrote, or something being written as I go along. Chaerb, however, has ceased to write anything at all except the occasional H.P. Lovecraft movie pitch, and if I write something as I go, fun as it may be, it gets wrong fast.
I would like to continue The Classical Space Adventures of my Father by Earth President Vagrond the Second, and actually put effort into the writing as well as the drawings. However this requires a little thing called editing, I don’t have time to write, edit AND draw new comics on a week to week basis given that other thing I do. Being creative SOMETIMES does help me be more productive the rest of the time, though, so I don’t want to give this up.
The current plan is, unless Chaerb writes more Wagner, to turn Evil of the SMO! into an illustrated short story in PDF form. ETA is pretty hard to say, but to give myself a limit I’ll say before September 1st this year. I’ll leave comments open on this thread for the constant spam lulz.
Since this website’s not updating for a few months I should note that several of my favorite webcomics that Wikipedia doesn’t consider notable just yet have started updating again after a strangely coordinated hiatus:
Calamities of Nature:
http://www.calamitiesofnature.com/
Intragalactic:
http://intragalacticcomic.com/
West of Bathurst:
http://westofbathurst.com/
Also the Wikipedia listed webcomic XKCD finally made a joke about the same Star Trek:The Next Generation Episode we did 2 years ago:
Theirs: http://xkcd.com/715/
Ours (part of a larger series so good luck trying to understand it out of context): http://giantspacelizard.com/2008/08/02/wagner-a-wall-of-lights-page-09/
Thus proving we are on the cutting edge of pop culture from the early 90s.

Just a note to say we’re still on track, so please check back here on September 1st! If you need something to stay busy until then, first you can check the Giant Space Lizard! blogroll which was relocated to this page: http://giantspacelizard.com/search/ and second you can check out Jon Rosenberg’s latest webcomic http://amultiverse.com/ which has been faithfully updating every weekday since he started it.

I normally delete all SPAM but I decided to leave in the above one just in case someone stops by and decides to make a Spamusement comic out of it.
