What's the deal with achewoodstore.com? Everything I tried to buy is sold out and I was gonna buy like a heap of things.

I got it to put a framed strip in the shopping cart but other than that I had the same experience :(

he's been in that van since May 9th, how much more bummed can he get

I was bored this morning:

September 10th is the date of the last published Achewood strip at which point it was 127 days since our last workplace give-a-gently caress. 127 days before September 10th is May 6th, right between the end of the Phillipe Goes Home storyline (May 4) and the start of the High School storyline (May 9).

I enjoyed this one than the previous two. I'd still like more comics, but I'm convinced that I'll renew my Fanflow again in the hope that there will still be more celebrations of the English language :)

That's the thing, though. There comes a time where we're all "oh god why won't he stop hitting me SCREW HIM I'M OUT" but then he takes me out to a dinner show with a hysterical, beautiful, incredibly clever and likeable comic and everything is forgiven, until a month later where the cycle begins anew.

Slight changes to the above and there it is: ladies and gentlemen, we are in an abusive relationship :(

On the one hand I totally felt where he was coming from. I think everyone who has ever tried a creative project has felt this way at one point or another.

On the other hand gently caress yes people who haven't gotten the content and merchandise that they paid for are entitled to complain! He wrote an essay on how people who get free content in little pieces shouldn't bitch on his microsubscription service. :psyduck:

Speaking for myself, I don't see my Assetbar subscription getting reactivated to see more chapbooks and potential half-formed things. I'll take the suggestion of leaving it to RSS (in the same category as PBF - "updates rare as the dickens").


e: Is there an RSS feed for only the achewood.com updates and not the assetbar subscription? I can't find one now :saddowns:

Also this has always been one of the most profoundly depressing Achewood strips, and there wasn't any doubt in my mind that it was due to Onstad's circumstances, but I only just now realized this was Molly's final appearance in the comic Molly disappeared from the strip entirely shortly after this.

This is the last strip with Molly in it that I could find: December 2, 2010 ... I wouldn't really call it "disappearing from the strip" as this date is less than twenty strips from when everyone disappeared :smith:

I tried for 15 minutes on ohnorobot, and I can't find the strip where Vlad and Teodor are on Vlad's radio show, and Vlad has some quote like 'I am registerink patent in millenium you spend speaking of ...'. Is that too vague? I'm freaking out.

Bfeh! You are failed by marketplace.

I ended up searching for "Disney" because I remembered Vlad doing his show on the pretext that Onstad went to Disneyland. Perhaps too much of my brain is dedicated to Achewood.

We will just have to agree to disagree. Everyone has their own perception of Ray and cast in their head.
I just see a fairly huge difference between Ray charming the pants off a lady(and then wearing a crown as he wrote about it in his diary) and Ray expressing his desire to suckle on Pat's (currently nonexistent) man-titties.

Ray's clumsiness at being a breast man is well established. loving hell Ray.
