The Station, The Galaxy, and Other Things

Saturday, May 1st, 2010

You wouldn’t know it from the amount I’ve been posting on the blog here lately, but the past few months have been the busiest in terms of visitors/site traffic/etc. since the comic started! So I’d like to say hello to all the new readers, and thank everyone for reading! (Hello! Thank you!)

Tomorrow is Free Comic Book Day (or today, depending on when you read this) – In previous years I’d sometimes bring a photocopied and stapled Station V3 mini-comic to Comics on the Green and Unknown Comics, and they’d be nice enough to let me put it out on the table with the other free comics. However, since a good number of you don’t happen to live in Northeast Pennsylvania, this year instead you can download the PDF version of An Experimental Space Pod Visits Station V3 for free!

In other news, coming up on May 6, Station V3 turns 7! In addition to the (virtual) cake and ice cream, the annual guest strip week will be coming up the following Sunday to celebrate!

And finally, there’s a new bonus strip up to see when you vote for Station V3 at TopWebcomics – by request, the station’s original Plant is back for revenge!

Cameo, Wallpaper, and Bonus

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

The Cameo: A Rumormonger recently put in a brief appearance in AA Vrooman’s comic a2alien (along with a few aliens from some other comics)!

The Wallpaper: Kent Paul Dolan recently sent some very nice desktop wallpaper he made from this Sunday strip:

(Click to see the full-size version!)

The Bonus: I recently found a page of strips sketched out for the Escape Pods in the Swamp storyline from last year – some used, some not. One of the sketches is now up as the new bonus at TopWebcomics – vote and see!

Q16 Milestone

Sunday, December 27th, 2009

There’s a milestone reached in the Station V3 universe today – Silence in the Darkness on Q16 had its 1,000th strip go up today!

(Most of them are dark, and many are also silent – but there are 1,000 of them!)

Secret Santa!

Saturday, December 26th, 2009

I took part in a Web Comic Secret Santa exchange this year, and got a very nice comic from Jessica Perrie of Lusus Naturae – see the rest of it here! I sent a strip to Alice Otter, which you can currently see at the Secret Santa site.

Mansion Pirates!

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

In a flashback scene in today’s strip at The Mansion of E, it’s revealed that the space pirates once visited there. Take a look, if you haven’t seen it already! (Or even if you have – the Mansion of E is always worth visiting!)
