Strange coincidence, update, random news

Saturday, March 21st, 2009

In yesterday’s strip (3/20), a rumormonger added two and two to get 4,376. I had considered several other numbers – like 22, for example – before deciding on a number that included the answer and the phone exchange of somewhere I used to live. Coincidentally, as pointed out by a reader, the asteroid 4376 Shigemori was discovered on 3/20/1987 – 22 years ago. Maybe I meant to do that?

In other site news, I’ve updated the links page, and added another page with links to fellow Palace in the Sky comics.

And in other non-Station V3 webcomic news:

Robert Cook’s comic The Mansion of E recently hit the 2,000 strip mark. Congratulations, Robert!

While there haven’t been any new episodes of PodWarp 1999 uploaded since January, it’s not dead yet! There are more episodes on the way. If you have any suggestions for a future episode, you can post them on the PodWarp forum. Meanwhile, Mark Mekkes and I were among the people on the latest live episode of The Gigcast.

And speaking of PodWarp, fellow PodWarper Ben Paddon has put out a Jump Leads book! Fun stuff.

More bonuses

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

After drawing the first version of today’s strip, I decided the four panels could be condensed into three, and a new last panel added – so I drew the version you see above. But the original version won’t go to waste… It’s today’s first voting bonus! The second one is a bad translation of today’s strip. Thanks for voting!

To help celebrate the 7th birthday of Zeera the Space Pirate, I sent over a guest strip – or at least an alternate universe version of one!

Happy Birthday Zeera!

Some exciting webcomic news from Mark Mekkes today! It’s been almost three months now since Zortic, Zoie, Splink and Co. disappeared… But Zortic’s back now with Z2! (And Mark assures us other familiar faces will soon follow.)
