Today’s strip is one that went through a few changes from the original rough sketch to the final one that actually went online – today’s first bonus is the original rough draft. The final panel is the only thing I wound up using from the original idea. I think the changes improved it… but if you disagree, enjoy the rough draft! Or for another take on the strip, try today’s second bonus, which is a sprite version of the strip. Thanks for voting!

A look sideways
Thursday, July 10th, 2008More bonuses
Wednesday, July 9th, 2008TopWebcomics was having problems for the past day or so, but it’s back up now – so for today’s first bonus, there’s a bad translation of today’s strip. And for the second bonus, there’s another look ahead, with a rough draft of tomorrow’s strip. Of course, I am putting them up a little late, so by the time you see them, they may be yesterday’s strip and today’s strip. But enjoy them anyway – Thanks for voting!
Round 2…?
Monday, July 7th, 2008Today’s new bonus is a sprite strip in which Ebb wants to know when the next round of Rumormonger Idol is going to start.
(But don’t worry… The answer is most likely not the one the judge gives!)
Looking ahead
Friday, July 4th, 2008This month in the comic: V3’s crew and the rumormongers get settled in their new universe (more or less), and contact is (re-)established (sort of) with the Station Authority.
This month on the site: A new site design should be appearing some time this month. (I’d say “will be,” but I think I’m safer with “should be!”)
For another look into the future (but not very far), today’s first bonus is a “rough draft” of tomorrow’s strip. (For “rough draft,” substitute “idea scribbled on a scrap of computer paper so I wouldn’t forget it.”) The second one (by request) is a look at the cover of the “What’s Wrong with the Universe?” book that’s been the topic of this week’s strips. Thanks for voting, and if you have a bonus request, feel free to post it here!
Welcome New Readers!
Friday, June 27th, 2008Since there seem to be a lot of people reading at the moment, I thought I’d take the opportunity to welcome any of you who happen to be new readers coming in from StumbleUpon, what appears to be the most successful ad campaign I’ve run on Project Wonderful, and of course anywhere else, too…
Welcome!
Make yourself at home, check out the three spinoffs, tell a friend about Station V3, say hello on the forum, get a copy of the book… Or (most importantly) just enjoy reading!
And for anyone who isn’t a new reader (and has read this blog post this far anyway), thank YOU for reading, too!
In other news, the ‘official’ version of the latest episode of PodWarp 1999 (“Dial F for Frankenstein” – the call-in show episode) is up on the site now. I was using the same headset as on the past few episodes, but on a different computer, and that seems to have worked much better. (So now you get to hear what I actually sound like!)
Finally, in voting bonus news, I finally closed the Rumormonger Idol round 1 poll – the results are up as today’s first bonus, and some parting words from the loser are up as the second one.
