death.... and rebirth
Kristen Gudsnuk on March 11, 2009
as you may have guessed, this comic is dead. :( it had a good run, a very long run. But I decided that it was too much to handle– too plotty, too… EPIC. when you set out with a giant story on your shoulders, as I did, you'd better have lots and lots of time on those shoulders, which I didn't and don't.
I thought, this comic is so much fun to do, but it's so flawed, and it's eating my life.
So now I have a new comic, “The Optimist” http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Optimist/ which won't be so epic, although it is a lot cleaner writing-wise and pacing-wise. And it has a beginning, will have a middle, and will definitely have an end. It isn't manga per se, but I hope you'll all check it out and read it!! This is a character from it– I just doodled it in photoshop, while avoiding doing any work. :) her name is Jadwiga!
Thanks guys and xoxoxoxo!

I'll be sad to see this one go, but I'm so glad you're back and doing a comic again ^.^

thanks guys for the comments! I know what you mean, theorah-- cause they END. and the ending is almost always the best part, if it's done right.

when I saw that misfits had updated, I was like...'what the?!' 0_0 Well, Ill check out this new comic for sure! I personally prefer short comics, they feel more satisfying to read :)

Awwww no worries. Running to comics at once is really hard (I know, i'm doing it right now o_o) I am enjoying The Optimist very much ^^.
