Woo-hoo! We're just about there and this week we're doing what I'm calling a “pre-launch.” It's about 95% up and running and while the official launch (and announcements) is about a week away, we're rolling out the site now to any and all of you that would like to head on over and check it out.
You're gonna find all kinds of goodies there that are not available here on Drunk Duck. Things like a characters breakdown, easy and instant navigation of the archives and “story so far” page. I'll go into more details next week, but for now I'd encourage everyone to head on over to:
Freakin short people. As someone who is 6-2, I will now take this opportunity to laugh at someone elses expense. MMwwwaaaahahahahaha!
...and I'm done now.
Stone Hydra - Good questions, all. Tangerine was fired from the Society of Heroes for (apparently) attempting to kill Dictator Tot. At the point, it was a foregone conclusion he would go to Valhalla. For more on that and to answer just about any other question you may have, I heartily suggest going to the new site linked above. There's a "story" page there that will catch you up quickly on the first four chapters, as well as a "characters" page where you can find all the necessary info on who these people are and what they're currently up to. Thanks for being curious!
ok im a bit confused, wasent he gust deling with the resintly exaped dictatortot with the rest of the heros. why did he retier, is thare a conection. shuld i care and many more questions to be asked. some one hates space pig, why do i get the fealing tangerine and swifty will be a fun pare to be arouned.
Sorry for not commenting earlier in the day. My workplace firewall just placed DD on the "no" list. Don't know what I'm gonna do about that.
ghostrunner - Siphon wha?
ToonmanAZ - Thanks! I feel like I'm just starting to get to know Tangerine.
rufus edge - Thanks for checking the site out! Star Maiden is definitely a fave.
NYJ - I am feeling a bit better now, thanks. Yeah, I'd say there's a fair bit of tension between T and Pig. But...why? Readers of the online version of SF Collection #2 (no longer available, actually) should be especially curious. And yes, I decided to switch to these word balloons with the beginning of Chapter 5. The old ones just weren't practical anymore. Hope they work for you.
mattchee - Thanks for checking it out! And really, REALLY glad you like Tangerine. Introducing a new character is always a bit of an iffy proposition.
Chip - Wow, you're right. It does! I think you'll see pretty quickly why it's not. I don't think this chapter has really lived up the promise of its title yet...but it will.
Smik - I think this will be more clear on Thursday, but I don't think Swifty is reacting to Tangerine's PRESENCE as much as he's reacting to what Tangerine is DOING.
amanda - See my response to Smik above. Isn't that header bar slick? I love that thing. I only contributed the artwork, but the full design credit goes to the team at Th3rd World.
Jabali - Thanks!
Dawn - Thanks so much. It was a group effort, but I think its all been worth it.
Miss Annoying - Me too. That lady writes herself.
Diggin the new website! VERY sharp!
Lookin into doing my own site for my comic as well.. working on it actually.. but not nearly as cool.
And tangerine... love tangerine!
The site is one of the best I have seen... (DD's last site before the upgrade is the best... sorry) Knowing that, your new site is the best of today!!!!!
I can see why you were fatigued... hope you are all better now!!!
Great page... so T and Pig have tension?
*also just noticed... going with different word bubbles again... I know it has been for a few comics now... it takes me some time to get things...

Jabali at 11:13AM, Sept. 9, 2008
great stuff.
amanda at 8:09AM, Sept. 9, 2008
Hmm, Swifty looks surprised (or appalled maybe) to see Tangerine! I very much like the header bars on the new site - they're fun ^.^
smkinoshita at 6:14AM, Sept. 9, 2008
While I love Star Maiden's one liner, I'm curious as to Swifty's reaction and history with Tangerine...

This reads like a chapter wrap up.
