Poor, poor, Sean

Hi, it's BCN. Just to let everyone know that Sean will be out for awhile. His computer is DEAD, D-E-A-D, DEAD. It's a shame too, he just got his internet back up. I will be going and checking it out this weekend, so hang tight for alittle bit until we bring his computer back to life, and he gets back to work on photoshop.

A Completely Arbitrary Milestone..

Internet's down, I'll put it up proper once I have the means at home.. Until then, you can find the comic on the deviantart page here

It's been a long time. Too long. Sorry folks I've had a rough week the fnal straw of which being my internet is again not working (I'm typing this at my parents' house, which explains why it's not up on the website). But I found out something regarding the comic. I work best in the hours that I'm usually at work. That explains why I've been so sporatic on the comic lately. yesterday, after fiddling around with the third and fourth panels all day, I finished the fourth and fifth panels in record time for me lately and not only that but did all the lettering before ten in the morning. So maybe I should set aside that time on my days off from 11PM to 8AM.

But on to the festivities! Pop the confetti and throw the champagne, Same Apartment finally reached one HUNDRED comics. It took awhile longer than I thought, but we finally reached three digits. Yes folks this is why Proto Gar is so angry. It also took a bit of time, but I finally brought Same Apartment under the huge umbrella of webcomics that have their creators charicatured in the comic. In the second panel, that's me (in the orange), John (my brother the writer, in blue), and as a third bonus reference to one of the comic series that helped pave the way for a bigger webcomic BCN, the third creator of S'mores Force.

Again, sorry for the lateness folks, I can't promise no late comics in the future, but I hope that more often than not we'll actually have an on time quality product. Speaking of the future, I've also got something in the works, something hopefully big. Here's to more of Gar, Posey Mort and Mac, and of course the fifth character, the Same Apartment.

The end of double digits..

It is finally done. I haven't slept in about 24 hours, but it's done.

Some explaining must be done. Originally about three years ago (this October actually), I made up Same Apartment with my brother and it was a random little comic starring a cat named Gar and a rabbit named Posey. We thought up a couple of comics and characterizations and we came to the conclusion that Gar would be the random zany guy and Posey would be the serious straight angry character. Sound familiar to anyone?

Anyway, what we started to realize was that it was pretty much exactly like many other video game comics out there. Sure there's nothing inherently wrong with that but we wanted to make it different. And so on the last of the comics with double digits, we harken back to a simpler time when what we now call PROTO Gar and Posey were just a simple duo making fun of video games.

This and the next comic are a sort of bridge into the 100s and so it'll continue next week. Both comics though have a reference to my other comic projects that lead up to Same Apartment, ones that though short lived, helped me learn the skills needed to put a polished comic together. See if you can find the references here.

That's the end of double digits peoples.
