Happy New Year 2009..

Happy New Year folks, just a couple of days left.

Funny story about this one: Originally they were counting the stars. Then I put that last panel in there with Gar catching the snowflake, but there was a problem. You can't see the stars if it's snowing. So I had the bright idea that they could just be counting snowflakes. But my brother (the writer) said no. How do you like that? Even though I wrote this one.

So anyway, some nice dialogue between Gar and Mac. I liked it through the whole process. That's something I don't often get. Bring on the 2009!!

What's that on the Horizon?

Merry Christmas Eve Eve!

This one was one of those jokes that I liked and wanted to see finished, but for some reason I couldn't get into the mood to color. I'm glad I didn't slap it together at the last minute to get it on time, because (just like last year's Christmas comic) I loved the way the coloring came out.

More Mort Christmas cynicalness. And the Muse as well! Haven't seen her in awhile, have we? Posey will crack him one day. I draw on my notes too.

A note on the layout of this comic, I thought maybe if I make the comic a horizontal style one this time it would help it go through the pipeline quicker. What do you guys think? I've got more tests coming..

It does tingle..

I would love to wait til the Star Trek movie comes out for this one, but I figured someone will think about this joke by then (in fact I'm sure it's been done by now) So here it goes up.. early for a change. If anybody's seriously confused, it's because Zachary Quinto is playing Spock in the upcoming Star Trek film. He's playing Sylar on Heroes.. so yeah.

I think that new coloring style's doing wonders. At least for a simple one like this. I used that new brush for the last comic.. I wonder if anyone noticed any change? I'm sure my astute readers noticed. How bout it guys?

A note to the blog readers: I need to get my old harddrive off of the old computer before I start putting up thumbnails for the comic. It'll happen here soon don't fret folks.

Same Apartment dot com request..

Ok, I updated the site edition of the comic after all these months after my computer died. I'll be back to putting up the normal blog updates and thumbnails in the comic archives soon here, but I'm concentrating more on this week's comic for now. But it's nice that now not only can you see both parts of the 100th comic up there (I was able to update on DA but not on the site, since I wasn't able to get to tomekeeper on another computer), you can also see all the current comics that are up. We're now up to SA#104, so that's good.

Funny thing is that according to Thurinus, I could've updated as soon as I got my new computer.. Not sure on the details, but that's my bad.

Anyway here's a request. Since the site's been dead, Same Apartment's stats on thewebcomicslist.com have completely flatlined. Help support Gar and crew there by checking out the comic on the site. All you have to do is click the link and check out the most current page at http://sameapartment.com/ Just click the link, if you like browse through the archives and if you haven't read the comics here on Deviantart, then you can read through them on the handy dandy browser. But even if you don't want to read or have already done so, then just click the link and move on to other interweb adventures.
Let's see if we can bring Same Apartment back to three digits again.
