As you can see in the photo above, Ebb is enjoying reading a copy of An Experimental Space Pod Visits Station V3! He's even got two extra copies just in case something happens to the first one. He thinks it would be nice if everyone had a copy!

(He's right, you know!)

I'm pretty happy with the way the book turned out, considering all the file had to go through to finally get uploaded! I had the original files for most of the strips I used (a few of them I re-scanned), but a lot of them needed to be tweaked a little to line up properly on the pages, and I started putting the book together over a year ago, on a different computer. The files survived the death of that computer, and I continued on this one, getting a prototype version of the book printed earlier this year. I liked the way it turned out, but I had a few things to change and/or add... A couple months later (and some hardware upgrades, and a switch from Windows XP to Linux), and it's finally done. Hopefully when I start putting together the next one, it won't be as complicated!

If any of you were thinking of ordering it and wanted it in time for Christmas, it'd probably be best to order it soon - according to Lulu's holiday deadlines, the closer it gets to Christmas Eve, the more expensive the shipping options are to get it on time. I know some of you have ordered it already - let me know what you think of it when you get it!
