The Plant’s Relative

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

One of the Plant’s relatives has come to visit… Obviously not a very close relative, since this one has leaves! (And also tomatoes at some point, we hope.)

The site redesign continues with an update of the comic archive navigation – there are new arrow buttons, the story selection dropdown box is now available on all archive pages (and has been updated to include some of the storylines after 2005), and buttons have been added for some of the social bookmarking sites out there.

And on the voting bonus front, there’s a bad translation of today’s strip, and a sprite strip in which two rumormongers disagree about disagreeing.

Father’s Day

Sunday, June 17th, 2007

Happy Father’s Day to any fathers who might be reading this!

There are two sprite strips on the subject up as today’s voting bonuses: The first one has a visit from Morty’s father (or maybe not), and the second one is a very unsuccessful reenactment of a certain scene from The Empire Strikes Back.

Another alternate

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

Two new voting bonuses up today: The first one is an alternate version of today’s strip (unlike the alternate strip the other day, this one was done after the one that actually went up), and the second one is a sprite strip in which two rumormongers try to figure out what to talk about now that Rumormonger Idol is over.

Thanks for voting!

Another slight change…

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

I don’t know if it really counts as a site update, but I’ve started putting labels on the blog posts. You might not think that’s a very big change… and you’d probably be right. But I’ll do it anyway.

And speaking of slight changes, I made a few to today’s strip before I put it up. The strip as I originally drew it is up as a voting bonus (and a bad translation of today’s strip is up as another) – the differences are in the third and fourth panels, where originally the plotter fish didn’t say anything.

Music to Breakaway by

Monday, August 30th, 2004

I had a nice surprise when looking through a box of records at a flea market yesterday… I found a Space: 1999 soundtrack album, with the first season theme and music from some of the first season episodes. There’s a lot that can be (and has been) said about a show where a nuclear waste explosion throws the Moon out of orbit, and clear out of the solar system so it encounters a new system and possibly inhabitable planet (though of course they can’t move there) nearly every week… but the music is good! (And I like the show, even though – or maybe because – a lot of the episodes don’t make a whole lot of sense.)

On a Station V3-related note, the voting incentives up today at buzzComix and TopWebcomics are early sketches of a character that may be appearing in the comic in the near future!
