Well… today marks 26 pages into the ORIGIN prologue. As always, you can start reading from the first one to go back and catch the little things you might have missed… like the panel where you see that Deacon was packing the whole time, etc. Start Here.

ALSO– I just realized as I was uploading strips… but there are 501 or so strips in the archives now. Not a GIANT milestone compared to other guys, but hey, that’s a lot of stuff to read through! Remember when?

I’ve seen people send in their “milestone” strip numbers to news sites, but I think that’s lame. If someone really wants to report on it, that’s cool I guess…. but I’d feel weird being the guy with a press release saying “Hey, look at me! I drew 500 of these ones!” — Because, you know, soon it’ll be 1000, then 5000, then 10000….. then…. yeah.

SO! Book news.. or no news. I’ve been getting asked a lot about if there’s going to be an issue 6 of Yirmumah Monthly, and the answer is YES!… just not right this second. The strips are ready to go and I just have to do prepress stuff on it, but I’m still broke. I really did blow the Yirmumah “bankroll” going out to San Diego last minute– so it delays some YIrm stuff for now, but really, I’m enjoying the breather… I mean, if i had a hundreds of books to mail out myself at this very moment… OH, that might suck so bad right now. But YES.. there will be an issue 6 featuring all the strips in full color from June, etc….. THEN, I want to wait until the right time and put all the ORIGIN story to a certain point in a thicker book of some kind. Maybe even a smaller size than standard comic, and a little thicker. Not digest size but somewhere in between. Pretty much, my embellished life, in a semi-pocket sized thing. Just because.

Alright… back to work for me!
