QUICK NOTE FOR NEW COMIC PAGES!

I want to make a request for all artists in the book: if you could, please use the upper-left corner of your page comic to display your comic's title, your name, and your comic's web address. This way, it will be much easier for readers to properly identify each comic, its author, and the web site where more of your comics can be found.

You'll never get there with all those Tholins attached to you; stick them in a DC10 by a volcano and drop nukes on it.

Or, you know, pray and stuff. ;)

We still have a long way to go. I'm going to start bugging everybody in the book to start posting the donation buttons on their sites so more people can donate!

Put it up on IMO and Doppies, and will make a newspost about it when the next updates strike. It would probably help more if they'd update more often... or had, you know, readers... ;)
