[INSERT ENTIRE TIME TRAVEL STORYLINE FROM ORIGINAL UMLAUT HOUSE HERE]
((Oh, and you may want to reexamine your relative URLs. The Facts-Images-Opinions buttons work fine from the main page...but in the archives, there's a little /d/ inserted in there that magically transforms them into broken links.
(See, Alfador remembers seeing this comic in pencils, where I had an arrow pointing to the space between panels a and k with the text "insert entire storyline here".)
The world keeps on getting
smaller and smaller
and everything comes back
full circle, full circle six
degrees of separation
we all know someone else
it all comes full circle
--No Doubt, Full Circle Everything in Time
So far, Pierce and Rhonda have basically been a time-shifted, gender swapped version of Volair and Saundra. From here on out, their personalities should, hopefully, differentiate a bit. Friday's comic being a prime example ^.^
im glad to see a re-running of the "and how old were you when i suddenly decided to paint the kitchen green?" joke... i think it was my single most favorite strip from the U1 series
I cant say that things will be better if we change; what I can say is that we must change for them to get better
I took out the triticles because they don't have them in the "new" continuity. Pierce's shades and Rhonda's hair design are non-plot discontinuities, so I didn't bother changing them. But the triticles could theoretically reappear if I put them in, so I left them out.
I left them out because Pierce and Rhonda both have more circuitry in their own heads than they'd have in a floating device of this kind.
Y'know, I gotta' start associating this comic and forum with something more innocent. My eyes have been trying to tell my brain that it's "tri" but I kept reading "tes" instead; it's just like that misread of Detail Bear's signature a couple years back.

Yup. Also, Rhonda's ears look WAY different in the past. This is a temporal ripple that was unavoidable in linking the two comics, as with Pierce's shades.
The character redesign just changed things, and I gave up on modifying my comics too much more heavily since I didn't save them at full resolution. (Which does not bode well for a print run.)

It's an insinuation of impropriety, not an implied accusation. Besides, I'm not casting accusations at you, "you pore innocent flower, you."
Allan, would you really do a print run of the original strips?

I don't have the original 300-dpi scans of any of Umlaut House. This puts a significant damper on any plans for print I might have. The prints look.. BARELY adequate at newspaper strip size, which is awfully small.
I guess it really depends on demand, free time, and how in love with the idea of doing print comics I am.
