One Whole Week...

Well...I lasted one whole week without Internet. And that proved to be too much. Really it was the first time I did an update for this strip without having access at home that made me decide that I needed it back. So, as of Tuesday, I should be back up and running. I'm still going strong on the whole no cable thing. We'll see how long that lasts.

This Weeks Strip...

This week's strip is about comic-con. It's timely as next weekend I will be in Chicago for Wizard World (a vary large comic book convention held every year). What can I say, I'm a comic book geek. There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, if you enjoy this comic it's probably a good thing as it most likely wouldn't exist if I weren't a comic book geek.

Goin' to Wizard World Chicago...

In the past I've gone purely for fun. Meet some comic people, buy some stuff, get sketches, that kind of thing. And while I will be doing some of that this year, my main goal is to pimp out this website as much as possible and try to get some new readers. So if you're here as a result of meeting me at comic-con...Welcome. I'm not going to be at a table, they're kind of expensive and I don't really have any thing to show. Instead I plan on getting the word out there by walking around the con and handing out these...

...I had a collectable trading card printed up to hand out. They came out real nice, full color on both front and back. If you didn't make it to con and want one, just let me know and I can try to get you one. I've already handed a few out and they seem to be accomplishing their purpose as I've had a few people tell me already that, because of the card, they've checked out and enjoyed the website.

Next Week on "Wombat"...

I should probably also mention here that because I'll be at the con next week, there may not be a strip next weekend. I have one planned (kinda a follow up to this one), but it all depends on if I have time to get it done before I leave. As always, I'll post a bullitin on MySpace when I put the next one up.

UPDATE 6/27/08

It's been kinda a crazy busy week just with regular stuff and then also fighting with AT&T all week to get my internet up and running (yes, the fact that you are reading this right now indicates it is finnaly working). So I didn't get a strip done. I'm leaving for Wizard World today and won't be back for a couple of days, so I'm just going to go ahead and skip this week. New strips pick up next week.
