Can you believe it’s been well over a year since you’ve seen new episodes? You probably can. I know our hiatuses are punishingly long, but we always come back…and that counts for something, right? Marc and I are committed to finishing this story, but as we’ve gotten older and responsibilities have increased, it’s just harder [...]

I must say, it’s so good to be back. This is, admittedly, a bit of a quiet beginning to this more low key chapter. Quiet before the storm, I’m telling you…

Atomic Fly is in the house! And leaving soon with Captain Spectacular. But the really important thing here…the thing you must know…is that on Wednesday we will finally reveal the Secret Origin of The Atomic Fly. That’s right, kids. Christmas comes early this year.

Originally, I was going to draw this chapter myself. I actually did draw the first four strips, but when it came time to do more I realized it just all felt so wrong. I shouldn’t be drawing the SuperFogeys right now, not the way they are now. This is Marc’s territory. This particular strip was [...]

Oh, Space Pig. We rarely hear from you, but when we do, you’ve always got interesting things to say. Anyone notice his new look? I’ve been wanting to get Space Pig in those goggles forever, and now there’s finally an excuse to do it! See you on Monday!

By now, it should be clear that this is a real “breather” of a chapter. We’re taking stock, assembling the team, diving into Percy a little and, through him, the various characters who pass through this story. At least on the New California side, anyway. It’s prelude to the insanity that’s coming in the next [...]
I don’t know about you, but anytime anyone introduces squishiness into my war room, it just makes me mad. See you on Monday!

What do you think? Is Cap right? Can anyone be redeemed? On Monday, we hit a big one. 800 strips. And if you think we’re going to celebrate by catching up with Jerry…well, you’re right! But there’s no way you’re prepared for where he is.

Please give a hearty clap to artist Marc Lapierre for today’s incredible splash page. Not only is this our big finish to this short chapter, but it’s such a great recreation of a very special moment from a movie I’m guessing you’re all pretty well familiar with at this point. What is Jerry doing and [...]
