I gotta say… I did not expect this chapter to be this long. 44 strips. That ranks it among the very longest of chapters. I think in that you can see the scope of this Invasion storyline. Everything you’ve seen so far… everything in Part One… it’s all been setup for what’s to come. I [...]

Today’s strip is a tour de force and the result of a lot of hard work on Marc’s part. New characters are always a risky move because they take time away from the characters you love, but I think it’s important to establish that Valhalla is a lot bigger than we’re used to seeing. I [...]

Welcome to Chapter 16 – Invasion, Pt. 3: Secrets, Secrets Are No Fun. This promises to be a big, bold chapter taking us right through SF 500. You just know that one’s going to be HUGE. I can say no more right now. Newer SuperFans may be unfamiliar with Soviet Sam’s story. He’ll be telling [...]

Have ever been in trouble–and I mean big time–and you thought there was still a way out of it? I mean, there’s caught and then there’s caught. If your sin is big enough, you might deny, deny, deny–even to the point of convincing yourself. You’ve done nothing wrong. They must just be mistaken. Maybe you [...]

When last we left Spy Gal she had found out her husband, Jerry, was living a triple life as the founder of Valhalla and the villainous Third Man. Then she found out a whole bunch of other stuff. It’s been a rough day. One of the things that was extremely important to me in this [...]

Atomic Fly and Raptor X are two of the newer Fogeys introduced during this alien invasion super arc, but I already kind of love them. Atomic Fly in particular. I know introducing new characters to such a long-running story with an established cast can be problematic, but hopefully you guys are enjoying these little peeks [...]

Okay, this is not going to be immediately apparent upon reading this strip, but believe it or not that last panel is fairly significant. For a few years in a row we posted teaser posters that hinted at upcoming storylines. The last one we did was in April of 2012. I really, really, honestly thought [...]

It’s nice to finally, fully reveal the Northern Dissenters. I think they’ve been talked about a lot, but we haven’t seen too much of them. They obviously play a big part in the end of the chapter, but also into the next. I look forward to seeing what you guys make of them. PODCASTING! Marc [...]

This is it! The final scene of this chapter! I really appreciate how Marc staged this one. You know where people are based, primarily, on head turns. Pretty good trick. I also pretty much love Cap’s “not amused” face in panel 2. See you on Wednesday with 683!
