Many of you are working hard on your artistic recaps of the chapters. Others are crafting short essays to look back on five years of SF. Those who do are eligible for a prize package which includes: 1. [...]
Sometimes, the most fun part of writing is the research. I love to learn about new things and Tarot Cards are certainly new territory for me. Not that anyone needs to know a thing about Tarot Cards to enjoy this strip. If you see things through Star Maiden’s eyes, you can enjoy just about anything. [...]

FAN ART: Captain Spectacular’s Choice by Barb Jacobs!

UPDATE: Unfortunately, the person scheduled to do the Chapter 11 Recap was unable to complete the project. However, tomorrow the Recaps will wrap up in fine style with Chapter 12, “Jackpot!” Also unfortunate: I’m battling a bad case of food poisoning and that’s why I haven’t been very present on the site in the past [...]

Our 5th Anniversary Celebration concludes today with this stellar “recap” of Chapter 12, “Jackpot!” from Steve VanDyken. Steve had the unenviable task of recapping a chapter that isn’t even finished yet, but his take on how it could end is wonderfully dark and cynical–and all the funnier for it. You’ll see how close he gets [...]
