As many of you may know, I make exclusive event comics and hand them away at each con I go to. Fanime is no different – except for the part where I actually got to hand them away.
Somewhere in between getting copies printed, taken home, put in the box for the event, and taken to Fanime, the stack of photocopies vanished. I tore the house apart twice, searched my car 3 times, the boxes at the table at Fanime twice, and still couldn’t find the buggers.
So I promised the people who came by that I would post this year’s Fanime exclusive comic to the website.
(then found them under a box that evening).
So HERE IT IS! The Fanime 2010 exclusive event comic!
You can thank my superb organizational skills.

Hey, look! More content!
So if you haven’t read the announcement at the top, you probably don’t know that the Katgirl and I are at Fanime this weekend, from Friday through Monday. We will be in Artist’s Alley at tables 205 and 206 while the hall is open.
We do have a few things we’re doing you might be interested in:
I am hosting a panel with Barry Smith and Erin Milligan:
Q & A with Webcartoonists – Saturday morning May 29th at 10am in Panel room 3.
Kat and I will be having a DeviantART meet and greet:
Panel room 1 on Sunday May 30th at 10pm.
Come and visit! Say hey!
We will also be debuting our new T-shirt designs at Fanime!
Here’s one of them…

So the public has spoken, and between the people who voted on my DA account and those who emailed me their votes, we have determined a winner!
So over the next couple weeks, we should see a couple guest appearances (the people who won at the cons, and the grand prize winner) in the comic. Thanks to everyone who submitted, the whole thing was a great deal of fun and we’ll do it again NEXT year!

ZOMG HAPPY ANNIVERSARY HHFM!
Oh, and happy Wondercon too. /rolls eyes
There’s lots of news, but we’ll start with the IMPORTANT stuff first… You know, the Caption Contest!
This year, I’m giving away the new I [heart] Seamonsters tshirt in the winner’s size, plus the five buttons, and a guest appearance in a future HHFM comic!
Why so generous with the prizes, you ask? Because I’m opening it to Wondercon goers as well.
So, without further, ado, here is the captionless comic!
Get those entries in ASAP! Contest ends on Friday, April 9th, and I’ll post the winner’s comic and a number of runner-ups the following Monday.
In other news, I know that last year I promised a few things that I didn’t exactly follow through on. This year, I can tell you we’re upgrading to that Web 2.0… you know that whole bit where you, the reader, and I, the cartoonist, interact more directly? Yeah. Totally happening.
I can tell you that’s a certainty, because we’re almost ready to deploy it.
That means more cool things for you to poke at, more background, more archives, the ability to comment on a comic, and much, much more.
This r srs bizness, yo.
I’ll have a con report for you sometime after Wondercon. In the mean time, if you can, drop by the Lost Graphics/Katgirl Studio table AA41
We’re right here:

It’s Filler Week!
A fan commented recently that they just finished reading the entire archive and told me, “it’s really interesting to see how the art progresses!” So I thought it would be neat to put it all in one place, to show how the art actually has progressed. I even updated the comic into the current style.
Comics return Monday – with an actual buffer now and much better prepared for Wondercon! GLEE!

It’s Filler Week!
Something I drew as a piece of background for Rossi, thought I’d put it together and show it to you. Just a bit of something to think about.

It’s Filler Week!
Some of you may remember the photo I posted around when all this started, a little bit of fun to show you my workspace. Since then, there have been a few changes made to the comic and to my workspace, and I thought it might be fun to compare the two, so here it is, in all its glory 
Come back Wednesday for another bit of interesting filler.

First day of filler… I’m working hard to catch up and get my buffer up and running, also with Wondercon right around the corner, we’re getting all kinds of things ready for that event. I’ve got filler planned out for the regular update schedule all next week, so be sure to check in, and you’ll get a number of glimpses, hints and other coolness.
Have a great weekend!

(Sorry for the late update, folks! I missed it because I was a dork and didn’t send the files to Webmonkey Ben. Click back one to see yesterday’s comic)
And that’s the end of this Christmas special! I really hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed making it.
This storyline seemed much cleaner, much tighter, more focused than the storyline from this summer. I’d have to say that it’s because this summer, I had a general idea and went with it (much like the first Christmas special), while this year, I wrote the plot down and stuck to it.
Really goes to show what putting a little work into the story can actually do.
Here are a couple of scans of some thumbs I did… this was after I had written out the overall plot. I did most of the scripting at this stage.
So the regular comic schedule resumes Monday, and I’ll be restarting the PDQs around the same time (probably Tuesdays… I hadn’t fully decided when I wrote this post.) That said, I’m off to drive myself nuts for another year, working hard on too many projects and just not finishing enough of them, as always
See you Monday!
