Terminal Heavens Rock

I can not overemphasize what an extremely bizarre experience it is to draw two Fuzzys interacting with one another.

Much to discuss today! First of all, John A has put out a completely original Scary Go Round book starring sexy superspy Fallon. I haven't seen it yet, but I have heard good things. It's pretty inexpensive, too, so you really have no excuse NOT to buy it.

Conversely, you have a fine excuse not to buy the brand new Pillows single -- it costs 16 bucks to import it, and it only has three tracks! Fortunately, (or unfortunately, depending on your point of view,) the songs that are on it are fabulous. The fine folks at this Pillows fansite can hook you up with some lowish-bitrate mp3s of the songs if you need to hear 'em first to decide if they're worth the investment, but either way, you're probably better off waiting for the full album.

A couple of months ago, I was contacted by a reader who wanted to send me two issues of a writing magazine that she worked on. The magazine is called NFG, and it features a (very!) wide variety of writing goodies, including short stories, articles, poetry, and yes, even some comics. This is a glossy, professional looking magazine, and the editors accept submissions from basically anyone through their website. It's a great opportunity for any young writer who is trying to find a place to get their work published.

Finally, there is a new piece of fan art in the gallery! Go lookit!

Rock is sponge

For those just tuning in -- yes, I am back from having my appendix removed and yes, I uploaded the comic that should have run on Friday when I got home from the hospital on Saturday. And now, here's today's comic, right on schedule. As a result of all this activity, I've had to mess around with some image filenames a bit. If you are still seeing Friday's comic instead of today's, hit refresh and your problems will all be solved!

Amazingly, while sitting in the emergency room on Thursday night, the thing that bothered me the most was that I wasn't going to be able to update the site. Isn't that sick? I guess it goes to show you how much I enjoy running this site.

If you're not familiar with the sombrero-wearing Future Fuzzy in today's comic, you might want to have a look at these strips. It won't hurt, I promise.

That's all for now. I'll have lots to talk about on Wednesday, when I imagine I'll be feeling more like my old self. Cheers, all.

Ow!

Yes, I have returned! If you visited the site yesterday, you'd know that on Thursday night, I was whisked away to the hospital to have my appendix removed (well, after waiting seven hours in the emergency room.) I was released back into the wild this afternoon, and I'm still pretty gross-feeling, but I did manage to prep and upload the comic that should have run yesterday.

Thanks to Ashton and Claire, who did a fine job of keeping everyone up to speed on what was going on. I've archived everything they put on the front page here for posterity. I'd leave it in the regular archives but it messes with my comic numbering!

Thanks to everyone who sent in "Get well soon" emails (and there were a LOT of you!) Also thanks to everyone who has continued to vote for Sam and Fuzzy at Top Web Comics, where we have finally cracked into the top ten! It's nice to know that you guys still voted even though I wasn't able to post a comic on time. You're the best!

I'm going to go get some sleep now. Back to business as usual on Monday.
