Coming soon!

New strips, new look, probably the same jokes. Sorry.

One of us, dammit

Monday, January 5th, 2009

We’re back! And, much like the economy, we’ve downsized.

While we had a great deal of fun whomping up the larger strips — Adam had a lot more room to play and still fit in all the words I insisted had to be there, somewhere, in some sort of order — they were also incredibly time-consuming to create at the level of quality we both wanted. And other, paying projects crept in, and there was those non-paying family members who kept hanging around… we had to step back and rethink the strip. We both wanted to continue, no question about that, but it would have to change for that to happen.

Hence, the smaller, non-color strip. But, good news: the format change saves us enough time so that we can start publishing three times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) instead of two, which is something we wanted to do from the beginning.

If you’re just joining us – and hey! Hi! — you can catch up with the older strips here, or you can download them as a cbr file (Use CDisplay or these other cbr programs to read it). And we look forward to obsessing with you for years to come!

(Seriously, how old is the new Doctor, like, twelve? Who’s going to be his Companion, Winnie the Pooh? But I digress.)

The sound of one eye opening

Hi everyone, and thanks for the kind welcome back! As Chris said on Monday, we’re really excited to be coming back to these characters, and can’t wait to bring you more Save Hiatus. Personally, I’ve missed drawing these guys a lot. Hopefully this new, slimmed down format will help me with the time it takes to do the strip, which was a big part of why Hiatus had to go on, well, hiatus before.

So, anyway, enjoy and if you like what you see, please tell a friend! If you don’t, well, now is the time for quiet, silent contemplation.

Condition, repeat

No, I didn’t forget to upload the comic last night. I don’t know what you’re talking about. *shifty eyes*

Giving them what they want

Woo! I didn’t forget to post it this time!

I’m working hard right now to get ahead on the strips, because I’m going to the inauguration next  week (WOOHOO!) and I’ll be gone for five days. I’m almost to the point where I’m far enough ahead that we won’t have any gaps in the posting schedule. I’ll do my best to make sure that doesn’t happen.

bio_chrisGood morning, Hiaters!

This is the only way to watch a TV series: on DVD, one after another, without budging, until you become one with the couch and suck up all the available nutrients for a city block and become capable of straining sustenance from the air through your facial hair.

I assume ladies have a different method.

Adam has begun his Inaugvacation and will be away for awhile, so you’ll have to watch the rest of Hiatus with me.

Fortunately I managed to lash him to a sturdy post and staple his pen to his hand before he got away so SaveHiatus will continue unabated in the meantime.

Love conquers nearly all

bio_chrisYou know, the effort of Adam doing all the strips early so we don’t miss any is somewhat lessened when I forget to post the silly thing…

Um, I mean, here’s the new strip! Yay! Woo! Yay!

Yes We’re Gonna

bio_chrisA rare Tuesday strip, but for a good cause.

If you look closely, you can see Adam in front of the Capitol building. He’s right over… not there, over by the… right, right over… yeah, by the… see that guy with the… yes! That’s him! If you follow his Twitter feed you can get occasional glimpses of what’s going on.

Back to our regular schedule tomorrow.
