Ok.......so
it's been 1 and a 1/2 months since the last update. What can I say other
than school and work have prevented me from updating. I'm only updating
today because it's my birthday. Today we have 2 or 3 new Random Events up. I
haven't worked on the next regular episode, so you will have to wait until
the next update, whenever that is. Enjoy.

Wow! We have
plenty of updates this time. We have a new episode of Sapphire Comics, a new
Random Event, and a new Xanatos Shorts. I know I said I would have the new
episode up on Wednesday in the forums, but I haven't had a stable connection
until today. I hope you enjoy this massive update, but don't expect this
type very often. Also be prepared for more new characters to appear over the
course of the next 5 or 6 episodes. The new items are now in bold.

Well, my PC is going into the shop. Something happened to it and it doesn't
work anymore. I have had to push episode 013 back to become 014. 013 is now
a special announcement comic episode of what has happened. Hopefully I get
my machine back with everything the way it was, except for the broken part.
Until then, the regular episodes are on hold, as all but my author sprites
are on it. So enjoy this one-time deal of an explanation comic. |

We have
more issues of Xanatos Shorts from Belial. The debut of Madden is still
under construction. I'm still redesigning Sapphire for his minimal armor
mode. I'm also designing a new armor for Sapphire. I might even make another
evil counterpart for Phobos called Deimos, but that is still being decided.
I'll update again when I have time.

Random
Event #11 is up. I've opted to change from the .gif format to the .png
format. The .gif images were distorting the colors of the comics. The
contest from episode 010 is now closed. I will let you know the results of
the contest. KATANA will be unveiled in the next episode of Sapphire Comics
with his new name. I will also update the cast page at that point in time.
Until then, enjoy the new Random Event.

2:00 AM
Today we
have a special animated episode of Sapphire Comics, again. It's Easter! This
one is shorter than most. I didn't have as much time to make it as I would
have liked. Please excuse any typos. As you can see, it's 2:00 AM when I
updated this and assembled the comic. School has caught up and passed me.
Now I'm swamped in projects. Enjoy the short Easter 2004 special. Contest
for naming KATANA ends next update. The winner will be chosen when 014 hits
the site. Check the forum for more details.

Today we
have a special animated episode of Sapphire Comics. Check out #011. You
might get another animation on Easter, but I haven't decided if I will make
one for then or not, since it's only about a week away from this Sunday.
Thanks to Belial for part of this animation. So far, very few entries for
the contest have been received, only one that isn't the project name in
acronym form, to be exact. Looks like I will do two animations in a row.
this one, and then one for Easter, starring Tails and Cream. You have until
episode 13 for your name entries. Either send them to me in e-mail or post
them in the forum. I will contact the winner about their appearance in the
comic.

Random
events 10 and episode 10 of Sapphire Comics are up for your viewing
pleasure. Episode 10 has a contest embedded in it. Please participate in it.
I really can't think of a name for that guy. Special thanks go out to Belial
of Final Funtasy for the use of his Belial Hedgehog character. Cast section
will be updated soon. A fancomic is also coming soon. I have one that is
under review right now. Expect it to be up by Wednesday (hopefully).
Update: The
submitted comic has been approved. the 5 issues that have been submitted are
now up for viewing. Another comic was submitted by a different author, but I
felt it was not good enough for this site.

Random
events are done sooner than I originally expected. There are four new Random
Events comics. Issue #010 is still on the drawing board. I still haven't
worked out the script for it. Soon I will add a cast section for Random
Events. Some Characters will not have actual names. I will refer to them
based off of their major characteristic, like Mr. 3 and Duck Hunt Man. Check
the forums for new polls and other such goodies. Check back next week for
#010 of Sapphire Comics. I should have it done by then. It will introduce
new characters to the comic. Some of them have made appearances in Random
Events. Stay tuned to see who these new characters are.

The fillers
have been renamed to Random Events since they have the feel of a mini-comic.
I might add a cast page for Random Events, but that is still a ways off from
actual production. Sapphire Comics issue #009 is up today. I'm still waiting
for a response from Bob and George as to weather or not my comic is worthy
of the name of Fan link or not. I'm thinking of having non-custom characters
appear in the comic, such as Megaman, Protoman, Roll, Dr. Light, Bass, etc.
All of these custom-only comics take a while to actually pull off. Sometimes
I have to make the character half-way through making the rest of the comic.

Filler 5 is
ready today.
Update:
#008, the first animated issue of Sapphire Comics is up. I might do more
animated ones, but only on certain occasions. This one is just a test.
Expect one around oh say Easter. On a side note, filler 5 is a satire of
someone that I know from real life. Certain readers might know who I am
portraying in it. This marks the second time that I've done a double update
on the same day.

The comic
is progressing faster than expected. Issue #007 is ready for viewing today.
As stated yesterday, the forums are open for business. There is a poll going
on to decide if you like the effects seen in #006 or not. I also added a
cast section so you know who is who in the comic.

Wow, two updates
almost back to back and in the same week! This is a larger than average
update. I have issues # 005 and 006. # 006 has some added special effects in
it. If I get a good response for these effects, I might add more in future
issues. # 007 is still in the works. You know, that makes 3 issues up in the
past 2 days. I might have even more done in the next 3 weeks. I'm on Spring
Break! Woo hoo! Expect more sections to be added eventually. I'm still
debating about the forum idea. Hopefully I get some fan comics for the fan
comics section soon.
Update: The
forums have been added. This will give me another way to get input from you,
the readers.

Thursday, February 26, 2004 Issue #4 is up. Also a new section has been
added. The link is below this news update. You can read all of the previous
news blurbs, starting with Feb. 22. This way you can see what has changed
since the last time. I am thinking about adding a forum to the site. E-mail
me and let me know what you think about the idea. I am always accepting requests for fan comics and ideas for future comics. As always, use the contact info for all submissions.

Issue #3 and filler #4 are up. It makes more sense to read filler 4 before
issue 3. Filler 4 introduces the new lab. Enjoy. Issue #4 is in the works
currently. I am always accepting requests for fan comics and ideas for
future comics. As always, use the contact info for all submissions.
