I'm still very busy with my "HardBodies" (www.HardBaseOne.com) mega-science-fiction project this week, and I'm about to head out to Reno, NV for a little R&R, so once again I'll be short.

There, is that short enough for you?

I should be back next week in time for your regular Minion distraction of the week.  See you then!

Yes, this week's cartoon is kinda silly.  Silly always makes me nervous, because you never know if silly will be the funniest cartoon ever, or land with a thud, or just unintentionally piss people off.  But sometimes you've got to chance it.

Busy week this week, with with getting our HardBodies shared-world military science-fiction project going.  But our teams are lined up, ideas are beginning to perk for the next three novels in the series.  I think this thing is just going to be more fun than anyone can stand.  We're going to have giant fighting robots, fast-moving vehicles, aliens, dinosaurs, submarines, sea-monsters, action, suspense, mystery, romance, intrigue, thrills and laughs.  Our goal is to make this series like Christmas morning for our fellow nerds, and I think we're on course to do just that!

The first ebooks won't start showing up until next year, but you can still bookmark our website and follow along as things develop.

See you guys next week.

Greetings, Short-sells!


Hey, I just got a new Droid X phone, which in no way has anything to do with why this week's cartoon is going out a few hours late.  Okay, it does, but it's only one of a long list of distractions around here, which I won't bore you with.


And yes, if you're wondering, one of them (well down the list, I'll admit) is getting ComicPress figured out and configured so we can more the site to something more sophisticated and easy to navigate.  It's going slow, but it's going.  I'd rather get it done right than get it done soon, so be patient.


Does today's cartoon seem a bit out of season to you?  Well, I wondered about that, but it's clearly about Santa Claus in a bar BEFORE Christmas, so it could easily be several months before.  I've always wondered what Santa does in the off season, given that he's basically a super-villain anyway.  I mean, he has a hidden arctic lair, hoards of obedient minions who toil endlessly for him, super-powers, maintains surveillance of millions of people (well, kids) and as I've said before, he annually practices home-invasion on an epic and international scale.


Franky, I'm in awe of the guy.  What do you say?  Should we see more of Santa's evil?


See you guys next week!
