IT'S OVER!!!




Note: The current story-arc begins at Strip 621

August 25, 2008:

Well, there you have it. Strip 666, and the end of Casey and Andy.

I am so greatful to all of you for reading my comic. I can not express what all your emails, words of encouragement, and readership has meant to me.

I never imagined, when I started this all those years ago, that I would ever have so many people listening to my ramblings in any form. So to all of you, thank you so very much.

I suppose what most of you will want to know is "What happens next?" The truth is I don't know. I may begin work on Cheshire Crossing issue 5. But I also have another completely new concept for a comic in mind that I might want to take a crack at. Whatever I work on, I'll announce it on my forums and on the Cheshire Crossing mailing list. In any event, I won't be doing anything for a month or two.

Some folks have requested the art originals, so they can make fanstrips or just generally mess around with stuff. So I zipped up all the Adobe Illustrator files I have. I started using Illustrator on strip 564, so that's just over 100 strips of art. Should be enough for whatever you're up to. The ai files are presented "as is". They're very disorganized in the early strips, becoming more reasonable around the time the finale arc begins. Enjoy:

I guess that's it. Wow. I can't believe it's actually over. Once again, thank you all. :)

I'm sorry that it's gone, but certainly enjoyed it and am glad you were able to bring it to a clean ending.

Lovely. Every panel is a delight, and the final panel just made me grin for minutes.

So... will further comic announcements be made here? I know it's "c_and_a", but it would be nice to have a central LJ spot for notifications, maybe some artwork, that sort of thing. Also, I'd hate to see this journal end.

I'm looking forward to whatever Andy Weir comes up with. (But he should probably resist the temptation to produce "Andy and Bob".)

And last but not least, thank you very much for this. We're all better people for it. No, really.

I still plan to post project updates and releases here, whichever project Andy decides to pursue next.

The Queen Victoria panel sent me into gigglefits.
