Super-Quick Blog Update

1. If someone ever says to you, "Print is dead", smack them.
Saturday's Courier-Journal article has brought in more new visitors and all-time page views than all of my previous online efforts (ad banners, forum posts, etc.) combined. Various online comic blogs from all around have picked up on the online version of the article and have linked here from it. I may never purchase online banner space again. Which leads me to tell you that...

2. I am up to my nose in unanswered email.
Orders for the print comic are the number one priority, so please pardon me if you are an old acquaintence/friend or new fan who spotted said article and wrote to me. I am also currently on a hard deadline for a big graphic design project, so it may take me a while to get back to you. Especially because...

3. I will be at Heroes Con this weekend.
Look for me on the floor (I will NOT have a table) with plenty of copies of Suburban Tribe #1 for sale on Sunday. God help me, I will likely be wearing a Suburban Tribe t-shirt. More details later.

Finally, thanks to Tauhid and Mike, creators of Spells and Whistles for linking to me from their home page on Monday. Judging from the amount of hits I got from them, it may be time for the C-J to give them a call!

Hey John, when you're at Heroes on Saturday, look for a bald, slightly chubby white guy...

...better yet, I'll look for you. $5 for an issue, right?

There's something I find really appealing about the name "Mr Nibbles", I'm not sure what it is. John, perchance have you arranged in your mind some passing of the torch, from Mr. Nibbles to Caesar ? . . . . I really like saying "Mr Nibbles" aloud. Go ahead, all of you, try it ! It has a real ZING to it !

Actually, it comes from a SNL 'Weekend Update' segment when Richard Gere 'married his longtime love.' It then showed a gerbil in a veil - named 'Mister Nibbles.'

Now you know!

Actually, we really appreciate it. Everyone we talked to kept telling us that Charlotte was a big armpit. Now we might have something cool to do there besides the Con.

No chance to see Supes until Monday or Tuesday. You can read my LIKE/hate Superman post then.
