Re: When you are bored...
Well, I didn't make a comic last week because I was (and still am) installing Gentoo Linux on my computer. Since it's my first time doing it and that I decided to manually configure my kernel for optimal performance, it took the whole week to make the base working (like theconsole, framebuffer (with 1024x768 splash screen :cool:), sound, X, alsa and other stuff). Now that everything is set up and working, I'll have GNOME (and no, I'm not looking -back- at KDE. Don't bug me with it until KDE4 is out) installed. So as soon as Inkscape and my comics are back on the hard drive, I'll have another one up!

Dekker...You beat my old record for fastest post after a comic release.  111 seconds.  Impressive...Most impressive...

I know it takes longer for me to make comics, but I don't have the same amount of time I had before to think about it. I could do one right now, but let my brain slow down a bit eh!

Hmm...He's got a plan then.  This is gonna be good.  :D

After the season finale, are you going to take a break from writing comics, or are you going to jump right into season two?

Re: When you are bored...
#42! Season 1 finale!


Well, this is it. Season one is over. What now? First of all, time for the thanks. Thank you (yes, you!) for watching the comic, thank you for the ones who starred in the comic, you were fantastic! And sorry if I mistreated you! :P Thank you Flipside for pinning the topic and thank you HLP for "hosting" my little comic! You all make me want to continue this comic! If I forget somebody, thank you!  :)

I'd like to especially thank my friends and my parents who helped me hold on in the past couple of months, who were a bit rough, to say the least. Thank you!

And here's the "What now?". Is it the end of RoadSign? No, it is not. It could have been though, I must admit.  Season 2 will not resume immediately. I will first take a break then I will do some work on the designs. Since the comic, at first, wasn't intended to continue after the first couple of ones (heck, I wasn't even planning on doing more than one lol!), I didn't "strategically" place the path intersections when drawing the characters, making it very difficult for me to modify their poses. I will re-draw them with more efficiency and maybe add a couple of tweaks here and there to the comic. But hey, I won't say everything! Also, the comic will not have the same release schedule. One a week was fine for me at first, but it didn't get long that my brain was unable to produce the juice I needed to last long. I don't have a precise schedule in mind, it may be one a week or twice a month, I don't know yet.

And now for the cherry on the sundae: the following zip file contains the entire first season, encapsulated in a small and convenient viewer, so you can watch them without leaving the page! It also contains a wallpaper (in various resolutions) to decorate your desktop. And don't worry, I'll put the package on the archive, so don't stress about limited quantities  :P! Click here!

Well, that's it folks!

Last thing, what were your favorite moments in the comic? :)
