What now?

  As most of you know, it was my goal to complete a syndicate submission and then decide what to do next with Avalon Alight. I've decided not to continue on with it while waiting to hear if the syndicates have any interest, as the reader response has been pretty poor, and I do this as much for you as I do for myself. If the work doesn't inspire you then it's usually not worth it to me either.

Anyway, that's the bad news. The good news is I'll be returning to Suzie View for the time being, if only to keep pushing myself as a cartoonist in the hopes of further "improving my craft," as the pretentious expression goes... :) See ya there!

Later,
Erik

  Never saw "Failure to Launch," so I hope I was able to capture the premise reasonably accurately. Well, there's just one more strip to go until the syndicate submission is complete! Hope you have enjoyed the ride. Now that it's time to hand off these strips to the syndicates, I haven't yet decided whether or not to continue posting new ones. I'll let you know, one way or the other.

Later,
Erik

  Three strips left, people! This one is an example of a recurring theme that I would use, having Jake in the ticket booth in the first couple of panels and then following with a screenshot from a movie. I think I'd enjoying storyboarding like that. I guess you could say I'm a filmmaker myself, now! This must be what it feels like to be Spielberg... Erik the Hackberg...

If you are one of those people in search of an epic quest that pits fantasy's mightest heroes against that greatest of evils that shall not be named... er, look elsewhere. But, if you like to laugh at those people, this is the place to be!
