Latest Comic:

28th July, 2011: "Best Clean Your Ears Out, Ensign"


In other news we've posted a final update on the progress of the CDs. The discs have now been ordered (which also means that the pre-order offer is over and the price has gone up to a still-ridiculously-cheap £5 including worldwide delivers), and the sleeves have already been printed and delivered:

And the CDs have finally been printed, burned, packed and posted. If you ordered one it should be arriving with you shortly. If you didn't, it's not too late - only £5 for 57 comics, with source files, and a load of extras.

Glad you like it. If you haven't already done so, you might like to download the SVG file for the Easter Egg, which adds a little something else to the story...

Thanks. If you want to catch up on previous strips you can:

* Trawl through them here
* Trawl through them on our website - complete with commentary and source file downloads
* Buy one of our ridiculously cheap CDs (only £5) which contains all the comics for the first two seasons, plus commentaries, source files, Italian translations, additional audio commentaries, "build-up" videos, an interactive HTML5 interview with myself and the co-creator and a few hidden goodies. Then you can trawl through that, at your leisure (though you'll still need to then trawl here or the website for the strips from Season 3 so far).

Guess which option I favour ;)

It's worth noting that there's more to the comics than meets the eye. Each of them has one or more Easter Eggs - usually found by opening the source file in Inkscape and digging around a little, though some are hidden in other ways. It adds a great extra dimension if you're the puzzle solving type.

Hmm, seems "The Greys" watch anime... :) Great strip, by the way, though I'm a bit biased towards anything with mecha in! :lol:

You might be especially interested in the commentary that accompanies "Mecha" on our website...

10th November, 2011: Mooniversal Translator


In other news, we now have a second comic, "Monsters, Inked", which appears weekly in our local newspaper, The Bucks Herald. Currently there's very little on the website as we're planning to post the strips there a few weeks after their appearance in the newspaper, and we've only just had the second comic printed. I don't propose to post the strips on this site, as it's primarily a print comic for a local newspaper rather than a webcomic - but I'll probably link to the latest strips on the website with each Greys announcement in case you do want to view them.
