In other news, we have received our first French translation of a Greys strip: Bottes de Yeti

And there are now five comics from our local newspaper strip, "Monsters, Inked", available online. Whereas The Greys is entirely drawn in Inkscape, Monsters, Inked is hand drawn, then traced, coloured and lettered in Inkscape - which leads to a markedly different aesthetic:



There is a vague notion of a plot, so if you want to see the five that are online so far, you might want to start at the beginning.

Our latest Greys comic was posted on Thursday as usual, but I've been holding off promoting it until now as we were running low on bandwidth last month. A couple of our strips ranked fairly highly on reddit.com which caused significant traffic spikes, and despite increasing our hosting package, we still managed to run out of bandwidth and drop off the internet for a few hours yesterday. Enough excuses, on with the comics...

Latest comic (the penultimate one of Season 3):

12th April 2012, "Whatever Happened to Printed Manuals?"


In other, not-so-good news, a change of editor at our local newspaper has meant that our 'Monsters, Inked' comic has been dropped
We've decided to carry on with it on our website - not least because it's actually telling a story, rather than being just individual jokes. We're hoping to continue with weekly strips, posted each Wednesday (but without a print deadline to meet anymore, we're not offering any guarantees).

Latest strip - the last comic of Season 3:

26th April, 2012 - "Rebel Roll Call"
