Duh. I keep forgetting how sparse the posts are in some threads. I didn't check the date.MerchManDan wrote:Yes, but scantrontb asked that in January - almost two months before Wreck-it Ralphs DVD release.

AHA!, That means you're not a "REA..." um... didn't we just say this?Fairportfan wrote:I don't check a lot of sub-fora on anything like a regular basis.
... um, yeah... uh, well anyway... this comic, Girl Genius, Grrl Power, and Freefall are the four that I absolutely check every day (well not GG as it's only 3 a week,) I have a bunch that I periodically check once or twice a month, and a huge number of bookmarked ones that I really ought to catch up on. this and Grrl Power are the only two I post on very often, so i kind of know what you mean about not following any forums on a regular basis.I check the "sub-fora" every time I login to this forum...mostly because I feel like it's easier to stay on top of a page or two of posts at a time instead of having to do a massive stint of reading to get caught up on everything everyone had to say about whatever.Fairportfan wrote:I meant i don't check the sub-fora on this board.
I have a LONG list of comics i check regularly.
I've found that if you do that, and you're only checking the forum once a day (and only on weekdays), you only have to read a few posts in 3 threads, a larger amount of posts in 2-4 threads (depending on if I've missed comic updates or it's Monday), and the entirety of one or two new threads that are already more than a page long. It used to take longer when the Main Pub was more active. Most of the sub-forums have gone dormant. Really you're only looking at reading a handful of posts here in the Fan Art section, the Main Pub, maybe in the Introductory area, and then whatever people are still posting in the Comic Discussion section. Unless I've got a lot to say or I've been away for a while, it doesn't take much more than 10 minutes to follow all of the sub-sections here.What, no Zebra Girl? *boggles*Fairportfan wrote:I have a LONG list of comics i check regularly.

... those are the main ones.
and no Skin Horse or Girl Genius? (page 1, HERE) It is a sad, sad day when you realise you're reading a Phil Foglio comic for the storylines, not the artworkLeak wrote:What, no Zebra Girl? *boggles*Fairportfan wrote:I have a LONG list of comics i check regularly.

(ps: if the front and back don't touch, is it technically still a dress?)
. Last time I counted my "webcomics" bookmarks folder I'm pretty sure the number was well over 150 - fortunately some of them aren't active/abandoned so I can get through those pretty quickly.Leak wrote:Fairportfan wrote:I have a LONG list of comics i check regularly.
I'm rambling after the first coffee of the morning again, aren't I? 
They have two novelisations of Girl Genius thus far, and it goes a bit more in depth than the comic. They were having issues with Nightshade Press, so not sure if they are using them for third or going with someone else...I hope they ask Baen(who does a distribution of Nightshades books)if they don't. Just my 2cp. Even though I enjoy Girl Genius in full colour, there's something to be said about a nice crisp wordy volume. I am debating on whether or not to get Kindle versions of the graphic novels or wait and get hard bound. anyway it gets looked at you just can't do it wrong.Grantwhy wrote: It is a sad, sad day when you realise you're reading a Phil Foglio comic for the storylines, not the artwork
that would be Myth Adventures, yes?DinkyInky wrote:If it weren't for the fact that he's got his hands full with GG, I'd love to see his treatments of Bujold's deranged hyperactive midget Miles Vorkosigan, or Weber and Ringo's Empire of Man series(if you haven't read them, shame on you, get! Go read them!). I mean just look at the treatment he did for Robert Asprin's Myth Adventures...so funny!
[one of the finished webcomics that stick around in my webcomics bookmarks ]Phil didn't do the full original dead tree run of Myth Adventures; depending on what you've heard, he quit, or he got fired because Asprin was annoyed that Phil was writing original stuff (some versions add "that was funnier than his own".)Grantwhy wrote:that would be Myth Adventures, yes?DinkyInky wrote:If it weren't for the fact that he's got his hands full with GG, I'd love to see his treatments of Bujold's deranged hyperactive midget Miles Vorkosigan, or Weber and Ringo's Empire of Man series(if you haven't read them, shame on you, get!

Doubtful, considering he did the First Edition Covers for most of the series, but the only way to find out is to talk to the Prof., so it will most likely be a while before I myself will have that curiousity satisfied.Fairportfan wrote:Phil didn't do the full original dead tree run of Myth Adventures; depending on what you've heard, he quit, or he got fired because Asprin was annoyed that Phil was writing original stuff (some versions add "that was funnier than his own".)Grantwhy wrote:that would be Myth Adventures, yes?DinkyInky wrote:If it weren't for the fact that he's got his hands full with GG, I'd love to see his treatments of Bujold's deranged hyperactive midget Miles Vorkosigan, or Weber and Ringo's Empire of Man series(if you haven't read them, shame on you, get!

Different deal, in which Asprin had much less say - Phil replaced Kelly Freas as contract cover artist for Starblaze Books.DinkyInky wrote:Doubtful, considering he did the First Edition Covers for most of the series, but the only way to find out is to talk to the Prof., so it will most likely be a while before I myself will have that curiousity satisfied.
So, no portable coffee grinders allowed out on the range? All the herders are tea-totallers?Fairportfan wrote:In the second volume, they wind up owning The Bar-None Ranch (coincidentally, thevolume title) ... which is a tarantula ranch.
Which employs seriously badass tarantula herders.
Tarantulas, it turns out, are very skittish and prone to stampedes at the least little fright.
