Comics.

So it's been a while. Over a month actually. I kept meaning to update this blog, but I keep forgetting. I thought at first "Eh, who cares" but I guess the people who follow this blog, or have it bookmarked do, so anyway, many of you must be wondering "Where is the comic? When will it be back up?" First of all, question 1. Where is the comic; the comic has moved to a Tumblr page, since it seems a lot nicer, plus with more people starting Tumblrs it could get more followers, which is always nice.

Question 2. When will the comics be back?
That's a tough one. My original plan was for them to be back on July 1, giving me all of next month to work on them, but that has now changed. Why? Because I had major surgery, YAY! A while back many might remember I was sick; this was caused by a flare up of my Ulcerative Colitis. I found out I had UC in 2008, and it seemed to settle down for a while, but then it just came roaring back. Once I was sick again I was admitted back into hospital, which was the reason the comics originally went on hiatus. After I got out of hospital I had to go back to the hospital every few weeks for Infliximab infusions. Everything seemed to be going fine. That is until Tuesday the 4th of May (May the 4th be with me indeed). I went in to my specialist for an out patient visit, something I did every 2-3 weeks. He took a blood test and said that my blood indicated that the flare wasn't getting better (even tho at this point I felt fine). Next thing I know I am admitted to hospital and waiting for surgery. It was quite a quick (and weird) thing to happen so quickly, which I guess was good since my brain didn't have time to process what was happening.
Then that Friday the 7th I went under the knife for an Ileostomy. I don't remember much. Just breathing into an oxygen tube, then being knocked out. Next thing I know I wake up in immense pain, then I wake up again in my hospital room.
Now, if I was just having a permanent Ileostomy (which thank GOD I am not) I would probably keep to my July 1 restart, but luckily I am getting an Ileo-Anal pouch around August (hopefully sooner if I'm lucky). If all goes according to plan, once I get over recovering from that operation, I should have the comic relaunched something in September. It's weird that it will be almost a year. Time is going so fast...well not fast enough right now. I just want this thing gone.

So again, I am sorry for the lack of comics. I can't wait to get back to doing what I love (drawing). Hopefully when I come back the comic will be bigger and better, and so will I.
