I had always hoped the future would be exactly like this.
We can still make this dream a reality.
On the subject of Lazers and tagging, was I the only one that watched this show?

Shirt Order Update
If you have placed an order since April 1st, I will be ordering your shirt from the printer tomorrow and shipping out as soon as they arrive. I hope to be placing shirt orders every two weeks from here on out and weekly as soon as the store really picks up.
Thank you for your patience as I am using a new supplier and am getting adjusted to the new process. I really appreciate your support.
That also means if you are planning to order a shirt and would like to receive it with the first batch, you should probably order it before Thursday (the 17th) afternoon.
I would also like to get your feedback on the items I am working on adding to the store. Let me know which items hold the most interest for you.
- More shirts – I hope to get a new design up every week or two.
- Prints of comics – These would be full color prints, suitable for framing, about 8.5×11″ size. They would also be signed.
- Stickers – haven’t found a printer yet for these but I have some designs in mind. Do you know of a good sticker printer? Do you have a sticker you would like to see? Sharksplode?
- E-Book – with behind the scenes info on the making of the first 100 comics (I’m not to 100 quite yet). It will have sketches, outlines, script notes and an mp3 with audio commentary.
- Real Books – here’s a dilemma. I would love to print an HE book in full color (preferably the first 2 years of comics) when the time comes, but that is a ways off. I can’t do full color with a print on demand site like Lulu.com because they would charge ME $25-35 per book depending on page numbers. I wouldn’t want to charge more than $20 for the book to YOU guys. That means I can either have NO books for a very long time, or do a black and white book (very affordable through Lulu) with the first 100 comics. If you bought that, it would be with the knowledge that a full color version would be on the way 8-10 months later. Would HE make any sense in B&W. Don’t know how I feel about that.
UDPATE:
I might not be able to place the order until tonight or tomorrow (Friday the 18th) morning, so if you want to get yours in, go ahead.
Reader Art and Weekly Linksplode!
Keegan Mykris of the comic Guinea-Tech.com sent me this fraktastic rendition of “Godspeed, You Fancy Bastard.”
(click to embiggen)
That’s fucking awesome (if not a little bittersweet since I couldn’t do something that simple and elegant if I had a gun to my head).
Onto Linksplosion!
- Iron Man trailer to be made into a feature length movie
- The Spider-Man 2 that wasn’t
- Clone Wars CGI trailer does NOT give me any sort of boner
- Blockbuster to buy Circuit City increasing my ability to ignore them both by 50%
- Austin Powers 4 “Jumping Her Majesty’s Secret Shark”
- Ron Moore has a new SciFi show in the pipetubes?
- Magic Pen = Crayon Physics Clon = fun times
- “Steam Wars” action figures
- Bill ORLY Goatse on live TV
PLEASE READ!!! Email Problems
Turns out most of my email accounts have been non-functioning since April 7th. That means if you have emailed comics@, podcast@, used the contact form or placed an order in the store I did not receive the email.
For orders I just checked the Paypal logs, so don’t worry about those.
For all other contact since April 7th, I am not ignoring you. Please resend your emails or anything you sent via the contact form.
Thanks,
Joel
Godspeed, You Fancy Bastard shirt is IN THE STORE!!!
Special thanks to the Fancy Bastards that helped design this one. I think it turned out fantastic and that’s mostly due to your suggestions and feedback during the design process.
Head over to the store and pick one up.
