Good Monday News! I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but it looks like a member of Blank Label Comics has been nominated for an Eisner Award! That's right, Brad Guigar's feature "Phables" has been nominated for the cartooning industry's highest honor, and we couldn't be happier for him. Brad's been nominated for "Best Digital Comic", so make sure to get the word out. This is one small step in Brad, and one giant leap for webcomicskind. Heck, it's a giant leap for Brad, too. Giant leaps all around, I'm feeling generous!

Regarding the strip, which I haven't talked about in a while, I just wanted to let you guys know that we're just about ready to wrap up this storyline we've been following for the past few months. I tried to break it up into manageable 2-3 week chunks, so I hope it wasn't too arduous for you guys. I remember back at the end of last December I said that I had the next six months or so of Ugly Hill planned out, and it looks like I was right on the money for once. "The Price of Success" saga should wrap up around the end of May, beginning of June if everything goes as planned. Then it's back to business as usual... or is it? You never know! Somebody could die! I haven't killed a major character in a long time, and the second anniversary of the strip is coming up on May 23rd. Maybe it's time to shake things up again?

Maybe I'll pull a "Serenity". SPLORTCH!
