News and Notes!
March 2004
Yup, this is the end of Silly Cone V. At least until I finish my
Ph.D degree. So maybe look for it in a few years. :) I'll see
if I can't scavenge some time then and restart it. But in the mean
time, why don't you go look for a nice replacement comic. The one mentioned in my final strip
is quite nice and worth a look. The author happens to be a good friend
of mine and could use a few new readers. Also, any of the strips in the line
up on the left hand side of the page is worthy of your perusal as well.
However, the two that stand out the most are Goats
and Men in Hats. Both are also done
by two gentlemen I'd consider to be on friendly terms with. And both are
far, far superior comics. If you've read one or two strips of theirs and
not gone back, I suggest trying again. For Goats,
I recommend the first Twix
Saga if you're excessively cerebral or
Kittens = Poptarts if you love poptarts excessively. Just start reading.
For Men in Hats I suggest you start at the very beginning or
jump right to one of my favorite strips here.
It's been a long long 3 and a half years or so of Silly Cone V, and I
still have tons of ideas for it. I'm still hoping to put some of those
ideas into ink and paper at some point, but we'll have to wait on that.
I'd like to thank all of you readers. Making comics is fun. Making comics
on a regular schedule, however, is sheer agony sometimes. You guys are
what made it all worth while. Sorry to leave you in the lurch like this.
Anyway, feel free to drop me a line and bitch at me for being lazy, and maybe
I'll tell you the answers behind Aidan's existance, what happened to Pierre,
or whether or not Reese is gonna hook up with Devon! Or maybe I'll just grunt
and squeal like a piggy or something. Who knows!
