Hey everyone. Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still around. Sorry for no comic goodness lately. New job is going well and it is extremely busy here. Plus, school is a real pain. I hope to find some time to think of some more Rose City adventures soon.

Sorry there hasn't been an update. Schuyler has been pretty busy looking for work after his unfortunate lay off. Hopefully he finds something soon so that we can start bringing you back some good comics. I will try and write some in the mean time, so prepare for that agony.

On another note, I recorded a podcast with my good friend Aaron awhile back and now it is available to listen too. I do apologize in advance for my annoying voice. Also the file size is a little large, but we are still learning how to do this whole podcast thing. Check it out here at the Contradiction Radio blog just click the link there. Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

Lastly, I have started a daily art thing which is viewable here . Check it out if so inclined.

This is, sadly, a true story. Show Schuyler some love or alternately, if you live in Ohio and know of an IT job, let him know. I'll give you free sketches or something.

Disturbingly amazing.

Sorry about last week. I had an accident at work and cut my finger open really bad. Had to get stitches and it was of course my middle finger on my drawing hand. I am better now and here is the comic. Hope you enjoy.

Schuyler really punched this up and took a less than funny script I wrote and turned it funny. Even when he is supposed to be on vacation I still make him work.

Too long unseen characters return for this strip that should be the start of a story arc. I was reading back through the archives the other day and was really enjoying it, finding that I missed some of the characters we don't use as much now. My hope is that this arc can bring some of them back.

This thing will be a writing colab between myself and sky. He has enrolled in school and it is my hope to help ease his burder by helping him write the comic for a few weeks. Hopefully you guys will enjoy it.

My apologies about no comic last week, there was some unexpected and unforunate developments for my family that needed to be dealt with.

However there is new comics now, so look at it in awe. Or shame. Which ever you think is more appropiate. Schuyler has indeed started attending classes again, which is great news. With this in mine cut us some slack the next few weeks while we figure out how much school work he has. There might even be a few strips written by yours truly. So who knows. I can tell you are excited though.

We'll see next week.

Bomb the Music Industry just has too many songs an old guy can relate too. Comic here. A little rushed, a friend of mine is in town from California and am hanging out with him tonight.

200 comics?! Who would have thought we would make it this long. Craziness I say. Craziness.

There's cake in the breakroom.

-Pogues

We can use it as evidence.

I wasn't feeling well the other day and with the busy weekend, I didn't get a story out. Sorry!

-Sky

As promised. Bask in my talent!!!!

The comic is still coming. I'm trying to draw it. I was vacationing this past weekend, and I thought I'd give Pogues a little one too. I did something online with Sumo Paint, but I hate it. I'm going to try and do something a little better.

New comic. This apparently happened when Schuyler and his lovely wife got chinese over the weeked. Makes you wonder. Fame and fortune here we come.

In other news I updated my livejournal with two new post. Nothing that exciting. Also updated my deviantArt with similar stuff and a work in progress I am doing if you are so interested in that sort of thing.

Lastely, Streetlight Manifesto released their new album yesterday and it is amazing. 99 Songs of Revolution vol. 1 is a cover album and one of the best I have ever heard. Streetlight covering "Punk Rock Girl", "Me and Julio" and "Such Great Heights" is enough to make me all excited. Its nice to know they like some of the same bands I do haha. I eagerly await the release of more volumes, but who knows how that will work out since their record label and them are in a bit of a fight as usual. Check out the album if you are so inclined and buy it here. Ten dollars plus a free poster. Same goes for the vinyl or buy a t-shirt with it and get it for $18. How is that not a great deal? I just bought a bunch of stuff from their site. Try not to buy it from a store though as their record label pretty much rapes them of any money they get from those sales.

Yeah record labels. Bomb the Music Industry!

-Pogues

Comic splendidness is up for all of you to enjoy. Bask in its warm, comforting glow. You are truly home.
