I'm Gumby, Dammit!
Added 2025-08-12 12:09:57 +0000 UTCOriginally, I thought a video about the history of Comico might be something I get to in a month or so. But on the weekend I went over the research material I had sitting in a folder, made a few notes, made a few more notes and then, suddenly, I had a 2200 word mess of a document sitting in front of me. Then it was 3800 words.
Yesterday it suddenly coalesced into exactly what I wanted. The narrative flow was right there staring at me, but I couldn't see it. Eight or ten hours later I had the script pretty much beat into shape.
So, that's what I'm working on next: The rise, fall and slow, excruciating death of Comico, a comic company. Title to be determined.
Since I'm getting a late start I'm not sure if it'll get done by the end of the week. But I'm sure going to try. Worst case scenario is it's Monday or Tuesday next week.
This is going to be a brutal week. I better get to it.

I really liked the video on Comico. I was wondering if you are going to do a video on the Sam & Max comics? I discovered Sam & Max throug the Hit The Road video game back in the 1990s. I only learned that there was a comic years later. Had to wait until they reprinted the Surfin the Highway collection to read it. Tracking down the original was to difficult and expensive.
