Hi all,
So this is the project I was talking about a few days ago: Alternatives to the Fail Whale it’s going to run on the www.lukesurl.com/alternatives subdomain once a weekday over the next 4 weeks till we get to Z. The comic for ‘G’ is already up there now, why not go and have a look? (People not familiar with a Fail Whale - see here)
A few points:

  • I hope you like this project, but if not, the mainsite comics will be back on the 26th of July.
  • If you are an RSS subscriber your RSS reader will not automatically pick up the ‘Alternatives’ comics. They have their own, shiny new RSS feed.
  • These comics were created in a 24-hour comic event (start at 9am, finish at 9am). The enforced speed and lack of sleep of such an event means that these are a little rougher and less detailed than my usual stuff.
  • Although I’m giving myself a month’s ‘holiday’ I doubt I’ll be able to stay away from doodling for long. Check back here occasionally (or keep an eye on the RSS feed) for the occasional sketching.

Peace,

L
