Life Outside the Blog

I have to say, we started this not knowing what to expect. I was just sketching for fun, and didn’t really expect this many people to enjoy the strip. I checked the numbers on thewebcomiclist, and we’re 740 or 8457, which puts us in the top 10 percent! This is really a boost to my ego, and I think I’ll try to keep making strips, hopefully more throughout each week, and I think due to the great changes on the site by our webmaster, I’ll start going full color at strip 50. Thanks to all of you who read USSR Comics regularly, or just glance at it. You guys make a cartoonist feel proud…or at least justified for his work…

Well we’re almost done moving to a new system to manage and organize our comics! The biggest noticeable change is that the archives page now lists titles for each comic and allows you to sort them however you want. There is also a column for the date, although that’s inaccurate right now. Fixing it is another thing on our todo list. I hope everything works fine (I coded a lot of it very quickly) so please don’t hesitate to let us know if you see any problems!

We’re putting the comic on Onlinecomics.net, so hopefully we’ll get some more traffic to our site. For those that are new to USSR Comics (which should be a lot of you), feel free to click around- check out the bios and older strips, feel free to email either of us with questions/compliments/complaints, or check out some other strips that I hope we’ll be as popular as one day. I’m enjoying this project, and I hope you guys and gals will too.
