Grandpa T-Rex...alive?

One dark Halloween night...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Just a quick note to say that on Wednesday 1st December (36 days time!) Grandpa T-Rex will return for a run of cartoons that'll take you up to and into 2011. In the mean time, there'll be 'Drew' every week, and lots of one-off cartoons to keep your eyes busy.

Wait, will it really be December in just over a month?!?!?

'Drew' Week 2

Week 1 of 'Drew' can be seen here.

'Drew' Week 1

A recap of the first week of 'Drew', all in one handy digestible post. Week 2 and it's 8 brand new pages, will be up tomorrow.

'Drew': Page Changes

So, week one of 'Drew' happened. Did you like it? I hope so. Did you like the way it was presented? Because that's about to change this week.

The one problem about producing a daily webcomic is that it can feel a bit disjointed and a bit disconnected. When you're only getting two pages a day it can be hard to keep track of the story and keep the momentum of interest in it. Just as you're getting into it, it finishes and you have to wait a day to get the next piece. It's a bit like trying to see the entire jigsaw picture by looking at one piece at a time and building up the image in your mind. So rather than have two pages every day, there's going to be one post on just one day with a week's worth of pages (probably about ten, and probably this Thursday). That way you get a good chunk of story that won't feel all choppy. Why did I pick Thursday? I like Thursdays. Thursdays are good.

I said at the start that 'Drew' would be a bit of an experiment in the early stages and this is just part of it. If it works this week, it'll stick. If not, I'll find another way and in the mean time go back to 2 pages daily. If you have an opinion, then voice it. After all, you are the reader.

'Drew' returns on Monday.

'Drew' pt.4

(This is where I decided that colour is a language in Drew's world, and as a result another level of segregation. Mr. Klam is speaking Blue. You can't understand it because Drew can't understand it.)

'Drew' Preview

So the great experiment begins. I say that because I think 'Drew' is a great idea that I worry could be let down in its execution. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to undersell it, but I'd just like to say here and now that it's a project still very much in the experimental stages, and that, at 2 pages a day, it's something that will take a few weeks to really get going. Will that work in daily blog format? I don't know. I hope so. But we'll see, and your feedback is, as always, more than welcome. One page, page 1, is all you're getting today as a little preview to the story and to set up the whole premise. Usually there'll be two pages daily (one just seemed stingy), but as it's the start on Monday there'll be three. Click on the page to make it nice and big, and above all, enjoy!

Like what you see? 'Drew' starts proper on Monday, and I hope to God I can keep churning out the pages fast enough...

Grandpa T-Rex...

...dies peacefully in his sleep.

...well, reasonably peacefully.

Grandpa T-Rex will return at Christmas...
