Far Out There

I’ve been sticking a note at the top of all these explaining that I’m mirroring the comics on social media due to “SmackJeeves shenanigans.” What I meant was that SmackJeeves was planning to switch over to a new mobile reader-based set up, and I wanted a backup in case the site was having trouble staying online. Well, I’m writing this the night of the new site going live… and I’m gonna keep mirroring content because I absolutely hate the new set up. It’s EXTREMELY appropriate that this comic should be the one I’m loading now, because that’s pretty much my feelings over new SmackJeeves. Expect some news about a dedicated Far Out There website coming VERY soon.

(Historical Notes: OH RIGHT!  I loaded a few extra pages in advance to try and cover the whole site change over.  No WONDER I was having trouble remembering what the “last page” actually was. Well, now we know the first page on the NEW SmackJeeves was of Megaweapon… which is appropriate in a great many ways.  Also, just to clarify for anybody confused, the tumblr versions of these posts had an extra bit of text up top explaining why I was posting the entire comic and commentary instead of just a thumbnail and blurb.  There obviously wasn’t much reason to post that here, since it wasn’t in the original text… but from this point on, the “original” is just a quick blurb due to the new SmackJeeves limitations on length.  Man, they really did break everything all at once, didn’t they?)
