   i don’t know why I still read this. It’s gotten worse AND less frequent at the same time.

   It’s not like anyone’s making you read it.

   I personally don’t read anything I don’t like.

   I can’t speak about the quality of the comic because I’m biased, I do know I’ve been pretty tired lately and that reflects itself in everything I do.

   About the update frequency I’ve explained several times that I run this site as a hobby. I’ll update whenever I can, but I’m a student and obligations and duties keep popping up. In the end when I’m flooded with works and/or tests or if I’m simply tired this site isn’t a priority though I feel bad for not updating it and letting people, some who are eager to read it, down. I don’t get any compensation for doing this comic and it takes a large chunk of my time to keep it going, so it’s all for fun’s sake.

   I thank all that read this comic even when I’m not at my best, and anyway if you don’t like it why lose your time leaving a comment? Just do like I do, if I don’t like a site I close that tab and don’t read it.

   There’s so many great sites out there, take a look at the links I have on the bar on the right, all great sites: I recommend you start there.

   This comic was/is funny. I can understand the update issue. Life can get in the way of fun, and if this is a low priority that is understandable.

   Some of the earlier jokes werebetter, and the whole being a planeswalker thing is both cool, and weird.

   Every Magic player wishes to be a planeswalker. Heck, if I were one, I would create a world, and fill it with goblins, and fire. Sounds like a bad idea, but it could be cool.

   Anyway, Just letin’ ya know, you have a fan.

   Planeswalker’s nowadays don’t have the power of Urza and alike, they’re more like travelers so creating a world isn’t an easy task for a planeswalker.

   Technically players are supposed to be planeswalkers from a flavor standpoint. this has been reinforced for some time now has we keep popping in and out of planes (Kamigawa, Mirrodin, Lorwyn, etc…)

   I’m also getting a little tired of this storyline, at first it was going to be a two maybe three strips thing, but then I thought I could go on with it longer. Turns out it’s not that good of an idea, it gets tiresome and in a weird mix of storytelling and trying to fit in jokes. I did learn a lot from it, but expect this storyline to come to an end some time soon and random jokes take the spotlight once again.

   Random = fun :r:

   Thanks for your comment Mike, constructive criticism is always welcome.

   I love the comic, I personally think it has a hit rate of about 80% (meaning theres only a few comics I haven’t laughed at) which I think is fairly impressive. The one with Crib Swap and the drooling Slivers was priceless!

   80% isn’t bad

   Crib Swap and the Drooling slivers were one-shot comics. I think the comic will be more fun if I keep the jokes about the cards themselves and not have a storyline where there has to be a follow-up, I’m thinking of wrapping up this storyline in the next weeks and start the randomness all over again. Lorwyn’s so prolific to be made fun of and I think I’m wasting such good jokes with this storyline…

   Hi Tiago!

   Just leting you know that I’m still here and reading the comic. I don’t think many people share Bill Billdersons (what a strange name) sentiments. There is the occasional not-so-funny comic, but overall I think you’re doing a great job.
   I also know how much work it is to keep a comic going. I tried and failed myself, so I’m even more impressed.

   Have fun

    Mneh! You should put the donation box in a more prominent location. I had to really look to find it. And with that, please updates?

    Yeah, the whole site needs a massive redesign, I hate this color scheme.

    Unfortunately other duties have priority and in the worst case scenario I’m only free from exams on the beginning of February. So expect comics/site redesign only then.

    This small hiatus has been nice though, I’ve had some ideas going on in my head, now I know the direction I want to take the comic in.

    Storyline comics are going out the window, and I’m gonna broaden the comic not to be so magic specific (there’ll be plenty of magic in it don’t worry, but I’ll also try having some boardgame, rpg, and generally other geeky stuff )

    About the donation buttons in particular: I don’t want to draw to much attention to them, because than it feels like I’m trying to extort people for money, donations are supposed to be a kind of support to my effort towards the site, if someone is really interested in donating they’ll find the buttons.

    Dear Tiago,

    Just like to identify myself. Found this site not too long ago (read: early last December) on accident when searching up Magic webcomics. I love how you can capture the overall theme of many Magic aspects and tie them in with modern humour and references at the same time. Tagged this board under favourites, eagerly anticipating you next update.

    Yours Sincerely,
    Yamibakeru
