The New Face of Roland & Cid
Over the years I’ve gone back and forth over the merits of maintaining a website for the likes of Roland & Cid. I could tell by the statistics on the site that very few readers were visiting the site, and even fewer were coming back. Then I thought, “well, screw it!” I should have a place where the one or two fans can find my archives. So, here we are.
On the dawn of my seventh anniversary of drawing the comic every week, I’ve decided to make my entire archives available online. I’ve found a very nice piece of themed wordpress blog plugin called COMICPRESS, which is rather powerful and eliminates almost all of my excuses for not posting my comic each week.
It can’t all happen at once, with my limited schedule, so I’ve started with the beginning, and the ending, and I’ll fill in the middle as I go. I’ve started with 62 comics of the 354 in my library, and I’ll fill in the gaps in the weeks ahead.
Thank you to Reno News & Review and Tucson Weekly for faithfully publishing my comic over the past seven years (and years to come). Both Brian Burghart and Jimmy Boegle have been very gracious editors, and done very little to no interfering with my comic’s content. Sometimes, to their own detriment. Also, thanks to my brother Bob, my number one fan and cheerleader. If you want to join the fan club, give him a call. He’ll give you a signed photograph of himself for joining.
Also, check out my new comic in the workshop phase Robots With Brains! I hope to get some sort of syndication for that one in the future.
