    I still need to finish catching up on achewood

    like, I enjoy it every time I see it posted

    but for whatever reason I can't motivate myself to read it all the way through

    Hahahaha! I love how memorable Morgan Freeman's voice is, because anytime I see something like that I can perfectly imagine him speaking it.

    I got to talk to Chris Onstad on the phoooone

    he was in Austin (where my girl goes to school) and she waited in line three hours and I got to talk to him

    I'd just passed a kidney stone and he gave me advice on how to eat to avoid them
    I read this at first with the understanding that Skull Man had a daughter. Then I actually read it correctly and I'm still shocked that Skull Man could manage to get a special lady.
    Skull Man's lady is foxy as hell, he's a lucky dude.

    Actually, the covers from early-80s Playgirls usually just had misleading pictures of Tom Selleck.

    my very favorite achewood
    god i love it i love it

    i think this is the first strip you show to someone who has never read achewood

    it is a winner
    you really need to know how crazy pete is to fully appreciate i think

    In what way is it unclear?

    I really don't like that he's been skimping on comics and peddling his "premium" (aka paid) content at every opportunity.

    Like he puts out the same number of strips as he used to, except now you have to pay to see half of them.

    If he wants to do paid content fine, hell it's been around for years plus merchandise and he just released a very successful book

    truncating your previously free content just seems excessive.

    Basically.

    I'm curious about how many are actually making the leap to subscription though.

    i sort of got the impression that it's more that he's spread himself too thin

    all the tours and stuff especially have cut down on the number of strips

    the only time i've seen anything about the premium stuff is more like 'no strip today but a preview in the subscriber area'

    half a strip doesn't sound great to me

    I've been considering signing up for premium Achewood, at least for a little while. It's three bucks a month ffs. Also, we should keep in mind that Onstad does the strip full-time and doesn't have external advertising anywhere on his site, so he needs subscribers and merch customers to keep putting food on the table.

    Dude needs to stop trying to sell me a bunch of bull I don't care about and start updating his fucking webcomic. I don't care if you're busy on your fantastic book tour!

    Honestly I think he should have just stopped the thing after the wedding. Everything after that has been rather middling in my opinion.

    EDIT: especially this Connie Dates Stripper storyline that has just been boring as sin.
