NOT Story... =(

I've been wary of making posts, mostly due to the unavoidable disappointment it will draw when it's not a story post.  This isn't a story post, unfortunately - that's still in the hands of my Mystery Guest Author, a very busy person.  This post is just a quick hello, I'm still alive, and a pointer to the following cure for boredom.

Matt Boyd, over at MacHall, recently happened to pointed me to a daily (or almost) epic fantasy webcomic, written by one floppy-haired "Mookie" (who is wont to post pictures of himself passed out whenever he's too tired to do a comic).  Since a) I enjoyed it, and b) there is some genre overlap between his story and mine, I thought I'd post it to give you guys something to read while "The Murloc is Lonely" is on hold.

It's called " Dominic Deegan - Oracle for Hire", and it's a great strip – Mookie updates reliably (awkward face), and does great epic, twisting, dimension-spanning storylines, with a healthy dose of melodrama thrown in for good measure.  (There's also an abundance of really bad puns, but they're in context and par for the course.)  Mookie's got a super-solid sense of humanity: his world is the kind where good guys and bad guys alike have complex moralities, and he’s not afraid to tackle some pretty jaw-dropping political issues, too – jaw-dropping at least for those of us from the suburbs.  The strip doesn’t exactly take itself seriously, though, and, predictably, my favorite character is the cat.  Being as my line of work doesn’t involve psychic artifacts, I thankfully haven’t had to have this conversation with Ajax yet.

Have a look, kill some time, get down tonight.
