Big news! Furrlough #190, the first issue of Furrlough in the new, perfect-bound format is listed in the latest issue of the Diamond Previews catalog! That means it’s time to politely pester your local comics retailer about pre-ordering copies for you! The Diamond order code for Furrlough #190 is MAY101102. By using these helpful item codes, your retailer will be able to find and order the books for you with a minimum of fuss! Furrlough #190 is scheduled to ship in July 2010.
Furrlough #190 will be in the same format as our latest issue of Genus, complete with perfect-bound spine, matte cover stock and high quality white paper inside. The art is absolutely gorgeous! Cover is by Diana Harlan-Stein.
Pre-ordering is a matter of life and death for small-press comics, as many comic retailers are unwilling to take a chance on special interest comics during these difficult economic times. Letting your retailer know that you really want this book (and using the order codes above) doesn’t just help us, it helps support your local comic shop as well! Pre-order your copies today!
For those of you without access to a local comic store at all, we will be putting up pre-order pages for both titles on our online store once the scheduled shipping time gets closer.

My math sucks. ~.~
As such – I posted the updates to Ebin and May wrong. Last week and this week’s Ebin and May will post on Thursday and Saturday. Next week it will return to it’s typical Tuesday/Thursday schedule.

It appears our online store is down quite suddenly, as the hosting company we use is having some sort of issues. We’re hoping to get this resolved as quickly as possible, but unfortunately do not have an ETA on when they will have said issues resolved.
We do apologize for the outage on the store and will let you all know as soon as possible when it is back online. Thank you in advance for your patience.
EDIT TO ADD: And our store hosting guys have got it fixed! Hooray, big props to them!

A quick little sketch an upcoming character, “Stormhoof.” She’s a “Speaker” — a cross between a professional messenger, and a historian. Speakers are chosen from the fastest runners in the tribes.

Coloring for comics is MUCH harder than I thought! I normally don’t do flat color, and it’s a real challenge to find the right color matches to make a picture turn out as you’d like it. I still want to go back and tweak it.
