*Steps up onto the podium and clears his throat.*

My fellow webcomic enthusiasts... fanboys, trolls, lurkers... I am not a violent man. I am not one to take up arms without reason, to lay waste simply because it is within my power... but a gauntlet has been thrown down onto the battlefield and this is a challenge that MUST be met! No less than twenty-four hours ago, war has broken out among the collective members of Webcomic Planet. This war is quickly growing, and we, the citizens of The Lands, have been shunted aside as inconsequential. Well I ask unto you, will you stand by and take this insult?? I think not... we shall rise up! We shall move like a swarm over these so-called Mad Geniuses of Webcomic Battle and show them exactly what terrible force of Chaos they have unleashed!

I say onto you, our beloved and faithful readers! Go forth across the internet and wave the banners of "Prepare to Die"!! Leave no corner safe from our blinding multi-colored halogens of TechnoMadness!!! Together we will build a mighty tide that shall wash away this blight of war and leave only devastation in our wake. The GameMaster is rolling double crits, so let's get out there and GM SMITE them all!!!

This past Sunday I made an appearance co-hosting an episode of the TGT Webcomics Podcast. Our extra special guest for the show was my friend and yours, Stef of Sarah Zero. Head on over to their sites above, and maybe take a listen to the recorded episode now up online.

In other news, a CHALLENGE has been issued to me from my fellow webcomickers. What challenged? Well, as we journey down to the Road of Penguicon and the first WAGON Webcomic Battle Tournament, we will also be participating in a Penguicon Weight Loss Challenge. Oh yes, this challenge this challenge will be met and all competitors will be CRUSHED... but not as crushed as much as they would be, as I will be lighter than I am now. More to come I'm sure, as progress reports will be made!

And now, a special Valentine's Day message from Captain Picard:

Mike - January 11, 2010

Today I write frim the same physical location as I usually do, but instead with the help of my new laptop... which just now allowed me to actually log into my own admin area. This purchase was made in preparation of the next convention season, where I hope to go forth and kick all kinds of ass in both comic and cardgame realms, and yes it will be good. The Delta Deck is in full swing for it's pre-sale and I should be seeing the first printed decks by the end of the week.

In semi-related news, I'll be stepping up my comic production for the next week or so in order build a small buffer, as I will be take a bit of a trip out to Seattle for a week. I'm hoping to still be updating as semi-normal as usual while I'm gone, and the new lapppy will certainly help. Meanwhile, I'll be using some time to relax, work on a few random casual things, and maybe even work on my drawing skills. Yes, I know it's a shock... I might actually have a few hand-drawn things around here eventually! No worries though, I have no intention of changing the comic as I like the format that it's in.

The Delta Deck Pre-sale has begun! While we're working out the final tweeks in the cards to come in this deck, we're ready to start collecting orders for a new round of explosive action. The final call for duty in this deck brings some fantastic newcomers to the battle as well as a few veterans who are returning to the front lines:

Blue Sky
Union of Heroes
Zortic
Cy-Boar
Autumn Lake
and the return of Sarah Zero and The Best of What's Left

Like all decks to come before it,as part of this deck we are also releasing a brand new Rare Card which will be given away with every pre-ordered Delta Deck. With the permission of a man known as LittleKuriboh, we are very happy to bring you a super-special-awesome addition to the game, "Screw the Rules I Have Money".

Heya everybody, I've just managed to get a screen capture program up and running on my computer, and as a test run I made this video of me in the process of making comic 906 yesterday. Revel in the magic!

The Webcomic Readers Choice Awards for 2009 have opened up their voting booths, and WAGON Webcomic Battle has been nominated to win an award in the Community category. It's an honnor to even be nominated, but if you're a member of the webcomic world and you're interested in what we're trying to accomplish with our card game project, please consider voting for WAGON this year! Also on the docket are comics of awesomeness like The War of the Winds for best site design and Autumn Lake for best writting... let's give some of these guys the recognition that they deserve!!

Happy Halloween everyone! Oh yes, I love this holiday for many reasons... the decorations, the costumes, and of course the candy. Here's a little something I'd like to share, since this is the only time of year that I can... Hope you all have a great weekend!

And in other news...

The Webcomic Beacon, in association with WAGON Webcomic Battle, is happy to announce the brand new 'Draw Becky' contest! To win, you'll need to create your own version of Becky, the Webcomic Beacon spokesgirl, to be used on an upcomming Podcast-themed card for the WAGON TCG. The first place winner will have their artwork used on the offical card, and they will recieve both a copy of the card for themselves and a copy of the next WAGON deck, which is currently in progress. For full details, head on over to the offical contest page and learn how to get in on the action. All submissions must be in by November 28th, so get in on this while the getting is good!

So another chapter draws to a close, and a new chapter will soon begin. The fairies of the Lost Woods have been saved, but the Tailisman of Life has been taken by Emperial Soldiers. The Captain and his boys saved Over There from the squirrels, but The Carlson seems indifferent to the threat to the people from the shadowy "GameMaster". Where the heck do we go from here?

I'm going to be spending the week away from making regular comics so I can prepare for the next chapter... meanwhile I hope to get some Random Geekness up to help fill the gap, and perhaps re-vive the old "PTD on..." series of mini webcomic reviews. I've certainly got enough of them on my plate right now to work with!

Much more to come for Prepare to Die, don't you worry about that. Stay tuned.
