Really long hiatus
11.06.09
Extended vacation. Extended depression.
I'm stalled by my warring desires to continue the story as-is or reboot the franchise and start something I'll be less ashamed of.
How are you? (+)

All I can do..

All I can do is promise that when I get back, it will have been worth the wait. And even then that presupposes that you thought the comic was funny in the first place.. (+)

Really, I haven't given up!

I'm just super-busy, as happens. I have to choose between deadline or comics, and deadline has to win. (+)

Characteristic Confusion (#925)
05.08.09
The only character I can think of in the Peanuts-verse who had a mustache was Spike, Snoopy's desert-living cousin - discounting the mid-70s, non-canon "Snoopy and The Peanuts Teens Mysteries" cartoon in which ALL the characters had mustaches. Shermy certainly didn't. But then, Shermy didn't do much of anything. Even though he and Patty (NOT Peppermint Patty!) were in the very first Peanuts strip, by the modern Snoopy era he had been written down to a bit character. In the classic Peanuts Christmas (aka "You Bought A Sucky Tree, Charlie Brown") Shermy had one line where he bemoaned always playing the shepherd in the Christmas pageant. In the strip his obscurity was uncharacteristically (for Peanuts, anyway) observed self-referentially in reflections about the non-notability of his crew cut.
