Anyone who remembers Gunnar Thorson, or has read Hob or the fiction elements of CºNTINUUM knows dramatic business is close to our artistic heart.
And that heart has been a comic series that we’ve dropped hints about, from Dragon*Con to d8 magazine, for the past twenty years. Before midnight Pacific Time on Friday, November 25, AD 2005, the first page of Aether Tales posted.
Decades of ever-changing plans have led us to make a simple launch. To just… begin. It’s the way of the web, as it seems the wisest way to proceed in the world. There should be a new page every Friday, but the work will, ultimately, proceed at its own pace. Odds are this is what we’ll be doing with the lion’s share of our art time for the rest of our lives.
Yamara fans should not be disheartened, though. Quite the contrary: A weekly Aether Tales will show whether Chris can get up to speed in drawing. There are already enough Yamara strips in existence to run two a week from here through May, 2006. There is more story and more funny to go in Yamara, and we expect to be able to start rolling her tale forward again by then.
Off we go.
I thought it was going to be different;
It turned out to be(,) just the same.
