Author Notes:
Well, we have the return of Karl, who some of you may recognize as MarshmallowGherkin (though, less so now that his avatar looks like a nightmare version of a pacman ghost..) and Chuck, based on a friend of mine.
Just wanting to show where a few of the characters are as we wrap up this portion :D This part ties directly into next week's comic, so it was important for that too :D
Also, if you only check on regular update days, June uploaded a bonus image for having reached 50 thousand unique views (According to Comicfury), so we're pretty excited about that. Oh, and as of... a few hours ago, when you're seeing this, I am buying the webspace for Greymeat.com to work as more than a cheap redirect. We might have a temporary site up for a while as June is still working on her design. But hopefully it'll be ready to launch sometime soon.
Have a great weekend everyone! Thank you for reading!!
Any way, I hope that this one is drawn ok. Oh, one more thing I must apologise for is the over use of blurs and gradients. *I* thought they look spiffy, but you may find them offensive to the eyes. We'll see what you say about that!
You may notice that Karl is eating fast food. Don't be fooled! It's still TOGM, be it in a hamburger, shake or clinic distribution centre! This world just happen to have fast food outlets for TOGM, like we have McDonald's and Starbucks! (Or in our case here in Canada, Tim Hortons!) Remember, the enlightened tend to want to recreate what life was like once...
Hope you're having a great week, and only two more updates until the impending "END OF BOOK ONE" dun dun dun ...

@Skrael Last week I saw a combination Tim Horton's and Cold Stone Creamery. Paradise is on Earth .
@Magravan: Well, have no fear, my old icon will be back as soon as I upload some more comics to ghosts so I can choose other forms of promotion.
@Skrael: The gradients look great! I like the headlights in the first panel.
Also: Mmm.... Tim Hortons.
@Lessum convince James of that one :P
@Moizmad Thanks! I liked panel 2 as well! Also, does your name mean "I'm always mad" ? I just thought it sounded like that :) (Not that I think you are always mad!! You're nice) :)
@Eternal Phantom Fate being nice to John? Never! And, what's Cold Stone Creamery? Is that the ice cream place that mixes your ice cream on the spot on that huge frozen piece of marble (or something,I saw it on TV once. Looked YUMMY)
@Jennfer Thanks! Though it's not entirely us, a lot of people have submitted guest art and comics too! :) We're on the 73rd actual TOGM right now.
@MarshmallowGherkin - Firstly, thanks! And secondly, I imagine that the food may look and smell good, but the main ingredient is just different and creative incarnations of TOGM (much like our heavily corn-based diet - Watch King Corn if you want to know what I mean)
The Phantom you say! A ghost zombie?!!!
What's next?! Werewolfenstein? Count Dracututankhamun?! STEAM PUNK PENGUIN PIRATE NINJAS?!!!!!!! I like it!
by Yahoo, so yes, Mo (Maureen) was indeed MAD! But after I cooled down, I kept it, as
it does "kind of" describe me. Thx for asking.
Sort of like PB&J.. I love it, but if I had to spend years eating solely PB&J, it wouldn't be as yummy..
@NarcoticVenus - Follow what?
@DreamSanguine - GoDaddy, I think... It's where we got our domain name, and they offered us a deal to get hosting as well.. What site allows you unlimited bandwidth and webspace for free? And what's the catch? :)
The major reason why we wanted our own webspace was that it protects us from the whims of others, and we can put whatever we want up on it (mainly a forum at the moment). Another reason, I suppose is that I felt awkward mirroring the comic on other webcomic hosts when CF was our main site. It's sort of like eating your Big Mac in a Burger King... At least if our main site is exclusively for TOGM, and all the others are mirrors, then it feels better to me...
That said, we're not planning on doing anything different on this site. We'll still upload at the same time, we'll still put up author's notes and answer people who comment. (So long as we keep author's comments anywhere, anyways.. If we get to the point where it makes more sense just to use the forum, we might go that route.. But that'll happen regardless of whether or not we're mirroring things.)
tl;dr - We're planning to mirror it, but it wont affect how our comic is run on CF.
