I Find Your Lack Of Faith Disturbing

In lieu of a blog tonight, please enjoy this Phoenix original haiku:

a white plastic spork
met three silver spoons last night
stuck-up spoons are dumb

In other news, I am tired. See you all next week.

The little hand says it’s time to rock and roll,

PS This comic is officially posted, because my Twitter says it is.

Rachel Ray Scares Me A Little

Sorry about the short hiatus, folks. But I told you we’d be back with something pretty! Yay!

So, RHoM.omg’s first anniversary is quickly approaching. I know, right? We’ve got a couple things in the works to celebrate, so stay tuned! On that note, anyone have any ideas/requests for tshirts? We’d like to roll those out rather soon, and “fan” input would be appreciated (send your ideas to rhomcomics@gmail.com)!

Couple small changes and one larger planned change here on the RHoM site. I’ve updated the first two strips to be consistent with later, larger sizes. So that’s exciting. Also on the docket is removing the images from the Comic Archive page to make it a little easier on those with slow internet (you’re welcome, Mom and Dad). So keep an eye out for that.

OH ALSO please update your bookmarks from rhom.tk to rhomomg.wordpress.com. Fantastically awesome. Thank you. See you all next week.

I don’t like the way the sky sounds,

PS I wrote this comic pantsless.

“Power, Wisdom and Courage” Would Be A Good Band Name

The gang went shopping. You can tell it’s the same day because they’re all in the same clothes, clearly. I decided that a strip of them saying, “I think we need to go to the store.” “You’re right! Let’s go.” “Yes, let’s shall.” would be pretty lame. So we’ll fill up this week’s blog with that lameness instead, and give you some nice video game humor in the comic proper. And don’t you worry, you’ll see more of Gene, Neph, and Captain Bob soon. Oh, also the eventual return of MYSTERY GIRL. Keep your britches on. You too, ladies.

Keep an eye out on the rest of the site, such as our Comic Archive, a quick and easy (and updated weekly!) way to check out the newest comic without cutting through all this blog nonsense, our characters page with info about our crazy cast and soon to be updated with ZOMG PICTURES, or maybe even our comic info or author info pages. That’s all the self-promotion for today. I’ll let Artista promote her art blog on her own frakking time. See y’all next week.

Gahh Frakking Title

My gods there is something about that color of polo shirts that screams, well, something. You can fill in the blank as you wish.

Spring semester started today for me, hense the late-ish post. Well, it’s still Monday, so it’s not late. We’ve been on time or early every comic this year so far! Whoo! Let’s try and keep that going. That’s our resolution to you, the readers. In return, your resolution to us should be to tell EVERYONE YOU KNOW about our comic. Spread the word, people!

Well, if you will excuse me, I’m feeling a little under the weather. That’s all the blog you get for this week, people. See you next week, with exciting new developments for our heroes!

When I’m sick, I stop being sick and be awesome instead. True story.

Big Bang Chuck Office Your Mother

Extra super long bonus awesome extended director’s cut special comic this week! Merry Christmas, etc. We may or may not be back next week, so everyone enjoy family time and their holidays.

Stiney! Fetch me a danish!

Phoenix

PS Does your family have a manzanita Christmas tree?

Pants O’Clock

One part video game humor, with a healthy dose of movie references, all topped off with a recycled punchline! Yay webcomics!

Sorry for the super late comic. It’s finals season. See you all next week.

Mine is an evil laugh! Now die!

Phoenix

PS You have no idea how hard it was to get this week’s comic up and uploaded. Shut it.

Wie Sagt Man DINOSAUR

Today’s television adventures included Jurassic Park on Telemundo, Mythbusters, and the British House of Commons on C-SPAN. I gotta tell ya, British politics is a spectator sport. American politics have got nothing on those Limeys. I’m sure some of the “best of” House of Commons meetings could be found on the youtubes. I’d recommend checking it out.

Here’s a break from OMGDRAMA. Plus, I’m sure you were getting tired of Charlie and Rose. Figured we should see just what Wednesday and Paige have been up to. The usual, it seems.

Happy (American) Thanksgiving in advance, everyone. Hope you all have safe trips back home, as the case may be, and enjoy family time and such. See you all next week.

Indeed.
Phoenix

PS Bacon. It’s the food that makes other food worth eating.

Happy Hallowe’en!

Clearly a bonus midweek comic makes up for the lack of updates lately. Enjoy our bonus Hallowe’en special!

Here’s the internet video sources for the costumes:
-Gene Romano as Gary Brolsma
-Neph Sancho as Dr. Tran (language warning!)
-Charlie Lamaine as Pen the Human
-Paige Turner as the Dramatic Chipmunk
-Mr. Wednesday as George Washington (language warning!)
-Rose Radley as the Dancing Banana

Runner-ups include Kenya, Badger, Self-Defense, The End of the World and of course Dr. Horrible. Hope you all have a safe and fun Hallowe’en.

Peculiar thing about this document, it was never notarized,

PS What are all of YOU going to be for Hallowe’en?

I Almost Forgot A Title

And we’re back!

I’ll start with some important stuff first, so you can get on with your lives quicker. Mentioned briefly in last week’s post was a special activity. Well, we’ve decided to turn that special activity into a full-blown contest. Here’s the official rules:
* Insert your own dialogue into this comic.
* Try to keep it clean, kiddies.
* Email your submission to rhomcomics@gmail.com.
* All entries must be submitted no later than June 21, 2008 11:59pm PST. That gives you about a month.
* We authors will decide on our favorite and award that person with a unique, one-of-a-kind, autographed RHoM tshirt! Shiny!
*No, Wednesday, you can’t enter.

So get those creative juices flowin’ and let’s see what you’ve got!

How’d you like the art this week? Pretty snazzy, eh? We might just have to invest in a tablet of our own once Artista gives Ginger this one back. We’ve got big plans for the future, folks.

This week’s comic in particular has shown me the importance of compromise and collaboration in a project like this. When I first read the script idea, I wasn’t a big fan. I thought it was silly. But, it’s not my comic, it’s ours, so the draft was finalized and the art was drawn. Seeing it here in it’s completed form, I realize a few things. First, my opinion counts for close to goram nothing, but most of you knew that already. Second, trust in my partners. They do good work, and they won’t let me, or you, down. Third, sometimes the ‘best’ scripts make the ‘worst’ comics, and vice versa. Basically, it doesn’t even matter. This is a collaboration, first and foremost, and my initial reaction was manly and impulsive. This week’s is a fantastic comic. And I had nothing to do with it’s writing or arting. So, there. Enough of that.

Finals week for me. Putting the comic and blog up early so I can sleep. Enjoy the comic, everyone. See you next week. In the mean time, enter the contest, leave us comments, visit the blogroll, and go see Indiana Jones.

Also, je suis un bear. That is all.

So long, Lao Che,

Phoenix

PS You really want to win this contest. Trust me.

Meddling Kids

This is almost an exact transcription of the internal dialogue I had with myself while deciding what to wear to see Iron Man opening day. Big surprise that one of the few times I fret about my outfit is when I go to see a comic book movie.

And what an incredible comic book movie it was. By far one of the best so far. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it, for fans and non-fans alike. For you Marvel fans, make sure you stay for after the credits. It’s worth it. All of us here at RHoM enjoyed it thoroughly.

Make sure you definitely click to enlarge this week, as the comic is now bigger and better! New and improved! Lowers cholesterol! Tastes great! Et cetera. We experimented with panel sizes versus speech bubbles sizes, and I think we’ve found something that will work well. We’re still falling into our groove, so to speak, so that means we’ll only get better with time! Like a fine wine, or cheese. Or your mom. Heeeyy-ooooo!

I always think of all these great things to talk about in the blog during the week, and promptly blank as soon as I sit down to post. So, I apologize for my babble-vomit. Anyway, enjoy the comic, leave us comments, join the Facebook group, visit our links below, read through the “archives”, and be excellent to each other. See y’all next week.

That’s how dad did it, that’s how America does it, and it’s worked out pretty good so far,

Phoenix

PS Seriously, go see Iron Man.
