"When Crazy started NHE, he" said: TIAoGaC is dead. For all intents and purposes. There. I said it.
Phew. It's a load off my shoulders.
Now, hear me out. TIAoGaC was becoming a burden to me. It was orginally planned as forum comic, but it never really took off with that, introducing but 5 members. To put it more clearly, it failed as a project. I wanted to make it work as a gag-a-day (er. week) strip, but that didn't really work out, either. The page format which i adopted later was more designed for storytelling, a continuous comic book. On the other hand, i couldn't see it working at all as a smaller format. So again, failure.
But people liked it and apparently wanted me to do more. So i felt obligated somewhat. At some point i heard someone say something about a completely different subject that i believe applied pretty well. The argument went somewhere along the lines of "Imagine if Joss Whedon tried to do all of creative ideas he wanted with Buffy? What would we have missed?". So i felt it was time to move on.
And so, we come to "No Happy Endings", a final formulation of something that basically started out as scribbling in my notebook then evolved to making hand-drawn comics in my notebook for the amusement of myself and those around me.
In time, i adopted a very simple, straightforward approach. No plots, no story archs, no character background stories- hell, no characters! Everyone is to be faceless, each comic independent from the last, it's sole purpose to provide a bit of entertainment. A simple joke, a gag, with no faffing about. I could take whatever approach i wanted, whenever i wanted.
So yeah. Here's the first issue of "No Happy Endings". It's not a particularly good joke and there's not much of an image after all that text but hey - can't have everything, y'know. At least not free.
"When Crazy released NHE 6, he" said: Well, i'm hoping to start a weekly schedule now, with the comic being updated somewhere between 18.00 and 20.00 GMT every Wednesday.
"At some later point, Crazy" said: Haha, scratch that, i'm a moron.
