Early update.

Today see's the twentieth page of RPD, the last one of Episode One, a day early! I'm expecting my world to be hyper busy for the next weekend or so, which means I wanted to get Robo Pope out of the way. The latest page is up and ready to go, and there will be a new one next Friday, the fourth.

Now, this page will be a recurring theme. With each episode we complete, it'll end on one of these newspaper clipping-type pages. Kind of taking the superhero cliche of newspaper headlines that exclaim the hero's great deeds and making it the finale for each episode. It's a fun way for me to fit weird stories and a lot of humor into the text.

The next page will be up next year on January 4th, along with two new vote pages (hopefully). And to add the excitement, the newest page will a guest page! Yay!

See you folks then, and happy new year!

Christmas time!

Robo Pope is ready to celebrate his third favorite holiday, just behind his birthday and the Fonz's birthday, with his new mini-episode! Waiting for all the good little girls and boys just underneath the festive tree that is the official Robo Pope forum is the comic's first ever mini-episode. Each day until Christmas, I'll post a new page in the episode, with five in total. Packed within those pages are laughs, jokes, humor, and suspense as Robo Pope fights desperately to save Santa Claus from a psychotic Christmas tree.

Intrigued? You should be! This mini-episode is available only to those who register at the forum, which is entirely free, so get to it if you haven't already! If there's enough support for this little diversion, I'll make more in the future.

I hope that everyone has a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, krazy Kwanzaa, or a solemn Ramadan this year, and be sure to check out Page Nineteen, too!

By the time someone reads this...

I'll finally be out of school. Wicked!

My fall semester will be wrapped up today, which, in Robo-related terms, means I'll have more time to work on the comic. I'm off for the next month, though I'm still working my day job, but I'll still have enough extra time to really hammer into the comic. I'm hoping to get a lot done soon, including starting up Episode Two and posting some holiday bonus pages in the forum in the next week. For those wondering, it'll be Christmas themed. As questionable as Robo Pope's religious practices may or may not be, he still looks like a Catholic. He's got to celebrate Christmas, right?

There's no real big news, aside from Page Eighteen's debut and some upcoming holiday pages, but I still felt like updating everyone. I hope everyone digs the final few pages of Episode One and has a righteous holiday!

One last wallpaper, plus vote pages.

First off, check out Page Seventeen if you haven't already.

Second, I put up a new wallpaper a few days ago. I was planning to hold it back until Episode One was finished (just three updates left!), but I gave in to temptation and released on the same day as my birthday last Monday. It ties into the current episode, so I think everyone should check it out. Register with the forum and then check out this thread for the wallpaper. It's exclusive to the forum, so it won't be available anywhere else.

Finally, Buzzcomix and TopWebComics both have new vote pages. Buzzcomix gives a glimpse at Robo Pope's newfound popularity on the interweb while TopWebComics shows how the local newscasters are reacting to their currently-falling comrades.

That's all for now. I'll update more as we close in on the new year and kick off Episode Two. Until then, keep reading!
