Gone with the Blastwave http://www.blastwavecomic.com Gone with the Blastwave (c) 2005 - 2007 Kimmo Lemetti 20 http://www.blastwavecomic.com/images/page/rss_logo.jpg http://www.blastwavecomic.com Comics Woo I still remembered the admin passwords! err, stuff. lalala. T-shirt matter is being investigated. I added a picture of the moment thing on the right there. It's basically screenshots of random doodles or other things I am working on... so you people who check this site every single day like somekind of robots might have something new to look at once in a while. Shameless plug . I'll try to update again this summer. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=41 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=41 This is like May update. I'm making a new blastwave page! I will upload it next month. After that hopefully I will start a bit more frequent updating. Again. For a while. As far as I know atleast 20 000 of you still visit this page almost everyday. Which is weird. You're weird. _______________ I have nothing to say to you! (Before you ask, it's Cortex Command ) So next comic will be coming in... 2009. If you need a reason why it took so long to update, I have about 5 of them. But the shortest answer is "lack of interest". I've said it alot of times: This comic is not my job nor a real passion. It's fun, but not THAT fun. Frequent 'periods of inactivity' are just how it all works out. Blastwave won't end untill it is done. I wanted to use the line "fucking campers" but since this comic sort of is not a gamer only comic, lots of people probably wouldn't have understood. Also, since I have effectively stopped playing games online, I don't know how widely used that term is nowadays. And I'm a total wuss and don't dare to say fuck in the comic. ____ The "Give me money" portion of this post starts here: If you weren't here at any point during that... 6 months, I have made it easier for you to give me your money. First if you're finnish, the book can now be found closer and most likely cheaper than before. There's links in the store . Also countries near finland might get it a bit cheaper if some of those shops ship outside of finland... but I haven't checked. Also heard that some shop in england has like 10 copies. Also I started selling the poster I made ages ago on the deviantart shop . And devart has these weird print sizes that force me to put black stuff around the image. Just cut those out and it should look ok. I was thinking of doing shirts. But I have no idea how vector files work and I'm way too lazy to read what these online shops tell me to do. I have a few ideas that I thought would be kinda fun. This would be 3 shirts then there would be the basic logos Please note that I am NOT looking for help with these at this time. Secret link http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=40 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=40 So yeah, It's been a while. I was hoping I could have gotten a new page up by now, but now it looks like it's gonna be a while longer. At the start of this 'period of inactivity' it was just me not feeling like doing anything. Then somewhere along the way it turned into me not having time to do anything. __________________ Been a long fucking while. __________________ To make absolutely sure there won't be an update this weekend... I PROMISE I WILL UPDATE THIS WEEKEND! : D __________________ And as predicted, it's not done. I have like one panel to go, but I wanna sleep. So TOMORROW, you will get another sub-bar page of blastwave! http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=39 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=39 And there you have it. It's 2nd of july. So Blastwave is officially 2 years old. 18 pages were released during this second year. Oh yeahhh. _ Pretty much forgot. If you didn't see this before: The book can now be ordered through Amazon.com, from here . This might be a good alternative to those who for one reason or another do not want to use PayPal. As far as I know, this does not give you much better shipping costs if you live outside of america, but there is that chance. The link will be added to the store once one of my people gets an access to a computer. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=38 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=38 As an idea... one of my favorite pages thusfar. But I'm really not happy with this page. Will possibly redraw it for the printed release. If there is gonna be another one. You could make it possible by buying the Volume 1. *hint hint nudge nudge wink wink* ____ Edited the page a bit. Hopefully it's even a bit more clear now. Oh, and hey! Completely mysterious link . ____ The book can now be ordered through Amazon.com, from here . This might be a good alternative to those who for one reason or another do not want to use PayPal. As far as I know, this does not give you much better shipping costs if you live outside of america, but there is that chance. Next comic update should happen this week. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=37 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=37 See that guy in the middle of the first panel? He looks weird... Weird . ___ You can now order the Gone with the Blastwave Vol.1 from the store ! (Again: You do NOT need to have a paypal account to pay.) (go on... buy one so I can go to LA this summer) Gone with the Blastwave Vol.1 features "slightly adjusted" versions of the first 32 pages, an awesome cover and some text on the back. It has been printed in the US, so the shipping costs are quite high for anyone outside north america, but... it's the best we can do at the moment. If it sells good, we could possibly maybe perhaps print a batch in europe sometime in the far future. (This is in no way planned yet. It is purely wishful thinking at this point.) Also because it's being printed in the US, I unfortunately cannot offer signed copies (Me being on a different continent and all that.). It is not hard cover. You will only be able to get one by ordering online for the time being. I think that was all the info I had for the time being. E-mail me if you have questioons. ___ Oh and. If someone has done translations (and made sure they follow the guidelines I set) and they are not linked on this page... Know that I do not link anything unless it has been e-mailed to me . I don't read the forums actively enough to know if someone finished a page and posted it there. And if you have e-mailed me, and its still not linked, and you did not get a reply with possible reasons why... e-mail me again. ___ Well as you can probably see, the page was not up yesterday. And it is not up today. I was gonna delay it for just a day, but I'm not really happy how it came out. So I'll have a fresh look at it tomorrow to see if I can make it better. Also I updated the info to include a very important point that I have previously forgotten to tell you people. I only work on this stuff on the weekends. And few days after the weekend if I really wanted to get the page up, and for somereason didn't. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=36 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=36 Im updating Cheesy oneliner, bitches. ______________ added: Holy shit it's saturday already. ehhehehe... lets see if I can get a page up by tomorrow. added again: I thought I had an idea, but then I didn't. This might take a while. Ok I say... wednesday! Lets see if that comes true. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=35 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=35 I completely forgot what I was going to type here. Oh yeah. Some of you guys might remember that I kinda promised a weekly schedule after "1 or 2" pages. Well now there's gonna be a 2 week pause (again! Yay!) because I have to do some stuff for this school application thing (you know, them art schools make you draw stuff for them). After that's all done... It MIGHT happen. The printed version (magazine thing) is taking longer than was... um... previously told. I don't know the exact reason for this, but anyways. I asked in the poll if this comic would still be funny if there was no "almost serious" art style involved. Some people of course thought I was thinking of making the art style simpler. I would never do that. I posted this poll simply to make you think how important the art is in comics (in general). If it didn't make you think that, maybe this explanation did. Bunny. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=34 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=34 Seems like half the planet is having a birthday this month. Mine's on the 9nth. I turn 20. I am then officially old. And I just know you guys are eager to reward me for the ground breaking work I've done in these past 6 weeks! So just click the paypal button and (Button apparently broken for no apparent reason. Way to go.) send me money so I can buy a Wii! (If you didn't notice, I was being sarcastic... I swear, there's always like 20 people who don't get.) I could give somekind of a long and elaborate explanation why I didn't update... but then I remember that I have gone longer periods not updating without explanation in the past. So that obviously means that I don't have to explain. The tutorial has been updated a bit. For those who are interested . Agh goddamnit. I'll just put up the next page next sunday. I blame Seraph and Eiffel. Meanwhile. You can see a guest comic I colored for Multiplex . I don't know if just coloring a comic is worth mentioning, but it gives me an excuse to send the masses that way. Ur mom is an overpriced print. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=33 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=33 Don't worry, there will be a funny page in a few months. The RSS feed was recently ... replaced with a working one. So you might need to subscribe to it again. Or not. I don't know how that thing works. -Latest addition- Wait one more day. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=32 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=32 Rate how good the new font and speechbubbles are in the poll over to the right of this box. Thank you. No really... Do it. In other news... I have lots of free time. I didn't pimp this here yet: My comic space . And I am not really planning a romantic high-school drama comic. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=31 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=31 Hey, I'm back after just 4 days! Got my military service postponed for a year thanks to my weak back. So... thats that then. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=30 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=30 The domain should now be pointing here. Those of you who missed the info on my personal page: The pages were down for a while because I pressed some button without really knowing what would happen. There also was problems with the domain and the old host, so the transfer took a while. The old forums have been abandoned over a month ago. These pages are still unfinished. I currently have no clue if the RSS feed works. The info has been updated alot. Ill be leaving to the army on 8th of january... next monday. Aiming to update once before it. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=29 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=29 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=28 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=28 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=27 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=27 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=26 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=26 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=25 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=25 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=24 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=24 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=23 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=23 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=22 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=22 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=21 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=21 Old news have been lost. http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=20 http://blastwavecomic.com/index.php?p=comic&nro=20 Old news have been lost.
