UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

  1. Some friction, but yeah. IRL, I’d like these two…they should have kids. 😉

    1. I might have to draw out what their kid would look like. First thought is that their kid would look like Ongo Gablogian from “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia”

    2. He’s pushing 60, she’s maybe 30, more likely less. Chuck is most likely shooting blanks, and besides, he’s talking to her like a baby sister than a love interest.

  2. It is really hard to have a favorite character, as there are so many good ones. But I think Rosa is my favorite. Chuck is a good accomplice in sneaking work, but not much for romance. Uugh.

  3. I mean, if they don’t have at least an inkling of what’s going down, I’m actually disappointed in Clearstream. If anything, I’m starting to wonder if they caught on and realized “Wait, we can use this.”

    Because of course they can. 😉

  4. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    I’m way ahead of you – I’ve been waiting for you to catch up. From November 2020:
    I would hope for nothing less – her and Chuck have the potential for a great deal of positive mischief.
    Speaking of which, I received the email notifying me that my order for the NSFW “Chuck and Rosa Finally Do It” (age verification required) limited edition hardcover is going to be delayed due to the pandemic. I think it’s really cool that you’ll be adding some additional stretch goal goodies when it ships – thanks for all your story and art.
    As for the inscription, ” We owe it all to you ” will be sufficient.

542 – Catching Up

Sophomore stresses…

Well, that’s a load off. As of last Friday we had two days to go for our Volume 2 Kickstarter and although we’d raised a hefty chunk of change, we still were a few hundred dollars short of our goal. It was a far different feeling than our first go-round where we got successfully funded about halfway through the 30 day period and then were just seeing if we could reach our “Secret Stash” stretch goal (which we did at almost the very last minute). Had we fallen short of the stretch goal, no big deal, but this time around we were short of the funding goal, period, and if that didn’t get met then there would be no book. There were several people last time around who never pledged but bought a book after the fact and you wonder if they quite understand that if they don’t kick in on the project there may be no book to buy. That’s about the time when we had been trying not to beg or bother people but I started going through my lists and arguably did just that. Sometimes people don’t have money and/or aren’t interested, but sometimes people just forget, you know? And yeah, some had forgotten. Some pledged in time, some still ended up forgetting until it was too late… BUT… we got funded. And in the end the closing surge funded us with some cushion, though not quite enough to reach the stretch goal this time. If we’d failed, there would have had to be some examination in the wake. Was our timing wrong? Did we not promote enough? Or worst of all, was there just not enough interest and support out there to keep doing these collections? Stressful stuff to consider, thankfully moot. We now shelve this particular stress and move fully on to the stress of preparing for San Diego Comic-Con.
