  1. Amusing spam above … Things are about to get weird with Casa De Chuck!

    1. Ugh, I try to get to the SPAM quicker but we have a new kitty and I have been distracted. It is gone now. 😀

  2. New kitty tops spam any day … and I enjoy getting to see it in it’s brief lifespan.

536 – Great State Of Tech Sass

Welcome to Team Paranoid, Oscar! Spoiler alert: they really are out to getcha!

Next comic page planned for Nov. 20th. In the meantime, please accept this documentary evidence of new kitten Morgoth as he discovers the enigma that is the empty soda box.

Kickstarting the kickstarter…

If you’ve been paying attention to our occasional murmurings here and elsewhere, you’ll know that 2019 marks the tenth anniversary of Zombie Ranch, and that one of the events we intend to commemorate that is bundling Episodes/Issues 8-15 into a long-awaited Volume 2 collection. I mean, I presume it’s at least somewhat awaited since there are a handful of folk who have been bugging us about it almost since the first one went to print! But we need money for it again, so it has become time to put together a new Kickstarter and see just how many of our fanbase new and old are willing to put their wallets where their mouths are. Figuratively speaking. Please don’t swallow your wallets. That’s when I go back over our files and records from 2015 (the last time we went through this) and try to remember what we did that worked and what we did that didn’t. Also how much did we do pre-launch, how much during, and how much once we knew we were funded (and also on the hook for our “secret stash” stretch goal)? A lot can change in four years, for instance the shipping costs that every crowdfunding effort ignores or underestimates to their peril. Beyond that there’s been noticeable inflation across the board, or at least I can’t really think of any aspect of printing and such that’s gone down in price. And that sweet deal you scored back then may have been from a company or person that’s no longer around. On this, at least, I can report the good news that the same gentleman I worked with to get Volume 1 printed back then is still alive, kicking and ready to roll so long as we can get the moolah together. More costly than before? Sadly yes, but still a really good deal and one that isn’t subject to the possibility of tariff fluctuations since they’re within the U.S. So that’s sorted, at least. Now for everything else…
