-News for Wednesday, January 18, 2006
Just a quick note here. First of all, thanks for all the words of support (don't forget to post on the forum!). It really means a lot to me. Secondly, a very kind reader (thanks André!) pointed out to me that some of the archival comics have been messed up due to the new design, mainly the black background. Some of my oldest comics were saved with white transparent, evidently, and the black shows through. It's kind of annoying, but at least it only effects the comics I never want to look at again as long as I live! I might try to fix the problem, or I might just remove those comics entirely, I'm not sure yet. If anybody finds any other problems with the site, don't hesitate to let me know. We're still working out the kinks here at Blank Label Comics.
Also: link buttons and other stuff coming soon. And did I mention we update on Mondays? That seems kind of important. We update on Mondays.

Welcome to "Krazy Larry: Sanitarium". That's right, we is back... again. But things are a little different, as you may have noticed. New site design, new strip format, new updating schedule, and perhaps most importantly, newly independent. But with all these new things flying around, "Krazy Larry: Sanitarium" is actually delving back into something old: Larry's origin story.
Over the last five years, I've tried to tell this story in the comic strip, but I was never really happy with it. It always felt stilted, rushed, cheated. I figured if I was going to finish this thing, I wanted to do it right. So that's what I'm doing. We're starting over from the very beginning, re-telling the tale of how Larry Osbourne go to be such a tool the way I always wanted to. We will now update every Monday with a double-sized full-color strip. "But wait!", you might say, "I already KNOW most of this story!' Oh, you foolish, foolish man and/or woman. Don't you know that when somebody re-tells a story, they always add to it? Change things around, shake it up, you know the drill. Revisionist history. This time around you'll still be seeing some familiar faces, but you'll also be seeing some new ones. I'm pretty excited about it, honestly.
So, for those of you familiar with Krazy Larry, I hope you'll stop here regularly to fill in the backstory of your favorite stitch-headed, straitjacket-clad malcontent. For you new guys, we're starting from the very beginning here. There's nothing you'll need to know to understand these strips, so as far as you're concerned, this here is a brand-spanking new webcomic. I hope you like it.
Stay tuned for more here in the next few days. Still trying to work the kinks out from the Keenspot move and we're all pretty busy. ALSO! Ugly Hill. Go read it. Thanks :)
