If enough of you vote, I might go back to the regular style.

Just when you may have thought the art style couldn't get much worse.

Though honestly, this might be bad timing for this joke, considering we recently had a storyline full of new art that I was largely pleased with. I'll admit it could have been better, but I do think I've improved quite a bit since I started Com'c almost two years ago. (Alright, so I'd have improved even more by now if I'd done every str'p by hand, but I'd also probably be at str'p #90 or so.)

The beanstalk storyline taught me something I sort of already knew: In some ways, it is easier to write a storyline than a gag-a-day format because you generally know where to go next and ideas start flowing in. I actually started the storyline because I was struggling with writer's block. Now I'm having a slightly different type of writer's block, in that I have plenty of ideas, but they are all continuations of threads from the storyline in some way, and I don't really want to do that just yet.
