Alright, since noobs are constantly posting random shit in the MPS Columns section....I, an established veteran, am going to post MPS Column shit in the off-topic section.

Has anyone else read the Combustible Orange comic since they updated the site? I checked it when it they put it back online originally, but it seems there is new content. I started reading from the beginning today (opened the webpage and clikced "First" and just kept going) and I have to say it's great. I read Action Datsun every week, admitting I don't usually get it. Everything is starting to make much more sense after checking the CO webpage again, so I thought I should pimp it out.

Great work, guys!

Same thing here. I just thought that "Action" had fun art, but after going to the site, I had enough back story and a sense of the story and the characters. Now I love the strip.

Yeah, they re-started the Combustible Orange strip but the bad news about that is...we're losing Eric as artist on Datsun. He's gotten too busy with that strip and other work to be able to keep up with both, but I've seen the preliminary work from his replacement on Action, and it looks very cool.

It's also gonna be in color now, too. Eric is still gonna do the lettering, to give it a consistent feel, and will definitely return to the art on Action every now and then, too.

Man, not to put pressure on the new guy, but Eric's artwork was pretty much THE thing that kept me checking out the strip every week. That's not to dog the writing; I just didn't understand it. Don't disappoint! /forums/images/icons/cool.gif

Demolition Christ is awesome. Both Combustible Orange and Action Datsun are great.
