Big Party Saga

Six is not forgotten, but forthcoming. In the meantime, we're going ahead and releasing S.H.S.H. Issue 7 ("Party") now.

"Party" is a story derived partially from some of the original brainstorming which created S.H.S.H., but is also a tale which I knew had to be told once the ball was actually out and rolling. Incredulously, originally, I thought its eventual epic nature could be contained in a single issue, which quickly turned out to be false (it will span 4 issues, all told). The production process was pretty grueling, because in order for the story to be truly completed, I had to first write ALL four of the issues in their totality before I could do anything fun, like do covers or panel art. But even then, doing the covers and panels for issues consecutively can be equally hectic and draining.

From an autobiographically standpoint, when I was first living in co-op housing, the first few parties we threw were, uh, sparsely attended, to say the least. And there is truly nothing sadder than waking up and finding (way) over half a keg sitting in your kitchen. Like the 'mates, we found a solution to our problem, and future parties were more suitably populated.

We've also updated the way a few things look here at the site, too. Yes, we know a few of the links on the top-menu bar don't work, and just cycle back to this page, but that won't last for long. The S.H.S.H. Main Index page has also been rearranged so the back-issues can be browsed a bit easier.
