All change.

Hello there! This is the new layout! Hope you like it, I may be adjust a few things here and there (like get the comic navigation buttons working), but this is pretty much it. As you can see I'm going to have covers for each storyline now, to the right you'll notice a thumbnail for the cover of the current storyline. As always, keep checking back to see what I've added and email me if you run into any problems with the site.

Edit: Navigation buttons are working, also set the links to the Life Sucks Facebook page and my DeviantArt account. Say hi sometime!

Nearly there.

The comic update is going along smoothly, should be all set to be up and running by the 12th. I've got a couple of pages inked so far, I want to stay ahead of the updates this time, so I'm not rushing to do a comic the night before. I'm also completely reworking the website. Keep checking back every now and again, I'll be adding a few new things to the site before the comic starts back up again.

The return.

Hey guys! So... fwuh...yeah. Sorry... you know, for disappearing. How many times have I said this before? I know many times. I was honestly thinking about never doing the comic again, ever. I was just getting so fed up with it, I just stopped. I hated every page I was drawing, hated the stories, all of it. Once I decided I probably won't go back to it, I started remembering about all the work I put into it, the characters I'd created, the world they lived in... it was wierd.

The last few months I've had Mack, Leo, Barker and Kitty nearly constantly at the back of my mind, I never realised how attached I had gotten to these characters, they were my creations, my children. I couldn't just abandon them, they needed to live! Remember all the good times we had? Remember when Barker first moved in? When Mack first met Kitty? Or when Leo had that accident with the coffee machine? Yes, I couldn't just stand by and let these characters die, they must go on.

I must warn you though, in order to turn Life Sucks into something I want to do, something I feel I will enjoy carrying on with, it will be different. The comic will no longer be divided into 'episodes' where each individual comic formed one episode, it will be separated into pages! Just like a real comic book! This means that some pages won't be as self contained as they used to. Story arcs will last longer, in some cases up to 20 pages. I'm writing this comic more like a book rather than a webcomic as I want to develop the characters a bit more than I used to. Some people may feel as though this will cause stories to drag on, if you feel like that, I don't mean to be rude, but tough, this is my webcomic and I have to do it in a way that I'm happy with.

Anyway... I hope you like it, If you have any questions, comment here or send me an email at my new email address! Also, I'll slowly be updating the site before the return, so feel free to check back every now and again!
