Recently Abby has been working on a new project with the Roller Grrrls team, the adorable Lil Rollers! The Facebook page will be updated with artwork three times a week so if you’re a roller derby fan or just like cute things (or both!) make sure to follow the site!

We’re a bit excited about Mass Effect 3 coming out next month, and today Bioware released their first trailer featuring the female version of Commander Shepard. I love lady Shep so started doing a quick sketch for fun and ended up with this.

I just *really* like Mass Effect!

This is our pal Brentalfloss, singer of songs, haver of times. He performs comedy games-based songs, you might have seen his “What if [old game]… had lyrics?” videos. If you haven’t, you ought to. But why am I going on about him here? Well, over at brentalfloss.com, in among the songs, he also has an ongoing webcomic, and we did guest art for it this week. Read it here!

And that’s it. Another story about Charlie and Gumbo is currently being worked-out, and you’ll be seeing more of them soon, but our mad little festive m80 already has some stories of his own. The most immediately-rewarding place to find him is in the following Youtube playlist:

If you’ve got some tidying, washing-up, drawing, lying around or otherwise auditorily unexciting tasks to do over the next several minutes, please allow this great little story into your ears while you do it. Yeah, you’re probably feeling decidedly post-Christmas now, and yes, this starts off as a sort of book-on-tape about Santa Claus. But, before long, our little nobbly pal starts to interfere with the story and it all goes to pot. It’s a full-cast* Dumpy Little audio comedy drama we produced last December, and you’ll like it, honestly. At the very least you’ll enjoy the villain getting more and more villainesque as it goes on.

Our nobbly little wooden guy has gone down rather well with those who have been following his adventures. Look at this wonderful thing someone made:

So! Thanks for reading. If your Christmas tree is still up, it is now officially time to take it down. You’ve been reading our first exploration of the technicalities behind getting a webcomic to display as a webcomic, and we’d like to thank you for that, which we will be doing in the form of further comics before very long at all. Remember to follow us on RSS, Twitter, or whatever your particular thing happens to be.

*Well, by that I mean… well, you’ll see.

This is precisely how Christmas works, I’ve done my research.

They’ve been followed.

This kid shows up every Christmas for one reason or another.

It really wasn’t Santa after all.
