@brokenfingers @thefishcrow Yeah, that's fair. There are also various free comic hosting sites? Or you could probably use squarespace or wordpress or something to put together a decent site. :/

@kingkoronov Just wait, they'll show up. Maybe post about the things that interest you, if you want to hurry things along. XD
What a tragedy. So much potential, lost. Y'all should really read this article, it's fascinating, if a little sad. :/
