Erika, we love you! You’ve been working your butt off and everyone deserves a day off. Chill out and we’ll be here waiting for you next week. :)

darn my inability to teleport, I would’ve totally gone. (I think I read to many comics sometimes)

Seriously, sometimes you REALLY need to just take a break, even if it ain’t really a break ’cause you’re workin’ your ass off on other things.
There’s no need to apologize, we the readers totally understand and will wait patiently for the next update.

Lest you’ve forgotten, I believe you also got MARRIED just six months ago.
You are riding a golden wave (wang?) of glory, Erika. There is nothing for which to apologize!

It’s fine; we understand. :)

That is surprisingly poignant. Or maybe I’m just projecting…
…I’m so tired.

Dude no worries, just remember alcohol is the solution to and cause of all life’s problems…more often than not it’s just the solution, at least that’s been my experience :P Also, if you ever make it out to Mile High Con, totally hooking you up with some home-brew for your troubles.

Aw, poor Erika. You take as much time as you need dear!
April 21st, 2009 at 8:41 pm

Relax, take a break. Sounds like you need one.

Hey, no need to feel bad about having other stuff to do – rather that than drawing this comic being the only reason you get out of bed in the morning!

*gives Erika a brain massage* Good luck with everything on your schedule! I’m definitely buying the giant sex poster when it’s available in the store. And maybe once things are less busy the interviews will return? *imagines Matt taking over the interviews and interviewing Zombie Erika*

Just spent pretty much the whole day reading this from begining to “end” (o noes my eyes! i can sees forevar!) and what i always love seeing is how an artist evolves their own style and how it changes as time goes by.
Awesome comic and use an old Kiwi saying i know “You can do nothin all day if you start first thing in the morning!” You certainly deserve your do nothing day!

your panel with lucy was great!
i loved meeting both of you and am very excited to see your not so tired post next week.

Good god, a CHILDREN’S BOOK?!!! You’re gonna warp their little minds.
April 25th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
Take your time, I’m sure we all understand how you can just get snowed under sometimes.

Just take your time!
It’s amazing what you’re all handling currently.. *cheer*

Are you illustrating a children’s book for the CORNING MUSEUM OF GLASS? Because that’s the only glass museum I know of and it’s in my hometown …
PS I just found you yesterday and read all your archives :D

Geez, now Matt’s going to have to get a “Golden Wang” tattoo, like that “Golden leg” guy from Shaolin Soccer. lol ah god I luv that movie lol

HOLY. CRAP. I remember when you did that collaboration with Lucy, though I didn’t know who you were back then. I was watching Lucy when she showed it off. Bravo man! You’re totally cool. What a small world we live in.
(Also, since you removed comments on the transmen comic, I thought I would say it here- I think it’s awesome you find us hot. But then again, I’m not really a spokesperson for it or anything .__. )
