#99: New Viewing Habits

” It could be worse, the badger could want to watch MTV…”

Alright folks, the good news is we’re about to hit comic 100! Woot!

The bad news?

Comic 100 will best the last BoE comic for the moment. Alicia, who has been awesome to work with and has done a great job, is just too overloaded with college assignments to continue the comic. So with the end of chapter 3 we will have to pause the story.

In the meantime, I will continue to write the next chapter in the hope that either Alicia can come back after a break or if I can find a suitable artist replacement.

But if not, we both would like to thank all of our readers for being so warm and enthusiastic, it’s been a real joy to do this comic.

Thanks and see you at Comic 100!

Jay

    Dagnabbit! This comic’s one my favorites, and now you’re going to pause it! How will we, your loyal readers and fans, survive!?

  3. Wildhorse

    There are a few different webcomics I find entertaining enough to even keep current on but this one genuinely makes me laugh out loud. Sad to see it put on pause hope it comes back soon

    I could think of worse shows for badgers to get addicted to.
    Namely most television NOT japanimation. Those Japanese know what they’re doing!

    Just wanted to say that I’m a loyal reader of BOE. I really like the comic, it keeps me laughing all the time. I love online comics, and this is definitely one of my favorite. I tell all my friends about this constantly.

    Sad to see it paused, but I totally understand. School is hard! Keep up the good work, can’t wait till it gets off of paused.

    Love & Blessings,
    Aushy

    Maybe I could be your replacement artist… Except that I have my own projects that I’ve been putting off, and the style of this comic would just change markedly. Oh well…

    I hope it all works out. I like this comic.

    aww, you just introduced a pet badger, and leave us hanging?

    Well, congratulations on 100 comics! Hurry back!

    and one more thing… seriously, I love this comic.

    Are you sure this isn’t a girl badger???
    Congrats on making it to your first big milestone. Here’s hoping I can keep reading you for a long time to come! *raised water bottle for toast*

    I sure hope the pause is temporary. This is definitely one of my favorites. Anytime I want a happy-boost I pull up that really wonderful story arc from the anime con:, e.g., http://www.boecomic.com/?p=197

    This comic will be missed, but I’ll keep it in my bookmarks and keep checking up on you guys.

    Thanks Andrew! Kyle, well there are other excellent comics out there such as The Battle of Dovecote Crest, and of course Pointe-East for example. =)

  14. Jay the Writer/Admin

    Corbin, well if I can find a suitable replacement artist then I would love to continue the comic. The odds of Alicia’s college load getting lighter anytime soon is pretty slim, but that is the other hope. =)

    Take your time and see you at #100. I know there will be one.

  16. Rantress

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *gasp* OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Great job reaching 100, but….. XP I hope BOE comes back soon. I love this comic.
