Nick says: Tim, you liar!
Update, Tuesday June 9: there's good news and there's bad news. Bad news first: there will be no update today. My excuse is that I spent all of yesterday participating in this year's
Comikaze challenge. The idea is to write and draw a complete comic in 24 hours. Since I'm a wimp, I competed in the 8-page category this year. If you'd like to read my entry, you can go
here. At least at the start of the challenge, it was entitled
The 43rd Glorious War For Independence Waged Against The Dastardly Mulberanians By The Glorious Royal Gravonvillian Combined Armed Forces. It changed throughout.
Once you've read my comic, have a browse through the rest of the forum and read all the other entries. Lots of talented artists and writers there! That's the good news, by the way: in the absence of a Space-Time Machine strip today, you get heaps of other cool stuff to read instead!
