Yes, Last Summer

It's a pain to try to color all the little itty-bitty sections of the strip (like Moe's fingers holding the rug).

Catch Up Part Four

This is getting out of hand...
I finally discovered a way to speed up the shading process!
The last two strips were originally the same strip, but then I figured that I needed to name the theorem/principle. This meant I had to split the strip into two and focus the first on the principle. I'm still not sure what I'm going to officially call it, though...

Six-Zee

The symbol in the traditional "Z" talk bubble is not a 6 – it's actually the Deseret alphabet symbol for the "z" sound.

Phew, Just In Time for the Blog's Sixth Anniversary!

I can't believe the blog has been up and running for six straight years! I've been making the date in the strip on I.W.M.A. Day large and orange ever since I.W.M.A. Day 2009.

We'll be posting updates, poll results, a new poll (I promise), and a list of the updates later today.

Next celebration: 2000 posts!!

Blame It On The Enemonster!

I was thinking about the title of this post, and I figured I'd put it in a strip somehow.

And Now, The Reveals...

Expect to see a new poll today!

No, really.

His Toes Are Clenched In The Last Panel

Originally I was going to have Moerlin's first line be "...gives me a combination Moe/Merlin personality," but I changed it to this because I had since learned what "amalgamation" meant, and I thought it would be interesting if Moerlin referred to both of his personalities in the third person.

And yes, his hind toes are clenched in the last panel.

A Forewarned Double Post

We interrupt this story to bring you another Strip Lib.
Happy I.W.M.A. Day Week!

You know, the week containing IWMA Day.

It Hasn't Been 13 Times

Technically Moe's only really woken up as Moerlin 7 times (I'm counting this and this as the same one now because of this strip and they have a very similar ending); none of the other times were real (they were dreams, movies, thoughts, etc.). But there have been 14 individual Sunday strips about this (not counting those as the same one this time).

I was thinking at first of making his name be some combination of Jocken Fred and Bed Monster (maybe Jocken Bed), but then I figured it could be Enemonster. Maybe that's what I'll call him later.

Who's "You?"

Heiemo's (I'm still working on the spelling, okay?!) line about everyone else sleeping was put in later after consideration.

Okay, Cool It With The Double Posts Already!!

Saturday's strip will also be posted in a double post with Sunday's.

I had to do quite a few sketches of Heidi to get her hair to partially cover up the back fin and neckline correctly.

Best Friends, but their Pets are Worst Enemies

Hey, who vandalized my signature, Moe??????

Originally I was going to have Thidwick be talking, but then I realized that he needed to be thinking because Bob couldn't talk.

Oh, Phew!

Whenever I draw a new Moerlin Transformation strip, I always trace over the previous one, except for the "looking up" panel (the first in the bottom row) and the one(s) after the third one in the last row. So, naturally, there have been some slight changes over the strips, like the doghouse shrinking in width or Moerlin's body getting more squashed and fat in the third panel in the third row.

I've had the idea for this one for quite a while, only because I was waiting for a full moon to occur on a Sunday.

That's Not a Good Wish

The character in the talk bubble is the Chinese character for "snore." I'm really not sure why I decided to do that, but I did.
