I’ve decided on something.

Instead of doing updates every MWF and every other Sunday, I’m going to do something else.

On the weeks where a Super Sunday Double is scheduled, I’ll only be updating twice. And these two times (gasp!) will be on Tuesday and Thursday, instead of M, W, or F.

This is partly because I just moved back to school and haven’t had time to do today’s strip yet, and partly because of concerns that with doing 4 comics one week and 3 the next week and 4 the next week again, that I’m going to burn out and start to lack in the idea department. And that’s not something I want to do. I’ve decided it’s best for EHB to do this, and so I’m going to.

Just wanted to let you know.

Also, if you’re not sure what schedule it is in a given week, just keep checking back Or go by the Super Sunday Double - if I’ve done one, then the following week will be MWF. Then TRS.

The important thing is there’s still 3 a week. Cool.

Also, I want to take a second to talk about the fifty-thousand people that saw my Belly Button comic, all (basically) via StumbleUpon. Out of those fifty-thousand, it’s rational to assume that four or five have decided to follow Empty Headbox. It’s a rational assumption. That strip alone got 8 positive reviews and 3 negatives…and one of the negatives (”Another reminder of why I hate 90% of web comics.”) was from a guy who’d previously rated several hundred webcomics negatively, saying,  “I wish I could burn all the webcomics out there. Except xkcd.” He obviously has very…refined…tastes.

Of the positives, there was, “….”

No, you know what? I’m not going to repost any of the positives. That’s lame. I’m lame for thinking about doing that. Instead, the rest of the negatives:

“HILARIOUS. -.-”

and

“Caps lock does not equal yelling.” (He has a point. It equals typing.)

****

P.S. I do not dislike XKCD. I just, you know, am aware of the fact that it’s the “hip” or “trendy” comic to read. Kind of like how Dinosaur Comics were a year ago. I just don’t think other comics should be put down because they’re not like XKCD in that some of us have to be funny AND draw something. Nowadays, webcomics are for intellectuals, not for artists. Or people who like to laugh.

Stumble it!
