he meant something good

Also, methinks the author doth protest too much. For not caring you sure say it often and publicly.

Oh... well. Ok then.

In any case, thank you so much for the comic as long as I've been reading! I have enjoyed this unbelieviably while it has gone! Amazing, epic, and hilarious job, Brian! Congratulations!

Once on the forum to directly address the concern and once where other people with the same concern can see it is "often"?

I'm sorry, but I find it ridiculous there's people who, in their words, "refuse to believe" I did what I did. As if it's an unheard of feat to know how a story will end when you start it.

All of those (except the last) were here when I joined. I don't consider them new at all. And the "Marvel Gig" better be some kickass movie or something to make up for . . . essentially . . . doing the unforgivable. Ending 8-bit theater.

That's a shame, because they are all new.

Actually as funny as that might be it's not really a shame in having it turn out that way. The only thing that comes to mind is you must be a sadist around christmas time or any holiday that involves "giving". You're that much of a secret keeper that one can only wonder exactly what to get and it's completely not what they're expecting.

You don't try to destroy the populous with fruitcakes do you on off days?

Of course not. the cake is a (Soon to be censored) lie. He just tries to destroy it with muffins. Or cupcakes. Would cupcakes just be a sub group of muffins? We will need a committee to discuss this pastylogical singularity.

Still Brian, I think what they meant was a new 8-Bit web series. I think you should send the Light Warriors into a new game. But that's just me. Seeing as they are all low leveled, it would be just like starting a new game!

That might sound like a good idea, but after what will be nearly 1300 episodes...do we really need more Light Warriors?

The artists and writers I enjoy most are the ones who know when to quit. Not continue the same story until it's old and warn out. I promise you that if he did make a continuation of this story, it would have lost some of the spark.

I think he is making a smooth and gradual transition to all Robo all the time, which I would have absolutely no problem with. I think 8-bit was really just a stepping stone. A beginning point meant to eventually lead to his novel being published, and now an established comic career. Down the road, long after 8-bit is buried in some archive in some corner of the internet, we'll all still remember it as one of the best. And it will be because he knew when to quit.

None of the have quite the same style of humour as 8-Bit, though. Warbot is a joke on the reader, but in a more depressing and less infuriating way. Not to say it isn't entertaining.
