The Great Outdoors: Winding down.

Not much left of this chapter of Templar. Enjoy. And while we're on the subject... a few quick announcements.

The second chapter of Templar won't be coming along right away.

I'm not taking a hiatus or anything, though. After the first chapter closes out this week, immediately following with be a Templar Intermission: A brief break from the storyline that takes place in the city and showcases some of its features, but not any of the main characters. The first Intermission will be about the Sincerists, a Templar subculture.

It'll probably be done in a different style. Probably all-pencil. But who knows. We'll see.

Oh, and another little something to nudge me a few inches further over into dickhead territory: I'm not so sure about the wiki, anymore.

It's not that I don't want to do it. It's just that... well, I'm probably just going to package all that stuff with the first collected volume in print, along with the first chapter and footnotes, and just make you buy it.

Sorry. :)

Good idea, huh? Wish I could say it was mine. (Thanks, Seth!)

By the way, I'm making over the cast page portraits, too. Not the falling ones; the graphite ones. Reagan's was first. The rest'll come later.

Okay, enough outta me already.

However you collect the story in the end, I'll be reading the whole time. I'm really enjoying Templar so far, Spike! Would you ever do the book through lulu.com or comixpress? I've heard great things... However you could probably land a big book deal with it!

Keep it up!

If I am indeed the "Seth" you speak of, then I say YOU'RE WELCOME! Can't wait for the print edition, and for those who haven't seen the cast page portraits, well, the two I saw look Fab-U-Lous!!

Your art is stunning. I will now try to copy it in every way possible. Thank you for your accidental inspiration.

So, uh. Quit your day job, or whatever it is you do when you aren't making templers. The thing is, this comic is very, very good. But your updates are far between, and then when I try to read them, it's not enough information to keep me going. I don't know. Hard to explain. Maybe this will clear it up.

When I first read through the archives i was all "Whooooa!"

Then I started waiting for the updates, and I was all "Uhhh. Cool."

Something like that.

Most strips of this quality only update once per week. You do at least that. When I think of sporadic I think of a strip that updates three times in one week and then takes a month long hiatus.

I'd pay you $10 a month to update every weekday.

I wish everybody would. Then you wouldn't have to work and I wouldn't have to die of anticipation of new Templar updates.
