Oh snap, things are like, starting to come together?! That’s crazy!

Looks like the logo is getting in the holiday spirit – if you’re not quite there yet why not try some sweet 8-bit Christmas tunes! Or go watch the Octopus Pie Animated Christmas Special!

Also, if you haven’t already, please vote for The House Always Wins over at Zuda (you’ve got ’til Christmas Eve!)! Josh and John have done some awesome work that needs your attention.

Though Nomad Tofu started appearing on the web in April ‘09, I actually started working on the strips one year ago today.  There’s a lot of to be proud of and a lot I’ve learned this past year.  I think you can look back at the span of these 70+ pages and see the progress I’ve made.  Of course, there’s still much progress to be made, but hey, for me it’s a year in and I’m still fighting the good fight.  ALLONS-Y*!

*You might be a nerd (or uh, French) if you know what that means.

First off, as you might’a noticed, the site has been spruced up a bit. A lot of it was under-the-hood stuff and minor tweaks, but I’m finally pretty happy with how the site looks and runs. The New Readers section has also been updated – a few FAQ questions have been adjusted and the Character bios have been redone/expanded (and no longer open in a new screen!). Check them out for extra insight into the world of Nomad Tofu!

Okay, now the super exciting news!

Longtime pal and all-around fantastic guy Josh Hechinger, along with the very talented John Bivens, have entered DC Comics’ ZUDA competition! If they win the boys will land a paying comics gig with, ya’ know, DC *EXPLETIVE* Comics!(!!) But they need your help to do it! If you haven’t signed up with ZUDA before you’ll need to register, then on the right hand side of their comic you can give ‘em FIVE STARS (which it’s worthy of anyway), FAVORITE them, and finally VOTE for them!!

Because the holidays are coming up the contest ends DECEMBER 24th,  so get over there and vote.  And then tell your friends to vote.  Help a dude out – especially these dudes, because they’re awesome and so is their story (believe me, it needs to be told in full!)  VOTE!!

*I know, I knooOoOoOw

Yay, a new comic! This page went through a war but it’s finally finished and we can move on. I’ve talked about it on the Nomad Tofu twitter account, as you may or may not know. I’ll be talking more about it later, and even more so when the next page goes up.

Also, I love that second panel… just sayin’

Maybe Marthos is a nice nutter… maybe… *snicker*

Click to go to @nomadtofu new twitter account!

Nomad Tofu officially has a twitter account! It is special and filled with goodies just for you! Keep track of updates via the up-to-the-minute RSS, get behind the scenes goodness, frequent updates of where the current update is at, as well as personal thoughts on webcomic-e things! It started a good week ago and already has a handful of tweets posted, including a random sketchbook page and the pencils for the Barbra Fail Whale you see above. You can find us via twitter at @nomadtofu , or just click the picture! (There’s also a new desktop wallpaper in the extras section too!)

I’m still working on how I’m setting up the twitter accounts on the site (I will still be tweeting on the @harrymylandIV account as well). I may be adding a new link section for ‘em in the top bar, along with a greater amount of sweet webcomcs and other neat stuff. We’ll see.

In other news, ads will start appearing on the site shortly. Not many, one will go up right next to the logo on the top of the page, one will go on the right hand side. Nothing major and it’s for no real reason, just a change, I guess.

Think that’s it, thanks for reading!

Hey look, a new page! Writing this one was like wrestling a bear for some reason. No, I know why actually. This was a “cross-roads” strip, where I could take the story in one direction I had mapped out, or another last-minute, better direction that took some extra planning. It’s gonna be pretty great though, I think, anyway.

See ya’ soon!

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Hey, look at the super fat new teenager characters that aren’t at all a commentary on today’s youth (…they actually aren’t, but saying tongue-in-cheek sarcastic things tend to give folks the impression that you’re “deep” or whatever.)

Hey folks, here’s a new page for you!

I’m aware that this one should’a went up Friday, but I was taking an internet sabbatical last week and thought I had set a bunch of strips up in the archive, but I didn’t “Publish” them, so, my bad.

“Today’s” page will go up tomorrow, and then we resume as “normal”.

Have a good day!
