I’m sure you will make him very welcome with the comic as he writes our characters into all sorts of mischeif and mayhem.

Because of this, the site looks like ass. I’ve put a ticket in with dreamhost to see if they can revert to an older backup, and if that is the case we will be going back to the future doc brown style.

If not… I will have to build the template from scratch again and that will be a huge pain!

UPDATE
####
It took me all day to restore the theme, but we’re back. I’m terribly sorry though because I sacrificed my drawing time to get the site back up and running. This means that I will have to draw Mondays strip tomorrow night after work, along with Wednesdays strip. So yes, tomorrow there will be 2 updates. One for Monday and one for Wednesday, which will bring us back to schedule.

Apologies again for the delay, but now with that over and done with, you can get excited for more comics. I’ll be drawing some new material from a writer who could become the storyteller to helm Ticket to Ride into the future. So far, I’ve read good things.

It’s been 6 months and things have really settled down here. This is great news!

Unfortunately this great news does come laced with bad. We have lost our writer in the 6 months we’ve been on hiatus, so I’m currently looking for new talent. I’ve had a few offers so hopefully the production pipe should be primed and pumping out new material very soon. I will keep you informed on the progress.

I’ll do some fun, no story-line comics on Wednesday and Friday, simply because I miss drawing the characters, but I’m hoping to have some narrative in production in the next week or two.

So what has been happening in these last 6 months that has kept me from drawing? This is an interesting question, let me give you a run down:

• Graduated university and started my career in web-design.
• Attended to Supanova Melbourne and Perth.
• Traveled to the states for Comic-con (WHICH WAS AWESOME!).

Thanks for the patience to all the readers who have checked in over the months.

Look, if you are checking in, I will bring you something to look at when I can. I may not have time to do a 3 a week webcomic schedule, but I am working on the comicbook for ticket to ride still. Worst case scenario, I will post the pages online here as they are created.

If you would like notification, so you don’t have to keep checking the website, feel free to add me as a friend on twitter or facebook. I will send notifications through there anytime I update.

My new job is great though, I really do love it. I’m working as a Web Designer in Perth city (Australia). I’ve just done my first month at the office.

I thought I would keep you in the loop. Ali and I are experiencing a few delays with the comic due to a few things that are really exciting for us, but not so much for you.

Ali recently started a new job as a Radio morning show host. She is on air from 6am – 10am doing the breakfast show. With the early starts and taking care of her family, she only has night times to write scripts.

And then there’s me. I’ve just started a new job this week doing Web design.

So apologies for the delays, but there should be new comics from this week onwards. I have had a side project holding me up and that will be done with this week, allowing me to resume the drawing.

Wednesday or Friday we should hopefully be back up and running. See you then

I have added an about page to the website. This will be updated as the comic progresses. Soon we’ll add profiles for Liz and Skyla, even some of the sub characters, such as hobo-bob.

I have created a topic for you all to talk in; regarding what other content you would like to see on the website. If you aren’t already following us on facebook, what better time to become a fan and have a say.

We’d love to hear from you

Here are some of the character sketches I used to come up with the characters in Ticket to Ride. Some have not been introduced yet, so look out for them in strips to come.

 It is a great combination of a brother and sister’s powers combined to produce this fresh and funny idea!!!

Tell your friends to get on board!!

welcome!

I hope you enjoy the beginnings of Ticket to Ride. We update every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Sam Raimi had been pushing for a vulture villain, to be played by John Malkovich, which I could get behind, if the story that went along with it wasn’t generic as tripe. Not to be a hypothetical movie spoiler here or anything but the narrative was set to go something like this:

“Peter Parker gets over MJ, finds a new girl, falls in love. But: Peter also discovers her father is actually the Vulture, a naughty green guy with wings to be played by John Malkovich. Peter is torn between the love of his new lady and taking down the Vulture. Being a Spandex tight-ass, he decides to take down the Vulture, and kills him. This patricide goes down poorly with Peter’s new fiancee, and she rejects him. Despondent, Peter decides to abandon his superpowers, and Movie No. 4 ends with Peter Parker throwing away his Spider-Man mask, and audiences wondering if they are watching Superman II.“

I know I certainly don’t want to watch the series through again. What was wrong with spider-man 1 and 2? Not much! This bothers me. This bothers me greatly.
