irkWORKS, the Journal Of - April 18th, 2009

Hello, sports fans! I hereby notify my fellow cybercitizens of my imminent return to the internet. I'll be posting comics again, but not at IRKWORKS. New work shall appear at

UltraCrispy.com

("Crispy," as in "Chris P.," as in "me." "Ultra" as in "inferiority complex.")

Things will be a little different over there. Each update, or "issue," will be in the form of a large "wall of images" -- a hodgepodge of comic strips, illustrations, and other visual stimuli. This time around I'm cranking up the experimentation and toning down the self-censorship. I'm not alone, either. Work by others is to be featured as well. Here's a useless preview:

Hey, Crispy, I thought you were trying to get published. Well, Mr. Italics, I'm glad you asked. I find the economy, the ailing book industry, and the even-more-ailing comic book industry a little too daunting for an attempt to get published. Besides, every time I sit down to write the next great American graphic novel, I instead doodle the kind of stuff that belongs at UltraCrispy. So I'll see you over there in a week or so!
