It has been over three months as a hiatus, so the first strip back is a brief recap of where we left off. We appreciate your patience, the time off was most needed. In case you are not familiar with our comic production methods, we produce the comic in Adobe Illustrator on a Mac computer. Unfortunately, our production Mac aged out and was no longer able to be updated with the most current versions of the Apple operating system. Which ultimately meant that all of our other production software could not be updated either. So we have had to acquire a new Mac ( Imac 27 ) and additionally a new Cintiq Pro 24 drawing display. Moving from over 12 years on a system to all new equipment and software is , to say the least, challenging. We aren’t totally comfortable that everything is working correctly yet which is why we are boring you with this TMI explanation.
