…ish.

• I’m not dead yet.
• I am working on a new comic, ETA TBA.
• I do feel bad for not updating but I figured out I’d better update when I have something worth showing or, as is the case now, when I have something worth telling you.

Mackenzie Daughter (originally posted on 2011-02-04)

What I wanted to share with you now is (almost) totally unrelated to anything on this site. You see, one of my favourite Nintendo DS games has just been ported to iOS. Touch Detective is available now in Apple’s app store, and I want to link this game for various reasons; it’s a good game and it deserves the exposure, it’s a game that I think you might enjoy, and finally I hope the game does well enough to warrant the porting of the sequel and (dare I dream?) the creation of further chapters of the saga.

As for why I recommend this game to you, dear readers: it has an offbeat sense of humour and it features a bizarre world that you get to explore as you try to unravel the mysteries you are presented with. And although most of it is just wacky funny stuff (and there’s plenty of that), it also manages to pull at the heartstrings on occasion. In other words: if you enjoyed Imaginary Daughter, there is a rather good chance you will like Touch Detective as well.

Also the first chapter is free so just go ahead and give it a shot.

Disclaimer: I get 10% of sales made through that link. Haha, no, I wish. I’m just a fanboy hoping to convert others into fanboyism as well

All done. Once again, thank you for reading (*bows*), and I hope to find you again when my next comic goes up (*).

I’d be remiss not to mention that you can now get the printed version of Imaginary Daughter for the lowhefty price of $19.50 plus s+h. In the book you get everything that’s been posted here, plus a couple of illustrations, plus a bonus one-page comic, plus a 10-page “commentary track” by Father and Daughter that will have you Rolling On The Floor Laughing, or so I’ve heard.

I’ve also heard it makes an excellent [insert holiday] gift, so why risk it? Buy a bunch and spread the love around!

…hey, if I’m gonna sell out, better be shameless about it

(*) Whenever that might be, though hopefully in the next few weeks *fingers crossed*

And thus endeth Imaginary Daughter, as confusing as it ever was. Come back tomorrow for an epilogue (of sorts)!

We’re almost home.

The end is nigh! This is the final week of ID reposts

Well look who’s back!

The moment you’ve been waiting for since page 37.

Page #82 is one of the saddest of the whole story; also one of my favourites.

Goodbye, Daughter!

Father is ready.

To answer a question that I’ve been asked several times, the specific dates on the graves don’t mean anything special. They just help figure out what happened, specially when considered alongside this.

Alright, enough bloody textwalls!

…darkness…

…because people like lots of text with their comics?

Ah, these pages were a lot of fun to do.
