Josh-
Thanks for question and I appreciate the kind words.

The Thrill-Seekers storyline will be wrapping very soon, but I’m already looking at self-publishing a collection of this story arc. I’ve narrowed it down to about two printers, at this point. I’ve had to do a little more research, because the format will be a little unusual and not the standard comic/graphic novel or magazine format. My intention is to print one strip per page, so the book will be longer than it is tall, but with the introduction and behind the scenes stuff I want to add, it should clock in at a nice 72-80 pages.

Congrats, man! This is an amazing comic strip and all the accolades are greatly deserved. Are you collecting this thing in a trade format eventually? Also, love the sound effects. It’s been too long since most comics embraced fun in the format!

RBynum-
I’m having more fun with the sound effects than I thought I would. In recent years, there’s been a trend in comics not to use them in an attempt to make comics more “cinematic.” Now, here I am doing a comic based on a cinematic genre and I decide to embrace sound effects. I’m ever the contrarian…

Mistah Pete-
Right on!

Seoul-
Much appreciated. It’s been an intense year with WORLD OF HURT, and this was a great way to cap it.

Mr. Patton-
Thank you. I’ve been looking forward to the upcoming violence for quite some time. However, I may still have a couple moments that folks won’t see coming.
(Oh, I was going for a k-bar.)
Ramon-
I was kinda thinking of changing my header. Hmmmmm.

A’Omare-
My fiancee has been having a lot of fun with the “swimsuit issues.” Too much fun…

Jay Kelley-
That would have been immodest, so I requested James Brown’s “The Boss,” instead.

Scott Salsman-
Thanks! When I accepted the one for “Best Male Character,” I made a point to mention the readers’ feedback for helping me shape Pastor’s attitude and personality. So thanks to all of you guys.

“dollar” BILL-
Thanks! Also that give me the perfect oppurtunity to shamelessly plug my Unsung BMF entry last month for The Spook Who Sat By The Door http://worldofhurtonline.com/tag/the-spook-who-sat-by-the-door/ . I’m not too sure how many people saw it when I ran it.

I think “award winning” needs to be somewhere in that header…

Is that a K-bar or a Bowie knife in Pastor’s hand?
Either way, its about to become a Slaughtertime on the Yacht!

and, Congratulations on your awards, Jay.

Well deserved and earned.
