All BDers who add me on Facebook run the risk of appearing in the Downer.

Don't I know it. I have been in The Downer a lot of times since Hookbill and I became Facebook friends in 2008 or 2009 (or whenever it was). Whenever there is a Downs meetup and there are pictures on FB because of it, Hookbill will milk it for a month. He is relentless.

Now back to your regularly scheduled Phalian.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien, you can look back though the...

VOLUME 1 | VOLUME 2 | VOLUME 3 | VOLUME 4

Animation update: it's going well and should be done before the moot, hopefully. Legate, is your brother still willing to do the music? If so we can send a rough cut to him for scoring some time soon, if he's still up for it.
Post-pilot, we're thinking of doing some shorter animations. Perhaps some Volume 1 style quick fire jokes, or whatever. These shouldn't take as long or require as much intense work and will hopefully get the wheels greased enough for us to tackle a bigger series later on. I'll probably take suggestions, too. That way we can improve the whole process and get the main series ready at a higher quality.
Hopefully...

Special thanks to the phantom for the second story with all it's goodness and niceness and high-fiveness!!

So, next week is the special, spectacular, 300th edition of The Downer!! I hope you're all as excited as I am panicked!! If you have stories or things you'd like to be in it, let me know some time this week and I'll do what I can.

Fortunately for us fancy types, I was able to jump ahead into fiction and the future to compare those two fine gentlemens' makeup products.

I submit to you the results and will let you decide which you like best.

I will be launching a men's fragrance series soon, it is in the final development stages, right now under the working title "Beef it up"

In other news:

Rune's Quality Beef is contemplating a more active branding strategy, due to greediness this campaign will probably be highly unoriginal and followed by several lawsuits. The company is thinking along the lines of using model photos of Gollum and/or a drowsy badger, accompanied by a catchy slogan, preferably in German...

Although nothing has been decided yet, the preferred slogans are said to be:

Das Lard
Lard We Can
Yes We Lard
Wir Leben Lard
Katzenjammer Für Die Welt
So Ein Ding Muss Ich Auch Haben
The Custard People Are Attacking!
