Well guys, this is it. If you haven’t been paying attention to the AG Lites recently, I’ll be going away for a while. I’m taking a trip to Bangladesh with my mom to visit the family. It has been about 4 to 5 years since we last visited. So going back now will be fun and exciting. I’ll be flying out tomorrow and will return Jan 22.

Not to worry, AG is in good hands while I’m gone. I created a month worth of AG Lites in advance and they’re in the system. So you’ll be getting the lites as scheduled. As for the big comic, Yuko is taking some time from her busy schedule to update the comic. Keep in mind she is very busy with her own work, so she will be updating once a week. She is very talented and I know she’ll do an awesome job with the comics.

I think that’s pretty much it. I want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and happy new year. Be safe. I will see you next year.

The latest comic is up, guys! Once again, guest artist Yuko Ota is filling in. Poor Jayce … it’s tough to be macho in an apron.

I’m back from a vacation to visit Yuko’s folks in New Jersey. We went into the city and picked up a few things at Book Off, like Jeff Smith’s Shazam!, which turned out to be a surprisingly good read. Jeff Smith is like a surgeon when it comes to exposing the little kid in you - two panels and there it is. We also dropped in on the Geeknights guys, where we played 8-player Bomberman (this was awesome).

I’m writing up revisions on the first proof of the book! It’s looking great and things are moving suspiciously smoothly. Preorders are still open (hit the banner over on the right if you’re interested).

It’s a new year! Applegeeks has been running for a while now, and over that span of time I’ve left a lot of plot threads open. Is there anything you’d particularly like to see? I’ve got a dozen directions I could steer us in, and I need help deciding. ;) Since Hawk isn’t here, I’m curious to hear what you girls and guys have to say.
