The Ice Storm Is Upon Us!

What started as a bit of a freak snow event has turned much more sleety and dangerous. The forecast was for less than an inch of snow, but our street is at 3+ inches now and tree branches are breaking everywhere as ice builds up. I doubt our power will last the night.

No need for alarm, we’re well-stocked in coffee and ink, as usual.

Tomorrows comic might be delayed. Codex is drawing frantically. I’m handling dinner, and have the generator prepped. If you see “Rust: Raised” go up at the usual time, you should assume everything went well.

If not… well, don’t send the Donner Party our way. We’ll have enough to contend with!

The Extra Frame Christmas+

Plus a programming note. It’s Christmas week, and a bit of a weird one. Christmas only lands on Wednesday every few years. We’ll be running our Christmas card on Christmas day (we’re just getting them in the mail *today*), Friday we have a special “extra comic” and Monday we’ll be doing our annual New Year’s Day comic. The one with the tombstones.

Our story should resume on January 3, but we aren’t making any promises. Inspiration might strike for a “Welcome to 2020” comic instead…

In the meantime, enjoy the holiday!
