Ladies and gents, here's your non-early comic. No storyline, haven't had the internet for the brainstorming for the whatever happens next. I already know; this is simply an excuse.
Everything is expected to return to normal tomorrow, with the exception of me moving my brother into his new place. Not that my abscene will be noticed whatsoever.
In other news, which is bad for me and good for everyone else, I'm almost bored of Resident Evil 4, which means productivity will soon go up. In the past two weeks I've beaten it twice, and Professional Mode was a bitch to complete, and my endeavours reaped no rewards from that. I'm done unlocking stuff apparently, so I'm just having one last shits-and-giggles run through it on my godly Normal file. I started playing this morning, and will probably complete the game late tonight. Much fun.
The little something I'm doing for LoL is still in production, and still looking kickass. I think I'm going to not show any more of it to Lang so that he can enjoy about 90% of its glory all at once. We'll see. But you won't. Not until it is finished.
So, I got to play with my new cellphone today. The one that was in the store was on backorder, and it would be rude to take it away from the person who had the last one reserved, so I have to wait a couple of days before I get to take one home. Not that it's a terrible inconvenience. It is still, after all, a week yet until my birthday. That's about it for now.

Well everyone, Gary was busy tonight, so thanks to his brother for editing up a quick guest comic for us.
In other news, Wonderland was fun, got on a bunch of good rides etc. etc. Got my season pass, with my picture on it and everything ^_^. Well, it's been a tiring day, and suffice to say I didn't get much sleep last night (not that I regret it). Later!

Yeah, so this update took awhile. You can blame that on whatever you want, but the fact was the initial
Wednesday, I didn't have the title, and I've been kind of lazy ever since. So here I sit, in computer engineering, updating because I have nothing else to do. And to think that I left my DS at home today. Sucks. It's my last class of the day today, as I'll be heading to some sort of special Season Pass Wonderland thing tonight. Woo! Any fans there that want to say hi, I'll be around the park hitting up all of the real thrill rides. Just watch for blonde hair and the pepsi hat. You'll want to scan a height of about 5'3". Later!

More pointless blather today!
I decided to leave a post while I'm here; currently adding a title to our lovely un-named comic. As I love to overspeculate on things like this, I think I'll just mention now that the next few comics may have a gradual decline in quality. But there is a reason for this: I'm actually working on something for LoL. And it is going to kick ass.
Just finished watching the movie Saw, and though I'm generally indifferent toward most movies, I would actually recommend this one. It is rather entertaining. My brother insisted to quite some extent that I watch it, and I had a feeling that I could abide with no regrets.
Rather than being productive for the all-too-silent audience that we get (which is sadly around a mere 50 people at this point, I believe) I think I will diverge my efforts toward Half Life Two.

I'm posting because it's been awhile since I posted. My brother is currently visiting from Guelph, and when we went to pick him up, we discovered (rather amusedly, I might add) exactly what he has been up to this past month or so since I last conversed with him. It's nice to know that Tuition Fees really get you your money's worth, eh?

I'm sure there will be a few people checking here around 11:30 to see if Saturday's comic will be up early. Well, you're in luck. Um, sort of.
I've been fairly busy with work lately, spending 5 of my 6 free-time hours at work, and today I was busy 'til 7:30 after school. No, I did not anticipate this and do a comic ahead of time. But I refuse to have nothing to show, despite the excuses I have. Unless something happens that I'm away from a flash-capable computer for a half-week or so, expect atleast something. This may very well be the (second) fastest comic I've ever made.
Sure, some people might bitch and moan, saying "You're not keeping up with your work! You are a lazy and bad man!"
But sometimes, people like me just need incentive. It is a damn shame how much money this site makes, in consideration to how many hours Lang and I put into it. Let's just say, I made this site's total-donation-earnings worth of cash yesterday at work. Just before anyone tries to guess, no, I don't have a lame minimum-wage job. I get paid more because I'm...um...me? At any rate, I love my job. Like, the one I get paid to do.

Hey, everybody...for some reason, I thought it was the 13th today, and I'd have another week yet before I had to make today's comic. Because of my mistake, you actually get two comics today. Three if you include the daily Legend of Lang update.
Another Wednesday, another update. Also, another update for LoL as well. For the information of the general public, Legend of Lang updates 8 times a week, 1 per day, and 2 on Saturdays. As a subsidiary of Twinkfish, it counts towards Twinkfish's update schedule, therefore Twinkfish.com updates ten times a week. If another comic updates more than that, I'd like to hear about it. Really, I would. I'm starving for attention here. Later!

Wow, I've been quite busy today.
As Lang stated already, today is the debut and birthdate of LoL, and everything drawn by me to date was done today. Concept sketch, Title Page, Chapter Page, all done tonight, amidst an English Project, Resident Evil 4, and creating not one, but two Wallpaper designs for Misfile dot com. I've never mentioned Misfile before, but it's the greatest manga-style comic I've ever laid eyes on. Yes, that includes Naruto. This guy knows what he's doing.
At any rate, I'm going to go back to snickering at the glory that is LoL.

Well everyone, your complete lack of feedback has given birth to Twinkfish's subsidiary comic, Legend of Lang. Co-written by Lord Garvar and I, and drawn by me (w00t!), it's the greatest thing to hit the web since its acronym. The title page for the first chapter (drawn by Lord Garvar) and the first comic (me!) are both up, so feel free to check them out. And by 'feel free' I mean 'you'd better'. Later!

Alright, it's been awhile since I posted...kinda. At any rate, some updates I did recently include fixing up the links page, and adding the latest donation gift to the donations page. Also, the regular updates. Now, we've had talk of adding a subsidiary button on the navbar, which will be something like lang.twinkfish.com, my own little subdomain for a bunch of comics like that. I can easily turn out one or two of those a day. Please, flood my e-mail inbox with your ideas on this subject, by clicking on my face up there, or e-mailing lang@twinkfish.com. I love getting e-mails.
...I'm so alone...
Later!

Pretty tired, so I'll be brief.
Our plan at the ultimate comic has failed (for now) and we will attempt it at a later date. Physics project is well under way, made a good 80% progress on it, so there's only this or that left to do; 30 minutes remain at best. Spent the night with (other) friends, cruising, etcetera. Us just being drain-on-society, out-of-control young whippersnappers. Sleep now...
Actually, being at the radiant glow of the monitor has restored some of my energy for some reason. And I'm dying to start that New Game Plus in Resident Evil 4.
Oh! Right, your comic. I'm surprised we've been able to keep this stuff up amidst the most hectic time (to date) of our lives. Which reminds me - I've got another project to do, non-school-related, that might benefit our lovely little community of Twinkfish. Well, I don't want to ramble.
This post is thrice as long as I intended it to be.

I are be at school right now. I don't know if we'll get around to a post tonight, may just be a quick comic upload - should I even have a comic to upload. I haven't started one yet, and I'm not going home tonight. School's kept me busy, I guess. Anyway, if we do get the comic done, which is what is planned, it's going to kick ass. So, excellent.
I'm keeping this brief, since I'm currently in Computer Art - the class where I learn how to make Twinkfish comics look better! But yeah, if I get busted, for all I know I'll be ejected from the course. Seeyez!

Morning everyone. Very early morning. In sickness and in health, ye shalt receive your updates, just not necessarily on time. So yeah, I was down for two days with a head cold (or possibly leprosy), but I'm mildly recovered. Enough to go to school, anyways. Had to write an English quiz I'd missed, and although I did go to Room 16 to write my math test, it apparently wasn't ready for me. I guess the feeling's mutual. While I should be working on my English project, or studying for calculus, I'm a last minute kind of guy, so I'll leave that stuff 'til tomorrow. Later!

Content-free post! Until we create some kind of weblog, I'm going to seize the opportunity to rant on our beloved News Page.
So, I have a Calculus major to do tomorrow, and as of yet I have not studied. So that's on the to-do list for tonight. But oh, cruel fate! I thought my RTS-ing would be over with the completion of Starcraft: Brood War, but of course now I'm delving headlong into Warcraft III. Defragged the compy last night, so I can actually play the damn game!
Torn between education and entertainment. I'll have to do both, favouring the latter of course.
I am being beckoned. This will finish later.
Now is later. Time for the finish. I left off with regards to education, and was getting around to changing the subject to my novel, which I have mentioned before.
Well, it has been returned now, so you, the public, can conditionally read it! Details are found here. Suffice to say, it went well. For me, it is now time for WC3 and Calculus. Possibly at the same time.

Well, since Lang is dead right now, it is apparently my obligation to update the site with the comic, but since I'm not nearly as nocturnal as he, coupled with the fact that I want to play Resident Evil tonight, it comes early. I also made another Donation Gift last night, and photoshopped it tonight. It isn't going to be found on the Donations page until Lang is alive again, because I'm just too lazy to figure out the coding, duplicate it, and modify it accordingly.
Oh, that Hex. I don't know why he's so damn popular. I posted a little tidbit about Hex's creation in the forums the other day. Intended to be just a filler character. The only thing I found funny about him was the irony behind his name. But you people want more Hex. It blows my mind. Also, it better bulge my wallet.
In less relevant news, Sange and Catastrophe, whom are currently trying to MSN-rape me out of an update, are the antonym of awesome. Face it guys, I'm better than you. I can post on this page. Can you? No, I'm not quite sure you can. I'll keep my eyes peeled to see if you have anything to say to that.
Oh? I guess not. See all the cooler people later.

A little bothered by the events that were associated with the production of today's comic yesterday. I was tired as all hell at school, the reason for which I have no clue, so my delightful computer made the decision to pull a Compaq on me. I copied an image to the clipboard after completing the last 3 panels (to which I foolishly didn't save during) and the computer had one of its loading attacks. So I let it take the time to load; I didn't want to lose my work. I busted out Chain of Memories.
An hour later, it was still loading something. So I was fed up with it and decided to let the system crash and start the latter half of the comic over again. But it's done now. Comic number twenty-two is in a place where Compaq can't destroy it now...
But, I'm flippin' tired, so I think I'll make night become morning via my subconscious.

Well everyone, it's Wednesday, and as such, the comic has been updated. A big thanks to Nick, twinkfish.com's very first donator! Later everybody!

I really wanted to do more with Wednesday's comic, but even now my fingers are killing me with each movement initiated. Or, at least, the finger that's been buggered up for the past five months. Anyway, I'm tired, understudied for a calculus test, and trying my best not to play Resident Evil when I head off to bed for tonight.
Regarding the comic itself, there was more I wanted to do with it, but I really didn't have the time for an 8-paneller. Not to mention the filter I used for panels 3 and 4. Kind of simple, using one layer atop another, but when I was working with the images in photoshop, the filter looked so cool to work with. You should have been there. It was awesome. I gotta bugger off now, so to those who read the news like good samaritans, this is where it ends.

I was looking at the site today and thinking about what was wrong with the template (the big chunk of space underneath my shorter posts), and I finally came up with the answer. I feel stupid for taking so long to figure it, though. Anyways, that's all fixed up. Also, I forgot to mention in my last post that I am the proud owner of a webcam! So today's update was merely fixing the template's default size, and that's about it. Later!

Hey everybody. I'm back, and this time you can find out where I was on your own. I did all the usual updates (twice), and not much more than that. I haven't checked my e-mail inbox yet, but when I do, I'd better find heaps of letters about my greatness, now that it's easy to e-mail me. Later!
Lord Garvar here. // Posted at 12:02 am \\
A midnight update. How lucky you people are. Despite the shitty drawing found in today's comic, it took me nearly 2 hours to draw. Of course, it doesn't help that Lang saved and sent me his artwork - sorry, his "artwork" - in an unsupported .fla format. I prefer to use Flash 5 for my works and it was saved as an MX document, so I had to draw the thing in MX, which would explain some of the time taken. When he gets back later today, he'll have a bunch of stuff to update, oh yes.

Alright, how's everyone doing? I haven't even started tomorrow's comic yet, but for some reason, I've made a comic for today. I don't know. I guess I'm weird. I'll be busy tonight, suffice to say.
Oh, one last thing. I've made yet anotherWallpaper which can be found in the Downloads section. So atleast there's something for everyone to look at.

Check it out. I'm going into the future to post. It's like a time capsule, only...3 days old. And you thought I posted this today? Well, April Fools. That is my April Fools joke to you. It's redundant in the fact that this news post is being written before the month of April. Anyway, we look spiffy(er) now. It makes me feel all warm inside, like heartburn or something.
At any rate, I'm rambling about nothing, and you're just going to have to put up with it.
I like the automated stretch feature that our template has.
No matter how much useless crap I post, it resizes to fit accordingly.
Isn't it nice?
I think so.
I've wasted enough room on the page testing this feature.

Well, how does everyone like the new posting template? I think I did a pretty good job, and if any of you complain, I'm gonna smack you senseless. Seriously though, any ideas you have to improve it, I'd be glad to hear them. Nice little feature I added (to be used at the discretion of the poster), if you click on my avatar, it'll open a little window where you can e-mail me. Don't advertise by the way, I'm very unstable. If that doesn't work, the e-mail address is lang@twinkfish.com. Later!
