Sam and Fuzzy Q & A: New Site Edition
Got a question you want answered? Just drop me an email with "Q & A" in the subject line!

"Hi Sam! Love your comic, been reading it since 2006. You've managed to create a very large cast of memorable characters through the years. Have you considered doing a Cast Page for people that are new to the comic, or as a way to provide additional information that the comic may not address directly?" -Santiago

At this point, there have been so many characters in Sam and Fuzzy over the years -- even limited to "major" characters from each of the three series, you're still looking at a few dozen -- I think a single cast page wouldn't quite cut it.


What I'd like to do is something more akin to a wiki... an online encyclopedia of Sam and Fuzzy with a short article for each character, organization and major location. Then, underneath each strip, links to any articles tagged as being relevant to that strip would appear, should you need a reminder of who are what anyone or anything in that strip is.

The infrastructure for the comic tagging and below-strip links was actually built into the new site's archive system already, so that we can integrate this feature into the site in the future! I hope to start working on it once I'm done this particularly dense glut of April and May conventions.


"I was doing some archive reading and came across strip #1082, where Hazel enters a 10-digit number on a keypad.  Since I'm a fan of making pretty much everything I do a subtle reference to something (and it seems that you do too sometimes), I was wondering if that number held any actual significance." - Jared

No! It's totally meaningless. What a missed opportunity! I'm not sure what I was thinking.

For those who don't already know, the other two strips Jared mentioned contain the Sonic 2 level select password and the death year of Robert Boyle.

"So in this strip we learn that the vote for whether or not to investigate Hazel is tied, with Sam voting no, Fuzzy's switching his seat's vote to yes, and the vampire chair abstaining due to their rep being mind wiped.  What is the voting split now that the vampire chair is filled and Fuzzy is missing?" - Tom


The vote, if they held it again, would now be no! It would actually be no even if Fuzzy was still present. Lord Varney (the new holder of the vampire seat) doesn't think much of Mr. Sin or any of his causes, Hazel-hunting included.

That's a wrap for this week! See you on Monday, team.

Camosun College Comics Conference

Residents of Victoria, BC! This Sunday, I'll be a guest at the second annual Camosun College Comics Conference!

The event is open to the public and free to attend. In addition to hearing me and other creators natter on about comics, you can also check out an artist alley full of local talent and their wares. (I'll be in there, too, with a few copies of the Omnibus in tow if you'd like to buy one!) If you're going to be in town, swing on by! It should be a lot of fun.

Back home


We've returned from Emerald City! Thanks again, Seattle, for another great show. We'll see you again next year!


And on that note, time to unpack... and then repack! This weekend, I'm off to Victoria, to give a talk about comic's to some students at Camosun College. One of you may even be reading this right now.


Our next comic arrives on Wednesday. See you then!
