The big hiatus

Hey all! The current R&B chapter wraps up today with page 8. Hopefully you like it! Unfortunately that also means it’s time to begin a hiatus. For the next couple months I’ll be focusing on a needed Cranky Octopus website overhaul and various preparations for the new baby (time is flying by! Yikes!).

Angie and I will also both be focusing on our respective comics for a while and building up a backlog of pages. This should be a really good thing in the long run and most likely we’ll be back in the fall, posting regularly again with new stories that are completed and ready to go. In the meantime, Kostmeyer will keep the Cranky goodness alive and well with regular continuing Vigil updates, so be sure to come back every Monday for the ongoing adventures of Vigil as well as some occasional surprises and bonus content from all three of us.

And of course, please enjoy today’s new comic, the final page of “Growing Pains”, it’s Rocket & Bounce, page 8 ! Thanks for reading!

Upcoming hiatus

As some of you already know my wife and I are expecting our first child this June. So not surprisingly my schedule’s going to end up changing quite a bit in the near future. The current R&B chapter is actually going to wrap up probably next week with page 8 (don’t worry, it’ll make sense, lol). After that I’ll be focusing on a needed Cranky Octopus website overhaul and various baby preparations. I’ll also be working on the third Rocket & Bounce storyline and will begin making regular weekly posts again once that story is fully completed.

So, in the meantime enjoy today’s new comic, Rocket & Bounce, page 7! And as always, thanks for reading!

Creator Bio – JD

JD
JD Smith is white and boring. He’s 18 and has been trying to get good at this comic book thing as he finishes up school from his (parent’s) home in Bothell, Washington. He likes Batman more than is probably healthy and wishes people would stop saying he looks like Simon Pegg. He hates cough [...]
