I like the albums of the year. It's one of my favourite bits. I'm happy he is still doing it.

I like the albums of the year too but looking through the archives he seems to have gotten the years wrong on a few albums.

Yeah is it me or does Achewood actually suck now? There are still some really solid turns of phrase in individual panels but it feels like Onstad just isn't trying to write stories anymore. I get the impression his heart isn't in it anymore?
It is cool if you quit making comics Chris Onstad, as long as you do something else, and do it well.

Ok, Erin flitted in and back out and now BM sucks again.

Suck is farther than I would go, but I wouldn't dispute that the sporadic updates are hurting the comic. It doesn't help that he set such a high standard for himself either. After all, there was a time when I'd check constantly because there was always the chance he might go on a tear like the time he cranked out Ebay Platinum Reserve immediately followed up by the Scientific Dong Study in what I think was a month or two. These days you might get two proper strips and a flow chart in a given week. Perhaps he should look into doing something else for a while. He's certainly wringed enough stories out of the Achewood cast that I could hardly blame him for feeling a bit painted in these days.
