Wait a second…
That’s not a new character! (Although I suppose the five other coyotes around him are…)
Alright! Another chapter done!
This one was challenging and exciting (at least on my end). I finally got around to revealing Coy (er…Chance), practiced a lot with my art style, dived more into Janice and Ray, and hopefully setup the next chapter to keep the reader on the edge of their seat! Also, fun coincidence, but I ran out of plastic sleeves and paper in my binder exactly on this page. I can obviously buy more paper and sleeves, but I’m beginning to think I should get a new binder…
It turns out 140 pages will fill a one-inch binder up pretty good (and that’s with two papers slipped back-to-back in the same plastic sleeve!) :O
As much as I really, really want to dive right into this next chapter, I’m probably gonna take a short break from MitM (but not too long of a break, because then I’ll never come back to it) 🙁
This next chapter is going to be fairly important (spoilers!) and I really want to do it right. There’s a few other things that needs to get done as well. For one, I need to get Nicolas’s bio finished and added on the cast page (I’m done with his drawing, just need to write the info). Another thing that’s been on the back-burner for far too long is a side written story taking place in the MitM universe that I’d love to finish. And finally, I’m considering actually doing some marketing for MitM (because if you haven’t noticed, the MitM fanbase is kinda small) :\
I don’t have any serious plans, but at least something more than just a tweet whenever I post a page. I might get a banner together that I can use as an ad, and pay to get up on places like FA or the like. Of course, I can’t exactly do an awesome job of spreading the word by myself. So…this is my formal invitation to tell your friends about MitM! Help get the word around that there’s this lame webcomic called Mutt in the Middle that’s not exactly dying, but would truly appreciate the support. ^^
So until I return, stay here.
Like literally.
Never leave this page.
NEVER.

I think your comic timing is interesting… you seem to be influenced by a couple different sources, but am I wrong in thinking one of those sources might be a little bit of Monty Python? There is also a lot of slapstick humor that made me smile, but I kind of imagined it delivered in a Abbott and Costello or Laurel and Hardy way.There are times I want to smack my big brother with a staff and get away with it.
I am impressed with the story so far, and I hope that your break is relaxing. Looking forward to the next steps in the journey.
Thanks for the feedback ^^
You seem to figure me out pretty good xD
I definitely pull from a large variety of influences, but Python humor ranks pretty high on that list. I can see the other two comedy duo’s style in there as well; especially how Hardy would pause to have that moment when he would realize just what Laurel did before angrily clonking him on the head.
Thanks! I hope to be back at it at least by sometime in July.
