Welcome to ZAPCOMIC.COM
Well, here we are. New website. You like? I like.
Welcome everyone coming in from the old site. Have a look around and don’t forget to change your bookmarks and subscribe to the new RSS feed.
Why the move? Well, I had been sitting on the zapcomic.com domain for a couple of years. I snagged it after it finally became available and I always wanted to move the comic to it, but it didn’t seem sensible to uproot everything for no reason. Then the Keenspot Kerfuffle happened and since we would be leaving their servers and needing to install some kind of new archive system, I figured why not just make the move all at once. New, better domain name with a new and better archive system. And that’s how all of this happened.
Hopefully everything goes smoothly today. The beta testing last week gave me a sense of how the site performs under traffic, but what’s hitting it today should be the real test. Here we go. Good luck, new website.
Birthday for me, Birthday for the site!
I secretly believe that Pascalle waited to launch the new site today because it is my birthday. And my beliefs are rigid and unwavering.
Well, lots of info today from Madam Pink-ington. Should get you theorists grinding out some interesting thoughts. Can’t wait to read them.
In unrelated news, I’ve played Halo 3 ODST now and I don’t know why everyone complained about it. The game was fun to me and the story was interesting and different from the Master Chief stuff. Anyway, I’m thinking about restarting the Halo night again, but only if we get enough feedback from you guys asking that it comes back. Afterall, we all have to get our practice in before Reach comes out!
Words of Wisdom: Pink is the new Blue

If pink is an affront to your particularย sensibilities, we do apologize. If you happen to love the color, then you’re welcome.
But for real, STORY STUFF! What’s up with these Lost Ones, hm?
Survey Time!
It’s that time again! We need 2,000 of you to take our super-short annual demographic survey. We do this every year so we can better connect with advertisers. This sort of thing helps you see ads for cool things like new phones or games instead of stuff like tampons or whatever.
Fear the whatever.
Pinky
Ok, so I’m trying this new posting system for the new site. I hope it comes out okay… thats what she said.
Anyway, we meet a new mysterious naked glowy woman today. What could this mean? I think some of you may be placing the puzzle pieces together. I hope you are enjoying the story so far. If so, let us know. We’d love to hear it. And while you’re at it, why not tell Calle what a great job she did on the new site. I remember when we first started, I did the html and what not, but her knowledge of the intertrons is way past mine now, and has been for awhile. So lets all give a “here here” to Pascalle, creator of the tubes… cause its not a dump truck…

And then Zap! turned into a shoujo manga, with a plethora of sparkly magical girls.

Only now do I realize that I got my minor in Art History just so that I could one day really appreciate this video.
Billy the Squid Sculpt
So, I just got the final sculpt of the Billy the Squid toy and thought I would share it with you. He looks amazing and adorable.
If you want to get one you can prolly still snag the discounted $10 pricetag, but as soon as they go into production that will bump up to $12.
Thanks to everyone who helped me with this toy, giving suggestions, voting for the design and, you know, purchasing it. Getting a toy made was a totally new experience for me and I’m pleased as punch to have it almost under my belt.
I’ll keep you posted on Billy news as it pops up.
Mummy Murder Mystery!
I like my brother. He makes me laugh.
