    Cow-Man: Week 87
    A little late, but here it is. The next part of the Cow-Man saga, setting things up for the final batch of strips. Not much else to say, except this was foreshadowed in previous Cow-Man strips. Have you been following along?  Stay tuned for a fun adventure!

    Cow-Man - Week 87 Delay
    I had a quickie Cow-Man set for today...and then photoshop crashed about 3 steps before I usually save. So the bad news is no Cow-Man for the majority of today, but the good news is that now I can do the Cow-Man strip I actually wanted to do, although a little later than usual.

    No Cow-Man This Week
    Cow-Man has never missed a week in 86 weeks. There have been plenty of emergencies in that time frame, but nothing that could keep me from posting. Until tonight. My family's dog, Ashley, who has been with us for the past decade, had to be put down tonight. She was an amazing dog, super affectionate, cute and always came to greet anybody that walked in. My family has had numerous dogs in the past, but it wasn't until Ashley that I finally understood what it truly meant for a dog to be part of the family. She will be greatly missed.

    Cow-Man will return next week.

    Cow-Man: Week 86
    First off, Happy Thanksgiving to all the great folks out there that still read Cow-Man! The humor of this week's comic relies heavily on the idea that the human embodiment of goodwill is dressed like a major tool. What actually happened in the story will be very important to Cow-Man very soon.

    So the other news is that I've picked a date to end Cow-Man, just a few months away. Got to finally wrap up the main story idea I started oh so long ago. It's gonna get pretty good I think.

    Cow-Man: Week 84
    Miraculously, this went up on time. The blog got delayed a few hours, but the comic was up. This is a strip I wanted to tell for a while. I know it could have been better if I had more time to work on it, but time is at a premium right now. Oh well. Better luck next week!

    Cow-Man: Week 83
    Another week of Cow-Man. Another morning update. So much going on, not all good. My girlfriend (Hi Lauren!) asked why I don't just take this week off. It would have been nice, considering it was pretty tough to come up with something funny in my current mindset. But lo and behold, I came up with something and up it went. I don't like the idea of skipping a week. Sometimes the weeks may not be great, but there's always weekly content here at Cow-Man. I can always say that and I wear it like a badge of honor. Cow-Man is among my proudest accomplishments, to have gotten this far with it. If I do switch to a bi-weekly status, it's going to hurt, a lot. We'll see what happens.

    Cow-Man: Week 82
    82 weeks of Cow-Man. 18 more strips till the ultimate 100th Cow-Man!

    I was all set to go with the strip I had planned for last week, when at the last minute I realized it was Halloween on Friday, so here's a special Halloween Cow-Man. I like how this one came out. Always fun to see the Cow-Man cast get dressed up as other characters.

    And as far as other announcements go, Cow-Man may be moving to a bi-weekly status very soon, as in every other week. It's getting to be a bit much, doing Cow-Man, my other comic at http://www.FW4D.com and all the other projects I'm working on to make my apartment look nice. And now I've got another project coming soon that may land the crushing blow. I'm not sure at this point. I'll have to see what feels right. Maybe if I do simple 3-panel strips of Cow-Man he can remain weekly, or if I just do black and white. Any comments would be appreciated.

    Thanks for reading!

    Cow-ManL Week 81
    Tonight's strip was supposed to be better, but I ran out of time to finish it, so this went up instead. Next week should be pretty funny though.

    Cow-Man: Week 80
    Yay! 80 Weeks and I celebrate by running later than I usually am. Well, after so many weeks of Wednesday night posts, I think I get a pass on a Thursday morning post. I had to work last night, which caused the delay. In any case, Cow-Man-Bot! What do you think? Should he be rebuilt? I'm not sure yet. I like the concept. Always loved it when the robot Ninja Turtle would make an appearance on that cartoon years ago. We shall see.

    Thanks for reading!

    Cow-Man: Week 79
    79 weeks of this? Nonstop? Never missing a week. That is bananas. Anyways, here's a simple strip. My mom gave me the Shrimp Toast idea a while ago, I've just been waiting for a way to work in the joke. So here you go, courtesy of my mom.

    Cow-Man: Week 78
    I've been sick for about a week and a half. I'm just now getting better, but yeah, this is the kind of comic you get when I'm sick and don't want to do a comic. Eh, I think it's cute. Not horrible. That's always lovely when you describe your comic as "not horrible". Yeah, I'm really filling a niche that people are searching for here, lol.

    Cow-Man: Week 77
    I had 2 other ideas for this week's comic, but the art wasn't really working for them, and I'm getting over a cold, so the effort I was willing to put in was diminished. So a third idea I was kicking around got moved up. I like it. I think this is one of the better Cow-Man strips in terms of humor.

    In other news, my other site, http://www.FW4D.com is doing quite well. Up to 62 strips already over there. Just a matter of time before it passes Cow-Man in sheer number of strips, but that was pretty much guarenteed by the 3 per week scheduale. Check it out for some extra laughs!

    As always, thanks to my loyal readers who keep coming back, week after week. You are not many, but you are loyal and greatly appreciated by me.

    Cow-Man: Week 76
    Yeah, for some reason I just had Oompa Loompas on my mind, so this is the comic we get. All new art for this strip, which is something of an occasion when it's not toast related new artwork. Super tired now, gotta sleep. Enjoy!

    Cow-Man 75!
    Ok, so it may not really seam like it, but this is an important strip, for the 75th week of Cow-Man. If you've been keeping track, Zombie Toast has the Toast Scepter, Strawberry Bombshell has the Strawberry Scepter, Cow-Man is in possession of the Cheddar Scepter, and Anti-Cow-Man gave us a glimpse of a Meat Scepter from an alternate dimension. Can you see where this is headed? Ah, but I won't be diving into that right away.

    Thanks for sticking with Cow-Man for 75 weeks of fun!

    Cow-Man: Week 74
    I think next week I will finally be able to finish the Toast Powers storyline. Just in time for #75! It will have significance for a bigger story down the road. That's all for now, see you next week!

    Cow-Man 73
    I was so close to skipping this week's comic. I was just going to go to bed and not worry about it this week. But I can't seem to break the continuous streak. Oh well. Here's an intermission comic, a break from the current storyline. I kinda like how it came out, although it's all just existing (but modified) art. Sometimes the simple ones...yada yada.

    I will be at the CGS Super Show coming up in slightly over a week. I'll be walking around, the guy that looks like Cyber Hackinator up there in panel 3. If you don't know what the CGS Super Show is, then this message doesn't really apply, lol. It's a celebration/comic convention type of thing being put on by the awesome folks at the Comic Geek Speak podcast. The website is http://www.comicgeekspeak.com/ in case you want to check it out.

    Thanks for reading!

    Cow-Man: Week 72
    I realize this isn't one of my better strips, but this week I was seriously thinking about just putting up some kind of intermission sign and skipped a regular comic. I have no energy left, I am super drained. It's a bummer because I really enjoy doing these types of strips, but today I just didn't have the time or strength to do something better. But at least it is a comic and it does move the story along a bit. So considering what it could have been, it came out pretty good.

    And if it's not funny enough for you, check out http://www.FW4D.com for a few laughs!

    Thanks for reading!

    Cow-Man: Week 71
    Week 71 is up and the story continues! The epic saga to give Zombie Toast powers! Oh yes, it will be epic, and it will be saga-ish. Here's something I have not been using much of lately, panel reuse! I've been getting away from that, although this looked like it would work, so I went for it. In any case, here's the next chapter, and it will continue on next week!

    In other news, in case you missed it, Cow-Man switched servers! See the post right before this one for all the yummy details. I don't know why I consider those details yummy, but I do, and I'm not going to hide it.

    And in case you are among those people that like Cow-Man but could never get into the art style of my other comic http://www.FW4D.com, then I have good news! I've changed the art style! I've modified the way I draw each strip, so each one has a little more visual impact! Check it out!

    And in the meantime, thanks for reading Cow-Man!

    You Got Served!
    In case you logged on to Cow-Man early this morning, you might have been redirected to my other comic, http://www.FW4D.com. This was not intentional, just a little mix-up caused by me having to go to sleep and not being able to check on progress throughout the night. You see, Cow-Man has just changed servers, and is now being hosted by the same people that host my other comic. Last night I changed the name servers, and this morning I had to change the redirect.

    So what does this mean to Cow-Man? Quite a few things, actually! First off, I will no longer be paying yahoo a bunch of money a month to host Cow-Man. That's the best part. But also, now Cow-Man no longer has to have a masked address. A masked address? What's that you ask? That makes it look like Cow-Man.com is the host address, when in fact, it was not. Cow-Man.com was being hosted by my customizing site, a site I have not updated in years, but still gets a bunch of hits. So now you can roam around Cow-Man and see the actual addresses in your browser address bar. Neato! But it gets a LOT better than that. One of the problems of a redirected page, is that that stat-tracker gets confused as to where your hits are coming from. So my tracking software was always under the impression that hits were coming just from that customizing site. Now I will have a much better idea who's actually visiting Cow-Man, and from where. That will be very nice.

    If you spot any bugs, please let me know. I think I worked everything out though. Now go and enjoy the NEW Cow-Man.com, and by new, I mean exactly the same as it was.
