Two years ago I created a certain Festive jumper-wearing maniac.

Last year I did a short, confusing comic about him.

Guess what's happening this year.

That's right, in what WILL be my last worms comic (And I mean it this time), Festive Fred will return. And it will be epic. Well, as epic as my comics get.

And it most definitely wont be 11 pages long.

Unlike last time, I'll be posting the comic in blocks of 5 pages, rather than posting the whole thing at once.

The first pages will be posted when they're done. And they will be done. As this actually is my last comic here I'm putting a bit morre effort into it, so don't expect it to disapear into the ether after a couple of updates.

I'm not saying anything specific, but it may be well worth having a bit of a browse of my old comic site. This one's for everyone who read all my old crap.

SOON.

Yeeeah. Suuure it will... :p ;)

Anyhoo, good to see a return of Fred. And at last, another excuse to read through all the old classics again. Cutlery!

Why is it whenever trax pops back for a visit that he's never the most friendly chap?

Oh man, talk about an anti-climax. It's not even April. Don't tease us like that. Still, that's the best excuse I've seen for "Meh. I can't be bothered to finish this." Lethargy FTW. -EDIT- I've made this bit bright so you don't accidentally read it until you read the comic first.

Still, the drawings are ace, as usual.

Art was great!

I just dont get the joke... :eek:

Methinks someone needs to retake a course in "Dry Humor 101".

ok, I'm not sure whether I should laugh and like you, or cry and hate you.. :p



anyway, if you dare to finish monkeyshine like this :mad:

Or it's because:
a. there is an injoke I don't know of.
b. I haven't read the other Festive Fred comic.
c. There is no humour.

c. There is no humour.there IS humor, and it's largely unrelated to the other festive freds. the joke was rather plain regardless of whether or not you've read the comics.

I can't remember the last time you actually finished a comic. :p

And you haven't told us what happens in that Hedgewig commic you never finished, we need to know dammit!

Was he ever, the friendly type? I suppose he was... once...

Depends what you mean by friendly. He was perfectly amicable in the old TH days I suppose.

"To your left, you will find the emergency forum-blow-up bunker. For the foreseeable future, or until one of us decides to venture into the, well, rest of the forum, this will be where you make all your posts.

Until we blow it up again."

I suppose it was always going to be buggered when Trax was, well, never registered.


Loving the comic. It's like modern art - the way you portray the art towards us in a non-artistic way is simply marvellous.

And like Pilot, I notice a lack of Hedgewic in your comic. I shall now take this as a sign that it is going to be returning, despite all logic.

On the other hand, I shant be expecting the BWA comic. :rolleyes:

The BWA comic was entirely bugered when Traxada destrotyed the BWA itself.

No, we still had a BWA subforum at TH for yonks, and all the old BWA people were there nyway

You could very well have continued it if you'd wanted to.

fine, then I'll blame blinx for never colouring the pages I actually did.

Oh and, http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/48151043/

I'm almost, but not quite, getting the hang of flash.

That's actally quite good, although I have no faith in ever seeing a finished thing.
