Check out this week’s Brutal Legend-inspired installment of The Nerdy Show.

Also, Dr. Dinosaur? He’s the latest character to receive a gimmicky Twitter account.

And just a reminder that there will be no new content at nuklearpower.com between Oct 27th and Nov 2nd all next week because I will be on the other side of the Earth for the debut of the Italian edition of Atomic Robo. I hope to see if the trains still run on time.

Here’s the deal.

My buddy Mr. John Wood, co-writer for How I Killed Your Master, is writing a print comic! Only problem is, he needs an artist!

And I do mean that’s the only problem. He’s already set up with a publisher. That’s right. This isn’t one of those “Do all the work for me and then maybe we’ll see if it gets published” deals. There’s a publisher and a contract and everything is moving forward. So, he’s looking for a solid artist who can stick to a schedule to get this thing out the door and on the shelves.

It’s a story that takes place in a modern urban setting with street level superheroics. There’s comedy and action, so a light cartoony style is preferred but not 100% necessary.

Send samples to John! Sequential pages are best.

If you want to listen to four idiots playing fourth edition D&D with musical interludes, then click this link. The Nerdy Show is also available through iTunes if that’s your thang. We’ll probably post the second part later this weekend, so check back for that link. You don’t want to miss the thrilling conclusion (spoiler alert: Eldritch Blast rocks). [EDIT OH SHIT LOOKY HERE IT’S PART TWO AS PROMISED]

See Atomic Robo in 3D (it’s after the snake).

If you live in NYC or LA, for the love of all that is right and good in the universe, go see Black Dynamite this weekend.

Still waiting on those last bits of Warbot in Accounting art. If only Zack didn’t hate every last one of you, he’d have finished ages ago.

Yesterday was all kinds of messed up. As in Finally Had Breakfast At 3:30pm messed up. Like I mentioned on The Twitter, one of our cats was sick — Kurt, not Charlie, despite the latter’s diet — so, I spent a good deal of time at the vet and then keeping an eye on the bastard (Kurt, not the vet) once we got home. Long story short, he’s fine! Until the next time this happens!

I know everyone wants to see the next page of 8-bit. Me too! But it’s not in the cards for today. I’ve got to work on stuff with real deadlines like print schedules and ship dates and the kind of crap that’ll cost other people money if I don’t do it. I hope you know how much I appreciate that you guys are able to understand when real life crap gets in the way; and I hope you appreciate how I don’t abuse that.

In the meantime, believe it or not, Zack is about half way done with a new Warbot. We’ll have a new page of How I Killed Your Master tomorrow, and of course 8BT back on track Saturday. Somewhere in there we’ll have the first half of the D&D game we played for this week’s Nerdy Show. It stars a Russian rock golem, a Dragonborn with the voice of Lady Cobra Commander, my Tiefling with the voice of Throat Cancer Cobra Commander, and…a chair that was magically transformed into a mostly-naked dwarf. Regular listeners will know that last one is Mike’s “character”, and you will know that I spent a lot time telling him “No”.

Oh yeah! Forgot to hook up the latest edition of The Nerdy Show! I don’t know what happens when we record those shows, it’s all a hideous blur of noise and tears.

Yesterday was one of those weird days where you wake up as tired as if you’d never gone to sleep. And then I made the mistake of venturing into the smoldering outdoors for a few hours in a car with an AC as strained as the heat sinks in WHM-6L Warhammer going full blast.

That’s for my fellow old school dorks out there. You’re welcome.

Anyway, very exhausting. But today’s comic is done, so hooray!

If you’re into Atomic Robo, then you’ll be interested in the little teaser animation on the other end of this link. You’re welcome!

Y’know, over the years I’ve gotten a few requests for T-shirts with the 8BT sprites on them. Maybe you’re one of those people? I dunno. Anyway…

…you’re welcome for that as well!
