There’s a brand-new “Commentary” category that I’ve been slowly adding comics to! So far it has all the commentaries from the Year One eBook, and I am slowly adding more as I work my way through the rest of the archives. The actual reason I’m working my way through every comic in the archives is kinda boring, but if you want to know, I’ll write it below. The takeaway message from this post is that I’m writing more commentaries all the time, and you can find them in the Commentary category if you’re interested!

Okay so the real reason I’m digging in the archives is this: Back when I migrated this site from the free WordPress blog it used to be on, there were two heinous side effects that I’ve never really addressed until now. One was that all the alt-texts got screwed up, with many random question marks thrown in and certain portions of them occasionally omitted altogether.

The other thing is that all of the images are still, for whatever reason, being hot-linked from the old site. So if WordPress ever decides to shut my old blog down (and I’m kinda surprised they haven’t, for lack of attention) then everything before ’09 vanishes instantly. The good news is that the files actually got copied over, so they’re all on the new server already and I just need to change the links. And even if they weren’t, I have backups of course.

Anyway it all just needs doing, so I’m slowly picking my way through and writing commentary things when I get inspired to do so. And now you know…the rest of the story!
