Hey Mike!

2005-05-27T00:22:00.000-07:00

Another day comes with a new update, but alas, the update came late in the afternoon. It was good though that most of the people who visited got to see the new comic. One person went through the archives.
But, how do you know that?
Oh I know many things, and one of them is to get the right hit counter :P
No, really. Did you see the look in Roy's face when he woke up? Man, it looked as if he was really drunk. Many people may ask, why on earth did he faint over coffee in the first place? Well, that has a scientific reason, Roy's weird. Actually, that behaviour is modeled after the person Roy is derived from. Coffee actually makes him drowsy, weird, huh? To me, well, it just makes me hyper. Not Kyle hyper though.
It just hit me... I haven't introduced those two characters officially, and come to think of it, Joseph's name is only known to the readers of the blog. I should make that right... It will have to be in another strip.

Don't forget to read the comic, now at heymike.spiderspawn.com.

There will soon be goodies (drawings and flash) available in a new to be section, so check often!

2005-05-19T20:29:00.000-07:00

Now Mike has it's own personal home at:

http://heymike.spiderspawn.com

All the comics are there to view with a user-friendlier navigation, as well as other pages. If the game is ever completed it will probably be there.

The blog will not die, but the new comics will only be available via the new site.

Go visit, don't forget to vote, and most important of all: ENJOY!

Yet another taste of the future. A deep insight by our resident furry character.

2005-05-15T12:15:00.000-07:00

That game sounds kind of fun. I wouldn't recommend it though, it is too much caffeine.

I can't believe it took so long for me to learn about those Star Wars fans making line with so much time ahead. I really don't know what to say. Well, first of all, I know I wouln'd do that. Specially for that movie. The other two didn't come close to expectations, given the success of the old three.
Well, to each their own, right? If you want to make a month, week, or day long queue go ahead. The only thing I say to those in front of the Chinese Theatre is:
Next time make sure it's the right theatre.

2005-05-12T17:33:00.000-07:00

WOW!
Did the world just get smaller, I got bigger or what!? The comic is bigger, and ... yeeeeah I think you can actually read it better this way, no?

That guy to the right is a friend of Mike. (But what's his name? Don't you know you have to introduce new characters?) Yeah, yeah, I know. Tomorrow you will know who it is.

2005-05-09T23:36:00.000-07:00

Please, nobody who read yerterday's strip can say they didn't see this coming.

Fernando is back. I have to admit that my good friend did tell me he was going to be unavailable this time. Considering that I draw this on a day to day basis, I could very well be said it was my fault. At least it stayed in color and very few people noted the difference without been told. (Actually, I think nobody actually noticed) Well, anyway, the schedule is kept constant and the quality too, that's what matters.

2005-05-08T00:05:00.000-07:00

Just imagine, imagine the first thing that comes to mind with a scale train, a constantly hyper kid and what is the first thing they will "play" with the new toy.

As some of you may see, for the few that actually see the comic, the color for today's strip was not arranged by Fernando as he's gone AWOL. I'll make a point to find 'im and give 'im a piece of fan-mind.

2005-05-05T17:42:00.000-07:00

It could have been worse? Yeah right.

2005-05-03T17:13:00.000-07:00

"What goes around, comes around"

2005-05-01T14:28:00.000-07:00

Fire in the hole! Take cover!

The pet rulez series continues. Perhaps it would be wiser of the conney to make all the rules at once (as if that would make any difference), but then again, that would be no fun. For us.

2005-04-27T22:04:00.000-07:00

There's just so much Kyle anyone can take, but with new "toy" this time can be found to be greatly shortened.

Have you seen the MikeClock at the bottom of the list to the right? If you'd like to have it, just e-mail me for it and I will send it ASAP (as soon as poultry). More gadgets are to come as they ind their way in the crevasses of my mind. Any suggestions are more than welcome (although I don't promise anything).
By the way, the game is close to completion. All the programming is finished and now only drawings are left (too bad that's the slowest part in the process (the way I do it at least) ).

2005-04-25T23:28:00.000-07:00

Rules, rules, rules. Rules are made to be broken, and if you can't break the rules, you break the bunny in a Nelson.

2005-04-24T20:21:00.000-07:00

Yes, the bunny's back, back again. If you want to understand better you could read past strips in the archives.
We are currently trying out a webservice for comics at heymike.keenspace.com. If everything goes well we might pack up and stay there, only time will tell.

2005-04-21T19:17:00.000-07:00

Spider-sense much? Somethings coming this way. It's furry, it's cuddly, and it lays...eggs?

2005-04-19T11:45:00.000-07:00

Oh yes, spring, with its lovely weather, beautiful blooming flowers. Untimely showers.

For the first time ever you can see the comic in fernicolor, thanks to the new colorist and good friend of mine.

2005-04-16T16:43:00.000-07:00

It's study time and everyone has their own personal system.
By the way that is the correct answer.

2005-04-13T19:49:00.000-07:00

Apparently there seems to be someone with Kyle-o-phobia.

2005-04-10T20:59:00.000-07:00

Hello Joseph! Just come in, you know you don't need no invitation, eh?

2005-04-07T21:11:00.000-07:00

Yes, yes, yes. The rabbit is back, and the new found gun-mania of Kyle ma spice things up a bit.

2005-04-06T17:48:00.000-07:00

Yes indeed, it is exam time and not only Mike here has problems finding a quiet place.

Back at it again

2005-04-02T20:48:00.000-08:00

Sorry 'bout not updating lately, but the final-project-presentation season was on and it consumed much time. But now I'm back at it again.
The rabbit may come back. But he has a game to beat before that. The game should be ready and available by next Sunday, so come back then.
You can enjoy the first two FULLY functional levels now.
I just hope the exam season doesn't have that much impact (yeah right).

2005-03-27T21:08:00.000-08:00

The bunny's gone? On easter sunday? Now that's a coincidence, a very peculiar coincidence.

2005-03-25T11:17:00.000-08:00

Ready, Set, Go!
First one to the closet gets closet privileges.

2005-03-25T00:22:00.000-08:00

Although it is not evident from the beginning, Mike is not wearing his sweatshirt because it is in the closet. Hence his great intent to get through the bunny.
An updated version of the game can be found here:
Game
Please don't judge it just by its preliminar version.

2005-03-23T22:50:00.000-08:00

The easter season continues. There is a game on the theme under development by yours truly which will probably come out in a couple of weeks. Yeah, I know, a little late. It won't be that big though, but I'll let you, all of my three or four fans, decide.

2005-03-22T23:18:00.000-08:00

I hope all the possible reasons for kicking out the rabbit came from Kyle's imagination. However...

2005-03-21T20:21:00.000-08:00

Yes, stuff them all in the closet. Nobody will ever find them there...

2005-03-20T22:53:00.000-08:00

That's not supposed to happen...is it? Well, that sure looks like an EASTER EGG to me. Touch it if you don't believe me.

2005-03-20T00:58:00.000-08:00

And the hunt begins.
It will be difficult trying to escape Kyle to attend to more *ahem* 'important' business.

2005-03-18T23:37:00.000-08:00

Scouting the backyard Kyle encounters a little rabbit. He holds it, and strokes it, and will probably call him George.

2005-03-17T23:56:00.000-08:00

This was a close call timewise. Almost didn't get the strip out on time. Not that many people would mind though.
This strip in particular is dedicated to JosÃ© Trejo for his 19th birthday on march 12. Happy birthday PP. Espero que te la hayas pasado bien.
PS. The guy out the door is a plumber in case you were wondering.

2005-03-16T18:16:00.000-08:00

Have you ever flushed a toy? Well if you did I'm sure you didn't go in an epic quest to get it back, right? Maybe Kyle & Mike will. You'll have to check tomorrow to find out!

2005-03-15T18:19:00.000-08:00

Introducing Roy, Mike's true hearted, supporting friend. When Mike takes a job in a chicken restaurant Roy's there to make the experience more enjoyable (for himself).

2005-03-14T14:44:00.000-08:00

Ever had your dog eat your homework? If yes I doubt that you encourage it by covering it with gravy, right? Of course, if you had ants instead of a dog, you would cover your homework with a different appetizer.

Hey Mike!

2005-03-13T21:19:00.000-08:00

A strip continued from the one from yesterday. You have to take care of your pets, and if they're ants that means that if you don't feed them they'll find their food somewhere else.

2005-03-12T18:17:00.000-08:00

Introducing Mike's lil' bro' Kyle. Apparently he bought an ant farm (Probably through the internet) and it doesn't appear to be much of a thrill.

March 11, 2005 Blown with the wind

2005-03-11T18:15:00.000-08:00

And the leaves are still a pain, even as spring approaches. Mike has to pile 'em up but the wind has a different idea.

2005-02-08T20:27:00.000-08:00

This is the first posting of the heyMike blog.
