As close to Halloween as we could drag it out . . . the conclusion of “One Chilly October Day.”

This is officially both the longest and the first completed storyline this comic has ever done. The last two times storylines were attempted, things got mucked up and they had to be called off. No longer!

Now that this arc has been completed, what did you guys think? Did you enjoy the continuity? Is this something we should attempt to do once in awhile? Leave a comment on the blog or e-mail at goodintheorycomic@gmail.com, we’d like to hear from you! (At least I would.)

With the frenzy of putting the new site up, I completely, completely forgot to mention the news that I was saving until the launch. You may or may not have noticed the eyeball icon in the site header with the words “Eyeskream Member” beneath it. You also may or may not have let your curiosity get the best of you, and with eyes aglow with wonder, clicked the link. If you did, you would have been transported to the site of the Eyeskream Webcomic Creators Group.

A few months ago, whilst trapped in the monotonous labyrinth of the hospital, I was scouring the Internet for the usual thing I search for when I am bored: people who are willing to compensate me for drawing silly pictures. Long story short, I located a posting by Eyeskream Manager, Erik Bouchard, wanting someone to draw a monthly webcomic about the Eyeskream mascot, named “Skreamie,” and said artist would be compensated with free webhosting and a domain name.

That was good enough for me! Now I draw artwork for the site, as well as the comic, which has yet to launch the first issue. (You can actually see a tiny, unreadable version of it in the background of this comic.)

Here’s a drawing that I did when the site returned from, “vacation.”

I was attracted to the small yet friendly community of webcomickers, and put the comic up for possible membership. It was voted in, and now “Good in Theory” is officially part of Eyeskream!

Also, there is a banner at the bottom of the page that cycles through the different comics that are currently active at Eyeskream. I am in the process of reading them all (there are a lot of comics), and so far I have made it through three of them. I highly recommend you check out Strange Fiction (strong language), The Flying Ferret (a funny superhero comic, start at the beginning), and Future Pig (it’s about a pig, get this, in the future!). I’m still working my way through the others, and I will be sure to make a mention of them as I go through their archives.

If you are into comics, or just fonts in general, you might consider checking out Blambot’s Halloween Scavenger Hunt Sale. If you find the coupon code on their site (it’s really not too tough to find) you will get 50% of their Pro Fonts. I bought two new sound effect fonts, both of which you can see in this week’s comic. It’s a great deal on some awesome fonts, so pop on over there. It only goes from October 24-31 so you don’t have that much time left!

I was pleasantly surprised when I read the Penny Arcade blog yesterday, as I had no idea that Penny Arcade Adventures: The Rain Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode Two comes out today! Woo! I know what I’ll be playing over the next few days!

This has been a pretty “newsy” post, hopefully you’re still awake. Joel should have something for you on Friday (more of his childhood writings) and if you missed it, you can read Noah’s post about how he played so much Far Cry 2 over the weekend that it basically made him trip balls.

Oh yeah, and new Poop in Bed on Friday. Here’s a link to the last one in case you missed it, or are just too lazy to scroll down and look at it.

Have a good one.
