So....Rex and I had a chat about the future of this page. He sat there cross armed and scratching his chin while I pretty much do all the work (as usual).
This is how it will move forward from November 2020.
The unfortunate reality of this pandemic is the fact cross border travel and large scale events are still severely curtailed, and likely until the effects of the virus on society dies down, or an effective vaccine can be developed (that's another discussion in itself). We've known since April we would not be able to go to any conventions and therefore we've delayed the production of Rex Regrets Volume 3. We're mostly self funded/run and our day job was (and still is) impacted by the poor economy. I won't say how bad, lol, but we can't possibly set aside money now to make a product that has no place to sell to. We could do online, but that still depends on a lot of factors that....to be fair, feels like a lot of work for a 1 man 1 dinosaur shop. And Rex is useless at packing. Having said that, it also means most merch plans will be on hold too. In fact we're aware the problems with the T-Shirts that were sent out with the Kickstarter (from 2 years ago now) and we'll be looking into new suppliers before we start doing anything again.
We've also been pretty laid back with new comics. Honestly its been 7 years of Rex and its starting to feel a lot like work. I hate work.
Rex and I have gone on an extended break and recently we both feel we're ready to be back. After the passing of our good friend and supporter Matthew, and more recently re-hearing about TOYSREVIL's brush with stroke 10 years ago, we feel that to abruptly sign off at Volume 3 is doing a disservice to the friendships we've forged with Rex. So we're gonna try and return to the normal schedule in November and we'll try to keep to the schedule.
Folks who've been following on here will also notice since May we've been running this live drawing stream CB draws. It is a partnership between A Good Citizen, Muffinsaurs and us. We feel its time to move it onto its own platform since Citizen Dan and Muffinsaurs both are gonna likely start ramping it up again on their end too. So if you've been a fan of CB draws, its not going away, just headed to a different page. We hope you'll follow us there, but do be warned, the content can be a bit crass (blame Citizen Dan) and focused on Singaporean/Southeast Asian perspectives.
With that being said, Rex and I will also start a new dinosaur drawing stream in November. Since we have no idea what we're doing (as usual) we will start small and work our confidence up.
All in all, thank you guys for continuing to support Rex. We're a bit rusty. Rex will need to do his stretches again to contort himself into those compromising situations. Hopefully you'll find the upcoming content still fresh and fun.
PS, he's still sitting there thinking.
