The Return of Brain Comics
After almost ten years, Brain Comics has returned!
What's changing? Probably not a lot.
The original comic ran for about five and a half years from 2006-2012, with regular updates for most of that time. To stave off the risk of RSI, and to free up my attention for other creative works, I ended the comic at that time.
Over the years since then, I added two additional bonus strips, commemorating the discovery of the Higgs boson and the first controlled landing of a rocket first stage after launch.
Flash forward to 2025. I no longer want a comic about SpaceX on the front page of my old webcomic.
I think every web cartoonist is at least a little scared of their archives. The longer you keep at it, the worse your old stuff looks. Virtually every mistake I ever made with Brain Comics is in those archives. But there's a lot of stuff I still like, too, and I think it's worth keeping up.
In any event, I couldn't let Brain Comics end on the strip it did. So return to it I must.
