Sunrise

Well, I hope nobody was taken in by yesterday’s silliness, which you can view here if you missed it.

As you’ve probably guessed, The Dreyfus is not concerned with exciting adventures in space. It is, like most issues of Sunrise, concerned with people moping around and getting testy. So stay tuned for that thrilling stuff.

This is the second April Fools’ joke I’ve done for Sunrise, the previous one being the Star Trek parody in 2009. (I beat J.J. Abrams’s parody by two months!)

Since this was such a big hit, I’m considering the possibility of some sort of non-canonical crossover novelty issue sometime in the future… it might be fun!

Oh, and for those of you interested in collecting Zarkdom minutiae, the war with the Gress is actually a canonical detail from an yet-unrealized Zirconius script.

For those of you who aren’t reading the blog, be aware that the second chapter of Realm is coming soon. Hopefully it will bring with it some riotous adventure and amusing jokes, but you will just have  to wait and see.

In the meantime, you can see the “trailer” or check out Chapter 1 if you’ve not seen it before.

Well, it’s been another year. Sunrise officially began on February 12th, 2008, when this horrible-looking page was posted to the then-very-rough website I’d set up at the time. (The cover of Issue 1 appears to have been posted the day before, but was actually posted somewhat later, with the date adjusted to ensure correct position in the archive.) Now, some 230 pages later, it seems like a good time to look back and see what I’ve learned from this little experiment.

Continue reading on the main blog, because posting images doesn’t work on here for some reason!

I’m working on converting the Archive page to be more usable, and have added Hamete and Suri to the Dramatis Personae. That is all.

Hello all… at the moment I don’t have any queue on Sunrise, which means that if I can’t keep to the schedule exactly, things will run late. Today’s page is an example of that (as you’ve noticed, it doesn’t exist yet). I do intend to keep to two pages a week as much as I can, but they may or may not post on Tuesday/Friday as usual. Thanks for your patience, and I hope you’re enjoying Issue 8.
