New False Positive digital comics need new covers.
I added fresh paint to some existing art in addition to generating a new illustration for the covers of upcoming digital collections. I'll let you know when the new releases hit the digital streets.
False Positive is going on webcomic hiatus.
Tentatively, I plan to announce updates regarding more FP around October 2018. It would be awesome to commit to more specific targets now, but I'm not ready for that yet.
Top of my list, I need to take a break from working on False Positive. Easier said than done. That's because my brain never stops working on the stories. I've spent many sleep deprived nights with the brain worm of a story demanding my attention.
Also, presumedly after some manner of a break, I need some time to plot and scheme about where to steer FP in the future.
Currently on the False Positive brainstorming list during the webcomic hiatus:
- Update the design of the website
- The website begs for an overhaul. Perhaps something can be done about that.
- Research printing a book/ crowdfunding the printing of a book
- Between you and me, I'd love to launch a Kickstarter in October for a "best-of" volume of FP.
- Complete the preliminary work on a bunch more stories
- So many plot outlines, so little time. Scripts need to be authored. Breakdowns need to be sketched out. The sequence of stories needs to be nailed down...
- Reconsider everything
- It's time to think about the entire endeavor and how it might evolve. Nothing's off the table.
In the meanwhile, for whatever value it may or may not hold, I plan to author some blog posts, sharing some background information about the production of FP on here. Also, I will continue to share more extensive behind the scenes insights along with ongoing schemes regarding the future of False Positive along with other creations via Patreon.
The bottom line. I plan to make more False Positive and I hope that you'll all come along for the ride.
Thanks for the support!
Cheers!

Hey!
I just wanted to boost the signal for anyone supporting me on Patreon who might not receive notifications--I'm making changes to the Patreon reward system and content.
Check out my Patreon page for the deats.
In spite of the date, this isn't pointing to a joke.
Cheers!

To Whom It Might Concern,
Thanks for reading False Positive. I appreciate the ongoing outpouring of support.
I’ve been meaning to update you about the status of the worsening posting schedule for a while, but I was trying to put it off until we finished Last Ditch. While we don’t have much left before finishing this story, I felt compelled to explain myself now—something those keeping score at home will note that I seldom do.
Through the last couple years, the obligations of real-life have restricted how much time I can afford working on False Positive. Then, in November, I started yet another new job. The job is awesome! It also claims a heck of a lot more of my time and energy than my last job—which was pretty demanding in its own right—and I project it will do so for at least the next year or two.
>knocking on wood
For better or worse, I make F.P. when I manage to carve out time for it. So, that’s why we’re left with the erratic posting schedule. It’s also why I suck at managing my Patreon account—something I hope to remedy soon.
I don’t plan to stop making the False Positive webcomic.
After Last Ditch wraps, I do plan to take time to regroup, dedicate some hours to Patreon, and then, change how I make F.P. moving forward. Can’t wait.
There you have it.
>giving high-fives to all takers
Cheers!

Damn, what did she do to spaceman?
Disentangled his quantum signature from local space-time.
It didn’t tickle, I assure you.
‘Sigh’… well they almost kissed… I still think they’d make a great couple..What good is mastery of the universe…without someone to share your triumph with on a personal level?
Maybe because two with universal mastery is something of an oxymoron…By definition, one will have at least a slightly *greater* mastery than the other. The *desire* for mastery will create envy in the “lesser” master & jealousy in the “greater” master; there’s always going to be a rival. Even starting with an amicable “personal relationship,” it won’t last long before there’s conflict.
TL;DR – “Mastery” will, by definition, devolve into a singularity. ie: “In the end, there can be only one.”
Now, somebody get that astronaut some aspirin for his headache…
I’m starting to believe that Mike doesn’t have an ending for this and he is just dragging this out in hopes that something will occur to him.
Or one of us suggests something he can twist to his liking.
Sadly, I got nothing. This is too outside the box for me. Someone else will have to come up with it.
I’m loving every new turn! It can’t go on too long for me. However, if I come down with a fatal disease I will write to Mike and ask how it ends so I won’t have to die wondering…
There’s that scene in Constantine where Lucifer is both impressed and angry when he intones “the sacrifice”. I’m thinking old Greek not dead dude pulls off something similar, or his child stops him from doing so by sacrificing herself in his stead.
The walls were blank within the room
The party heard the crack of doom
they fled his halls, to dying fall
Beneath his fur, subsumed too soon
