The worst of all evils.

The worst of all evils.

I’m really sorry about this.  Rest assured it will come back I have too much time and resources invested in all kinds of models and script notes to throw it away (and a logo and domain registration).  I just have to decide on the direction I want to go with it.  It was originally going to be similiar to PronQuest but in a scifi setting.  Then I found out that Project Wonderful won’t let me run ads on anything with nudity.  Then even after I tried to tame it down, it’s not acceptable to OnlineComics.   You guys didn’t even did to see the starships, the giant robots or a host of other things.  But I shall return.   For the time being I plan to keep running with PronQuest despite the recent purgings off of the webcomic lists that had originally allowed nudity.  I have to be realistic in that the trend will most likely continue and eventually both Portcall and PronQuest will not be allowed to be listing on ANY webcomic lists.  And then there won’t be any traffic at all.   So I have to come up with a plan….

Truth is, I’m not sure anyone was actually reading this comic.  :P

    Let us know. I, for one, will be waiting, along with, I’m sure, many others.

    Don’t write it off yet, I’m still updating PronQuest everyday, I just reached a point where my real life jobs paying the bills started taking up more time than they had been. They’ll eventually ebb and I’ll be back to updating here, too.

    Possibly, I’m trying to retune PronQuest’s web SEO stuff then I’ll be redoing Portcall Uranus, Yokelhoma, and Con the Caveman, I’m pretty happy with some of the new character models for Portcall and have some personality work ups so it should be pretty fun to start redoing it. :D

    Hey, Ebenezer — I like your comics (both this and Pronquest) and really like the jokes you layer through them (had quite a giggle over the Edgar suit…).

    I herewith offer my editing services, however, as there are a few instances of your/you’re and a few other such errors that detract from your good work. Drop me a line — or a script — and I’ll have it cleaned and returned asap.

    Well now that I know it exists….

    This one seems more likely to involve characters with names like “Emperor Wang, Supreme leader of the Bug-eyed Buggerers from the Planet Pervo” than Pronquest, since it’s in a Sci Fi Setting…

    Aw, I wanna see how he does at poker.

  14. Elfguy

    Or if it’s not really “Poker” but “Poke ‘er”
