Book Update (Patreon)

If you remember a month or so back, I posted I was working on a "best of" book. This would bring together something like 250 of my most popular comics into one collection. After a lot of debating back and forth, I've decided to delay this project for the time being. It's just too crazy right now, with the pandemic, people out of work, and the US election tomorrow. I feel guilty asking people to support a project like this with so much other more important stuff going on. It would be better to wait until next fall, when hopefully things are more back to normal, and everyone is just less stressed.
Since this is the case, I still would like to get a new book out before the holiday season this year (which would be book 8). I have the last year or so of comics before I took a break last time, whci have still never been available in a book. So each night, I've been working on reformatting the comics, and arranging them in a book, which looks like this:
There's still a few big decisions I need to make on this. First, should I just include every comic that hasn't been in a book, or be more selective? A lot of these old comics make jokes about things like Aetherworks Marvel, Ahmonkhet, etc. Would it better to just omit these comics that feel a little dated and replace them with more "ever green" comics? I'm not sure yet.
Second, I still need to decide the title. If you've seen my other books, they have a certain pattern to the titles. This will also dictate the artwork I make for the cover, which I still need to complete. Let me know if you have any suggestions! I need to make a decision soon though, so I have time to submit my book to the printer, get proofs, and them fixed and okayed before the end of November. I got some work to do!
I have decided who I'm dedicating this book to: my dog Charlie, since he wasn't around for the previous books!
