Indeed.  Ten years on seemed the perfect place to do this.  I'm really glad Ren agreed to do guest art for this, I just hope he can get the remaining pages done in time!

Huh, I guess this is just non-cannon guest art by Ren?

It's rarely that the "It was just a dream" trope can be pulled off without backlash from the audience in this day and age. I suspect something more than just "non canon" art.
That's what the fillers are for. Well that, and Tape's plan B in the grand scheme that is regular updates.  :P

It really wasn't a dream, and he's dreaming now. :-P

Seriously, This is awesome! This is something that only could have happened because of the artists changing. This is a very strong use of the "it could be a dream" thing because, now with Ren doing the art, it actually feels like we've been thrown back to the start of the comic, and a very effective use of the comic's history. God this is so cool

Thanks.  I'm really excited for the next couple of pages myself.  This is something that could either work really well or end up a complete mess.

The good thing about art is that it is subjective. Tape, no matter the outcome, it's here and people enjoy it.

Ok, I don't understand this update.  Are we officially in reboot comic mode?

If the next page gets delayed, I'll give you a hint.

Hopefully the next update will happen by Monday, but no promises.  Since it's going to be late I will point out that a reboot would adversely affect Epsilon.
When the next page does run, it should put things into perspective.

Not if Epsilon is Josh's next dream

OK, the third page of this sequence is now in my possession, and should be up by Friday at the latest.  Sorry for the delay - turns out Ren's computer died, which didn't help matters.
