Lewis's Notes
Here's something cool: the people who make Bitmap World are putting together emoticon versions of characters from other webcomics, including Terror Island. I, Lewis, order you to go check it out, and also read Bitmap World.

Ben's Notes
Triangle and Robert has been doing a major epic finale lately, which came to a end today. That strip's been a fairly big influence on me, and I've been impressed by the way it ended. There's a strong sense of balancing the needs of the narrative with those of the characters, and the result gave lots of resolution while providing new details to speculate over. (This is intentionally vague, since I don't want to spoil it for anyone.)
The 31-page ending is probably the best part of the strip, but I don't recommend reading it if you're unfamiliar with T&R, since it would be almost completely incomprehensible. Instead, start at the very beginning and take my word for it that it'll get good.
