So. If - and only if - the last part of Chapter Seven of The Dualist takes forever to render, I've decided I'll be getting back to DCR this summer. It's the Circle Of Life, or something - DCR got started when it did because Chapter Four was such a bitch in the rendering department.

I'll be getting back to DCR after The Dualist is done, regardless - it's just a question of the comic beginning to update this summer, or this fall. It would be totally awesomely super spiffy if I was somehow able to finish chapter one of DCR at the same time as The Dualist, but I doubt this is going to happen.

The plan at present is to slightly tweak the ATC site after The Dualist is finished, after which I'll start mirroring DCR to ATC in a "compiled" format - strips chunked together into comic-sized pages. Doing so will put the unfolding Book One on the same site as the completed Book Two, and will allow me to coallate all of the ATC cast into one ATC cast page. You'd think it a non-issue now, but come DCR chapters Two, Three and Four, there's going to be a hell of a lot of redundancy. And redundancy is bad, mm-kay?

At this point I'm still undecided on rather or not to dive into Book Three after I've finished The Dualist, but that's a matter for contemplation and discussion over there, not over here. If I do, I'll be getting all of the modelling done first. And there's a lot of modelling.
