NEWS: Comments and other Site improvements

Hello Everyone! I just want to quickly let you all know about a couple of improvements we've made to the Starfighter site. Starting last week, every comic page of Starfighter has had a link below it to its own comment section. We're using the Disqus comment system, which I imagine many of you are already familiar with. It's been working well so far and we hope you all like it! Even though it's only been up for short while, your response has been wonderful. Hamlet and I have both really enjoyed getting to hear all of your thoughts on the comic so far!

One other small change - you'll notice a new latest page link in the upper right hand corner of every page on the Starfigheter website. I wanted to make it easier for all of you Starfighter veterans to reach the new page each week. Hopefully you'll all find this more convenient!

Thank you all so much again for your enthusiasm in the new comments! Oh! And also, Hamlet's just finished the latest page. I'd say now would be a good time to give that new link a try! -Thisbe

NEWS: I WILL MEET YOU AT YAOI-CON!

Yes! It's time for my NYC to SF pilgrimage for Yaoi-con! The con will take place October 21st through 23, 2011 at The San Francisco Airport Marriott hotel in Burlingame, California.

I will be in the Dealer's Room this year!

I will have a bunch of new stuff with me: new t-shirts, new prints, new buttons, KEYCHAINS, and..

/ / / CHAPTER: 02 PRE-ORDER! / / /

WHICH I AM EXCITED FOR! This is a special promotion for Yaoi-con-- Chapter 02 will eventually be available online for pre-order, so don't worry if you can't make it to the con! The chapter is very close to being finished but there are still some smutty extras to draw for the printed version-- so please hold on a little longer, I promise it will be worth it!

I'll also be raffling off an original piece of traditional art, so watch out for that as well!

Ah, I am really looking forward to meeting sweet readers and hanging out with west coast friends! If you are at the con, please stop by, I would love to give you thanks and kiss your sweet fingertips!

As always, thank you so, so much for you love and support! I hope to do you all proud! -Hamlet

NEWS: Update on Chapter 2 Progress

Hello! Everyone who is waiting for the print release of Chapter 2, here is a progress report! The Deimos mini-smut-comic is finished, which is great, and I'm now in the middle of working on the Cain and Abel mini-smut-comic… which I have been waiting FOREVER to do! I'm so glad to get my black claws into this. So hold tight, my sweethearts, these goodies are on their way to you! I'll make more announcements as things develop!

Thank you so much for your patience! -Hamlet




news

NEWS: Chapter 3 Has Begun!

For anyone that missed it: Starfighter has been on hiatus so I could get Chapter 2 to the printers. Instead of the six extra pages I planned.. I went a little overboard with the smut like usual and made twelve. So, IN SHORT: the bad news was: twice as many pages took longer to get done. The good news is: the wait is over and now the print version is finished and filled with sweet extras. It's 69 pages of comic +12 pages of smut, and will also be sold for the same Chapter 1 price of $14.

I WILL ANNOUNCE WHEN IT'S ON SALE! :D

TO THE YAOI-CON PRE-ORDERS: Thank you so, so much for your patience! As soon as we get the books in, they will be shipped out to you ASAP. (You will also be getting the online pre-order goodie with your comic!)

And Yes, Chapter 3 is starting, you can look forward to regular updates!

My big, BIG thanks to Thisbe and Onorobo, who I couldn't have done this without! Thank you both so much, I love you!

Thank you all so much for your patience! You have been so sweet and encouraging and I truly appreciate it! Thank you so much for sticking with this project.. I hope you continue to enjoy the comic! -Hamlet
