Aquazone Breakfast News: 160






Here we go again! The run-up to Christmas is the busiest time of year for a mailman, so I highly doubt I'll get a comic up every day, but I do hope to at least get one up FOR every day, even if that means catch-up extra strips some days.

Going by the normal Star Wars astromech numbering conventions, the ast-snow-mech ought to have a "Letter-Number-dash-Letter-Number" designation ("R2-D2"). For example, it could have been read backwards to what I went with: W0-N5. I did try to do something like "S7-O3" but it didn't look nearly as much like "SN-OW" as I wanted, so I went with it. If you want an in-universe explanation, keep in mind that I doubt ast-snow-mechs are manufactured with designations at all and that Lucien (like me) probably cared more for the pun than strict accuracy.

Aquazone Breakfast News: 155

That's right, folks, your eyes aren't deceiving you: it's a new AqBN! It's been three months since the last update and I would *really* like to say that I'm back, but we'll see... I'm hopeful, because I've figured out a routine for picture-taking on my breaks at work, but I'm not-so-hopeful because, to use this week as an example, I'm working upwards of 50 hours a week and by the time you get home in the evenings, you're much too tired and lazy for most creative endeavours.

Still, I'm going to give it a try, and I've even stockpiled an Advent Calendar for December in the hopes that I'll manage a 24-day schedule then. In the meantime, enjoy the (hopefully not temporary) return from hiatus:
