Important Announcement: New Series

23 Comments

Important Announcement!

Anthronauts will be going on hiatus while Nixie fixes earlier pages. Page 106 marked the end of Volume 1- which may eventually be released in print.

If you spot any errors, please send an email to nixieseal (at) katbox.net

In the meantime, Nixie is also starting a new comic series called Fungus Farm!

SAFE Farm, a space colony designed to produce food, is beset upon by a dangerous alien fungus. The farm workers- Chess, Dice, and many others- all have different ideas of how to deal with the problem.

And that is where YOU come in! After the first four pages, readers like you can respond to SAFE’s distress signal! While you can’t personally fly a spaceship over, you can send messages directly to the characters; you can ask questions, give advice, and many other things. This will direct the events of the comic. More details on this will be released when we hit the 4-page mark and SAFE’s distress signal is sent out.

You can read the comic here! – http://fungusfarm.katbox.net/

    Hhmmmm…. I’ve had some training in landscape and horticulture, so I might be able to contribute a bit in the comments section, when the time is right.

    • NixieSeal

      That would be nifty ^_^

  • BigBadWolf

    Hmm lets stick to our tale here, will the characters be attacked by said fungi or will it be a fun guy with a spore to settle with the crew?

    • NixieSeal

      Oh, that was terrible! XD

      • Chaos

        At least their jokes won’t get moldy for a while.

        • NixieSeal

          *Head desk*

          • Chaos

            You could make a faery character who grows their crop in a circle. My jokes grow on you. :D Oh! And the guards wear red and green shirts with overalls!

          • Chaos

            Sorry for the double posting of the same lame joke.. It looked like from my end it got deleted the first time.

          • Chaos

            You could make the guards or police of the area wear red and green with blue overalls!

    • RedDwarfIV

      Looks like Chess and Dice are in for a world of pun.

  • RedDwarfIV

    I have got to send the a suggestion.

    *Taps microphone.*
    SAFE Farm, this is ISARRV Anaxagoras Crater Commander Siorren, copy your distress signal. Cannot currently respond due to navigational system errors, but the Command Crew is setting up a comittee in the meantime to discuss what advice to give you. Secondary notice, Anaxagoras Crater is out of comm’ range with authorities, cannot assist that way. My crew and I wish you good luck, SAFE Farm facility, Crater out.

    • NixieSeal

      Might save that for later on. ^_^

      • RedDwarfIV

        Yay for ascended fanon!

      • RedDwarfIV

        I should draw the Anaxagoras Crater in case you ever need to show it. Though more likely, it would be shown in any fan-comic I made for Fungus Farm in which the crew sends Chess and Dice a suggestion.
        As you might gather from the prefix [which sounds like something NASA might come up with], the name [which, depending on if Fungus Farm is in the same continuity as Anthronauts, comes from a moon that orbits a planet that stopped being inhabited when Alpha Draconians invaded] and the fact that they neither have useful comm’s or a working nav computer, the Anaxagoras Crater is an old bucket that would be a Wright Brothers plane if SAFE Farm was a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

    A new comic is in the making?!?! Just from the title of “Fungus Farm” tells me that it is going to be entertaining.
    As/on a side note/comment/question: Hey Nixie, it’s nice to meet you. I have a quick question, is that your antro-avatar in today’s filler comic and if so, what species is it, if you don’t mind me asking?

    • NixieSeal

      Today’s filler comic features the character Chess, one of the two main characters of Fungus Farm.The link is fungusfarm.katbox.net if you want to see!

    • RedDwarfIV

      Nixie’s fursona is, as you might gather from her usename, a seal.

  • Tek

    I love the idea! I dont like fungus, but this comic seems awesome! Ive read some pages, and its not bad. I really like the idea of the people commenting dictating how the comic progresses! Cool idea, I can’t wait to see how this works!

  • Anonymous

    Now before we go any further with this talk of fungus we have to askourselves how technilogically advanced are these people and are they carbon based and are these fungus carbon based or are they just a life form at acts similiar to fungus because this could severley impact the story.

    i know this comic is going to be on hiatus for a while, but i’m still coming here in case the hiatus ends or new artwork gets posted here. is nixie gonna let us know in her new comic, like in the comments section, when this comic is gonna come off hiatus, or is it just gonna be a stab in the dark guess for this comic?

    • NixieSeal

      I will make an announcement on Fungus Farm when Anthronauts returns. Sorry about the wait.

  • AWK

    Fungi BAD this Good so get back to work on the good stuff! Please!

    • NixieSeal

      Sorry about the wait. There will be an announcement on Fungus Farm and the Katbox forum when Anthronauts returns.
