This comic was basically just me thinking aloud about the comic and the last five years. I really hadn't thought the comic would ever be as popular as it was, though I have to admit that I did hope it would. But I never made any money off of it, mostly due to my inability to sell Megaman-based merchandise.
After this comic, I did actually get invited to a couple of conventions. I guess it had never occurred to anyone to ask before this. Unfortunately, due to other constraints, the only convention I was able to attend was Youmacon. Liss and I actually went twice. The first time, in 2005, was their first year, and while chaotic, was a helluva lot of fun. The second time was fun too, though my expectations from the previous year led me to be a bit disappointed. It was during my second appearance that I announced that the comic was ending. I was invited back for a third time, but that would have taken place after the comic had ended, and I thought it would be a little weird to be a guest for something that had ended. Regretfully, I think I may have offended someone by turning them down, and I was never asked back again.
But hey, I got to meet some fans, I got to meet the Spoony Bards (aka Arc Impulse), and I got to meet Captain Lou!
