Alrighty. Here’s the deal. The plan was for the last comic (the Thanksgiving Day Parade one) to be a special extra comic for Thanksgiving weekend, followed by a brand new comic the following Monday, as regularly scheduled. Well, that was a great plan… …until we went and got a baby the weekend after Thanksgiving! Needless to say, the house has been a flurry of activity at all hours of the day (and night!), meaning that I just couldn’t work up a new comic last week. Mea culpa.

With that said, you may have noticed that this comic above is the official 199th Zoidland comic. I’ve got some ideas percolating for where the strip is going to head in 2008, and suffice it to say: I’m pretty excited. I might actually get a plotline going, here! Stay tuned, True Believers!
