Cú Chulainn and the Sorcery Twins
Hi friends !
Long time no see, long time no talk, long time no Cú.
Mirlik has been working his a** out in order to get his last book published (120 dates of French History, so 120 drawings) and, as he got some time left, he's been working on Cú Chulainn and Cú Cuc for the last 2 weeks. Which means some 10 new pages about to see the light of day.
We'll publish them as quick batches when they're ready, one each day (for the time it lasts). We'll also draw very near to the end of Cú Cuc Volume 1, which leads me to this :
Whassthat ? Whosthat ?
Cú Chulainn and the Sorcery Twins
Well L&G, let me introduce the SORCERY twins. The two magical beings, from the Siddhe, who will help our favourite hero solve some situations (involving magic) in the main Cú Chulainn storyline.
What about Cú Cuc then ? Well, they might have a role to play there as well. You'll see.
I can hear some of you asking, "has Mirlik" gone back to analogical or what ? Well, yes and no : Mirlik always draws sketches by hand, and sometimes a full illustration like this one. Proof :
This is... yes, soooo analogical a desk.
This illustration spun out of this quick numeric sketch :

All this to say that, please, bear with us and don't despair, the webcomics are going on, this was a huge hiatus, and we can't promise there won't be other ones, only shorter.
Rendez-Vous in two weeks for the new pages.
Yours Trully, Mirlik & Cath

Hey, thanks guys !!
We're the ones who feel sorry for letting our readers down for so long.
Just before we leave for one of those saturday nights, here's a little quote from one of our favorite films. (yeah,... what does it have to do with anything ?? nothing we just like it, and have each had 2 or 3 pints already)
" Tell him, you know, it's a think piece about a midlevel band struggling with their own limitations in the harsh face of stardom. He'll wet himself."

There is little sadder than an abandoned site. Please put this dead thing to rest!

Sadder things I can think of :
- global warming
- people dying of hunger, loads of them
- reading a Barbara Cartland book
- programing in Logo
The thing is not going to rest anytime soon. Our problem right now is work overload. Ronan (Yeah, Milik is called Ronan Seure le Bihan and is a professional illustrator) had a lot of commissioned artwork this year, and the pace is not slowing down, on the contrary. We even did some work we'll talk about later, when it will be undisclosed by our clients, which is pretty big.
For my own part, Cathabd (called Pierre Lhoste, web developer amongst other things), I'm trying to catch up with the massive changes in web architectures lately to build up a new Oghme, with a much larger scope.
This is all a WIP, we do in our spare time which is close to zero, so please bear with us.
And by the way, who ARE you, fourth of Wally ?

This is a great webcomic! The best I've found in a long time. And the art! Oh the art is wonderful! If only my stuff here half that good.
