Ginger's Bread

Ginger’s Bread – 338

January 23rd, 2012 | by Carl

And that’s the end of Balton! I had only planned this short little while with him but I’m kind of disappointed we didn’t get any time with a Sam Elliot type character. Maybe another time…

If you don’t get what’s with the art in the last panel, allow me to help you get to Know Your Meme. Between regular Ginger and modified meme Ginger, modified meme was funnier to me.

Anyone wanting a larger version of the last panel to accept challenges with: Here ya go.

Also! Ginger’s fancy shirt in the bottom half of the comic is the same shirt worn by Max Facepuncher. If you don’t know who Max Facepuncher is, and by the name alone you want to, I’m going to direct you to the fancy comic by Jamie Anderson: The Fancy Adventures of Jack Cannon. It’s pretty amazing. And the shirt is fairly appropriate to Ginger’s challenge.

Thanks for reading!

Unexpected start to 2012

January 3rd, 2012 | by Carl

Welp, I was planning on starting 2012 of right with regular updates but despite having a handful of scripts, I hit a wall of artist block. So I thought about it for a while while struggling to draw the next comic and thought about this for a solution:

A number of other cartoonist are taking some time off right now, a few not returning until next week. I’m going to jump into that boat and the next comic will be up on January 9th. I decided to go with it this way because I’d rather start the year with comics I’m happy with instead of comics I forced up late anyway. Also, as we’re jumping into another story arc, I’d like the updates to be more consistent while we go.

Thanks for understanding, I’m hoping to make this the start to a much better update pattern in 2012 than we had in 2011. Thanks for reading and I’ll see you on Monday!

Donations

December 9th, 2011 | by Carl

I just wanted to make a quick comment on donations since I haven’t mentioned or done anything with them in a while:

Donation gifts are on hiatus. I haven’t had time to do a new one in months and the last few were lost in the hard drive crash a few months ago. I hadn’t changed the donate image for a while because there hadn’t been interest and I hadn’t had time. But recently there was donation so I felt I should fix that.

For the time being the tip jar is back and there’s no donation gift aside from a good feeling of knowing you’re helping the comic out. I’m hoping at one point to bring back the monthly donation image but first I want to get the comic updating regularly again. If you’d like to donate to help keep the site going and give me that much more of an excuse to focus on the comic, please do, just know there won’t be a special gift right now.

Thanks to all those who have donated in the past and plan to in the future.

A Wild Fan Art Appears!

December 3rd, 2011 | by Carl

Big apologizes to Shobi! During my trip a couple weeks ago, I received a bit of fan art from Shobi and said I would post it with the new comic on Monday. Well, we all know how well that went. And I completely forgot to upload the fan art when I fixed the lack of comic! Now I’m further disappointed that Shobi has no website to share, but why not leave some comments? You can find it in the Fan Art section or I have a convenient thumbnail below you can click on to see it.

Thanks again Shobi!

3 years!

November 10th, 2011 | by Carl

Today is the comic’s 3rd birthday! Yay!

It’s been a lot of fun so far and I’ve got lots of plans for the future. I wanted to just take a moment to thank all of you awesome readers. Thank you for reading. Thank you for sticking around this summer during the crazy update (or lack thereof) schedule. Thank you for following and retweeting on Twitter, liking on Facebook, +1-ing on Google+, and in general spreading the word about the comic to others. Thank you for taking the time to comment on comics, e-mail me, and being part of Ginger’s Breadite army. Thank you for donating (when I had monthly prints going. Something I hope to bring back eventually). And thank you for making doing the comic so much fun.

I have a lot of ideas for the future and really hope I get the chance to do them all. I also hope you’ll all stick around to be part of them.

Come back tomorrow for a new comic! Here’s to several more years of Ginger’s Bread!

More Fanart!

August 1st, 2011 | by Carl

This time we have a bit of Fanart from Lewis inspired by the news of Jurassic Park IV. I suspect this would be a much better movie:

Per usual, it’s on the Fanart page and I’ll be adding it to the Facebook gallery once I get a chance.
