Better late than never, right? That should become Theater Hopper’s official motto at this point.

Last week I was out of town attending a conference in Portland. So first let me say this: Portlandia? I totally get it now.

More germaine to the conversation however, is that I’ve been trying to catch up with my life all off this week. My wife, the kids, work, social obligations, taped episodes of Big Brother – all of it. It’s been a very hectic week. Basically penciled one night, inked the next night, colored a third night and did shading and lettering last night. UGH. I suck.

I don’t have much to say about the comic other that it was important to establish what happened to Jimmy. Soon we’ll find out what happened to Victor. The chess pieces are being moved into place. Checkmate is inevitable. In less than a few comics, we’ll be dealing with the aftermath and that’ll be it it – all she wrote.

Help me out and share this comic with your friends. Y’know… on account of the lateness. If you could tell them “Hey, Theater Hopper’s ending soon. Better get in on the action before it’s took late!” that would be awesome.

Thanks again to everyone for their patience. These last few months have been a long, hard slog for me. I really don’t want to let go. It’s painful, but it has to be done.
