2 items.
So you guys remember that contest I was running last week for The Kingdom, right? On Friday I received the prize pack in the mail and I wanted to share this picture with you:
First of all, let me say that it is KILLING me to give this stuff away. I would happily keep all of it. But that’s not the agreement I made with you. One of the lucky folks who submitted their entry has been randomly chosen to receive these goodies and they are on their way this week!
Secondly, I wanted to post this to demonstrate that I am NOT FOOLING AROUND when it comes to these contests. I am giving away cool stuff here, people! In fact, I’m kicking myself that I didn’t make you guys jump through more hoops to be eligible for this contest. Since The Triple Feature talkcast was down last week, you didn’t have to listen to the broadcast for a clue or anything. Crazy!
And, by the way, another Triple Feature talkcast is on for tonight at 9:00 PM CST so you need to listen in to see what kind of crazy stuff we have cooked up.
At any rate, if you want to stay on top of these contests, I strongly suggest that you sign up for the mailing list. I’ll give you guys the advance notice on the upcoming contests I’ll be running along with weekly recaps of Theater Hopper news. Who knows – I might just offer my next DVD giveaway to my mailing list subscribers EXCLUSIVELY! But you’ll never know unless you sign up!
Talk to you all tonight during The Triple Feature talkcast. Take care!

Okay, here’s that second post I was talking about.
First, a little background…
As part of WordPress and the ComicPress theme running behind the scene and managing the archives, I have the ability to go back and add transcripts to nearly 7 years worth of comics. Transcripts, of course, being the written dialogue from each strips typed out and captured for posterity.
The advantage of submitting transcripts to the database is that it makes the archives easier to search. So if someone wanted to find out if I made fun of Back to the Future in any of my comics, the search functionality of the site won’t have to rely exclusively on key words in the blog posts and that individual gets more accurate results.
Here’s the problem: 7 YEARS OF COMICS!
So I was thinking that I would solicit you guys for a little help. Here’s how it works:
I’ve created a new page that lists each month since August 2002. Also on that page is a list of items I will trade you in compensation for transcribing comics. Everything from shirts and books to promotional DVDs and original artwork. It’s a good mix of stuff. Different items are worth different amounts. A shirt is equal to 3 months of transcriptions, a DVD might be worth 5 months.
If you’re up to the challenge, e-mail me at theaterhopper@hotmail.com and let me know what item you want to trade for and I will assign you the months to transcribe. We can work out the details from there. Availability on certain items is first come, first serve. So don’t wait if you see something you want.
With any luck, we can put this little chore to bed in short order and improve functionality across the site that everyone can enjoy!
