Yes…that’s a COW!
The strangest thing happened the other day.
My buddy Mike Maihack’s Cow from his comic Cow and Buffalo “BLINKED” himself out of his comic…and into the internet.
He’s been appearing all over the web in various comics.
Today…he popped into Dreamland’s 3D realm.
To find out how it all happened…check out Mike’s comic here…

My apologies to Mike for my HORRID modelling job.
Mike…I TOLD you I’m bad at this.
Still…it was too fun of a concept to pass up. And I thank Mike for including me.
On a side note….
We’re done with Chapter 9.
I’m lettering Chapter 10.
This is EXTREMELY scary for me.
As some of you may remember from 2 years ago. I started out with a 300 page buffer.
That buffer is now down to less than 60 pages.
That’s just over 2 months of comics I have as a cushion.
I’m working as hard as I can. But Chapter Ten may be the last chapter we see daily updates on.
Unless Chapter 11 goes REALLY REALLY well. We’ll see.
Either way.
Thanks…as always…for your support. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
No…scratch that.
I KNOW you’re going to enjoy it.
🙂
I went back and re-wrote it (it was originally written back in 2002) just for you all.
So sit back and enjoy the ride.
Don’t worry, we’re patient, and that’s some cow.. Blinked himself into the Internet?
Wait till he comes upon evidence of the Cow Level, he’s gonna freak.
I think the cow is rather funny. At first I thought I did something wrong when I typed in your URL. You did a good enough job on it anyway. 🙂
Oh, and about not being able to keep up with the daily updates – don’t worry about that. Personally I would read your comic, even if it has only one update per month – because I like it so much. And I’m sure most people here would do the same.
Wow….. a cow. All sparkly and glittery! With those usual black ovaly eyes! I like that!
I’d have to check into rehab without my daily dreamland updates…but like sythiar said, I’d read your comic even if it was one update a month.
Please don’t make it only once a month!!
so awesome, scott! horrid modeling job my butt. that is killer. i just want to hug the dense bovine.
The problem being that the photoshopping is super-obvious without AA.
Thanks all.
And thanks Mike. It was a fun idea.
I don’t think it’d ever be a once a month thing. So don’t worry all.
But I think I may have to take a break and regroup early 2008.
I’ll of course keep you all updated on the situation.
This cow thing is pretty much the coolest idea. I love it! A great way for comic lovers to expand their reading materials too!!!
*gasp* no daily pages?!? How could you! jk jk. I will miss them…but I shall…survive…somehow…if it is updated at least once a week…*cough* *wheeze*
I love the glittery cow! 🙂
You’ve spoiled us with dailies these years. 🙂 However, if you had to cut back, I think all of us would understand. Most of the webcomics I read don’t update daily anyway, so keeping up wouldn’t be a hardship.
Looking forward to Chapter 10!
I definitely understand if you need a break. You’ve work so hard on the comic as is, you deserve it and more. I’d wait however long it takes to come back, even if it took months or longer, the only thing I ask is that you keep the readers updated on what’s going on. There’s nothing worse than when a artist says they’ll be back by a certain time, and yet months after said date, they’re still nowhere to be found. It’s extremely frustrating not knowing if the artist will ever come back to one of their works. -_-
But anyway, love the comic. I think I might just have to read it to my 6-year-old brother when I come home this winter. Happy Holidays =)
Most of the comics I read online update on alternating days like Mon-Wed-Fri, or Tue-Thur, etc. So I’m sure if you want to cut back and only do certain days, no one would fault you for it in the slightest, especially considering the quality of the work done on this.
Nice shout-out to Joe Satriani’s Surfing with the Alien in the background today! Among guitarists, he is top-notch … and if you’ve never seen any of his performances, you have NO idea what you’re missing.
Keep up the great artwork & storyline, Scott!
Hi All!
I hardly (If ever) post here…I mostly leave this to Scott…I just look at the pages every day! The cow was so cute though…I love the idea!
I just want to personally say THANK YOU to all of you out there who have made this comic what it is! It really is Scott’s passion to put this together for you all and it means so much that you are enjoying it and supporting him daily!
I will also let you know that every morning he wakes up (twinkle in eye) and goes downstairs (his office is on our basement) and to work on Dreamland! Every time I go down there to bring him food (or he won’t remember to eat…those crazy artist types) he has pages up on his (many) computers and is always rendering something! Even our 4 year olds know what rendering means…I mean what 4 year old knows this! Yikes!
It is killing him that he might have to take a break to regroup and get some additional pages done for you all! So please be patient with him! I have seen most of the story stuff (sorry…marital priveledges) and it is going to be awesome! I promise you won’t be disappointed! And I’m feeding him and occasionally giving him oxygen so he can continue to work as fast as is humanly possible!
I wish all of you a wonderful holiday season to you and your families!

Oh cool, there are Tauren in the Dreamland expansion!
