Page 1000!!!!!
Wow.
Um…I have nothing to say here really.
I’m so happy to have reached this milestone. And I thank you all (a lot of you who have been here from page 1) for reading along with me.
1000 pages is no small feat. And I’m happy I was able to do this in only 3 years and 10 months.
Through our move from Los Angeles to Nashville. Our boys first day at school. My back injury. Multiple website reboots.
You guys have been so supportive over the years.
Thank you all!
Β
I was hoping to announce something cool. But really…nothing “cool” is ready to be announced.
Not just yet.
Β
So…thank you.
No fireworks. No fanfare. Just….thank you.
And here’s to another 1000 pages.
π
Have a great day.
Scott
Woo!!! 1000 pages!!!
Congratulations, Scott! May the next 1,000 bring you just as much joy!
The next page and a simple thanks is pretty good in my book. π I’ve been here for a year and a half now and I love it! You rock, Scott, you and your amazing story.
I just want to thank you for this wonderful comic Scott!
Conga Rats and Mambo Mice!
Here’s to another 1000!
Your storytelling and visual creativity have progressed so much Scott since I started reading way back during the underwater adventure. I’m so glad to have found your story and been able to follow it day by day. Much thanks for the new avatars as well… I think this one suits me better than the last.
congrats but who put the fireworks in the rain should speak to you because 1000 is no small feet as you said you should be give the fanfare
See if you can hire Michael Bay to create some explosions to celebrate your 1000th page.
Awwww….snif…poor Nicole.. suddenly she seems so lost.. For her it must feel like losing Felicity all over again.
1000 pages? Wow..Some work..
Grats on the milestone!
π‘ I have a 1000-page present for everyone, though some may not enjoy it as much as others. π
Smileys! π― π
Here is a page that lists the text smileys that WordPress translates into graphical smileys: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Smilies
I’ve seen pages where a few of you have experimented, trying to find these combinations. So here they are!

Happy 1000! Thanks for being so awesome!
Congratulations to 1000 Pages … really nice work
Heres to the next 10,000 pages. I will be very impressed if this webcomic does last 30+ years. If anyone can pull it off though, its scott. We continue to celebrate your awesomeness one day at a time.
You can’t hear it, but I’m playing you a fanfare. On tuba no less. Well deserved, Mr. Sava. Congratulations.
Hey, I’ve been a reader since day 5 I think. I’ve never commented so I would like to take this day to say congrats and thanks!
Congratulations!
Wow! Thank you so much for the comic! Has it really been that long? 3 years? Wow. I remember waiting for the clock to turn to 10 (that’s when the comic updates over here in Seattle) and quickly refreshing the page to see what happened next to Alex after he entered that cave. And now… I still do that! It’s even like a family tradition with my dad now whenever I go over to his house. We talk, have dinner, and read the latest Dreamland…
I really can’t thank you enough for all the hard work you’ve put into this! It has been an amazing adventure so far, and I can’t wait to see what’s up next!
Wow, congratulations on 1000 pages!
Woooooooooooo!!!! Congratulations! That IS a milestone, quite an accomplishment *applauds loudly* Thank you very much for putting it all online to let everyone share in this great story!!
Cheers to another 1000 pages.
woot
BEWARE THE MAGICAL CHANGING HOCKEY POSTER
Also, congrats on 1000 pages
Congrats on 1000 pages! This is my favorite comic of all time. I applaud your talent, helpers, and tenacity!
Congrats on the first 999 pages, but this one bites. π
π jk, this one rocks too, of course!
OMG Smileys? π―
Tekserver, you will have much to answer for…
π
Congratulations Scott for the 1000th pages, great job with drawing this comic until now.
May you continue on to the next 1000 pages and more π
nice dose of gloom in celebration of the 1000th page. π
seriously, though: congrats for making it this far and I hope you’ll have as much fun with the next 1000 pages as you had with the past ones. π
Congrats on 1000 pages!
Methinks it’s we who should be thanking you π Hugs and congratulations, and many many thanks for sharing your beautiful comic with us.
1000, what a milestone indeed! Congratulations for keeping it up that far, and congratulations for intending to keep it up even longer (because that’s even more impressive). congratulations, even more importantly, to have managed to keep readers hooked up on such a passionating story for all this time, and congratulations for such devotion to this work of art, which undoubtedly surpasses anything ever seen before on the net. like I said before, I hope to see it one day getting literature or comic prizes (if it didn’t get any yet, I’m not exactly up to speed on these matters) and to see it becoming a bestseller, it really deserves it!
And it’s really no problem if there’s no fireworks for this event (where I am anyway -Northern France- it’s so so cold they’d probably freeze in mid-air). Once again, congratulations, and it should be us, the fans, who should be thanking you.
1000 pages, well congrat’s. And commenting on the fanfare which you say you don’t have for us, you’d better listen to the sweet gratefullness of your readers. Never blow your own horn π
Great Scott! Congratulations on page 1000! Here’s to the next 1,000!
Or, as the Dread Pirate Roberts would say: good job, sleep well… I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.
*bows deeply*
Congratulations to you Scott and to your family. Thank you for your story crafting and your commitment. As far as no fireworks……………..Great stories don’t need it! π
Thank you!
Congrats man. I remember all those many years ago when you showed me those first Dreamland drawings you had done. Who’d have thunk it would have gotten this far.
One word: Woot!
Congrats, man. [:
Congratulations!
Congratulations for these 1000 pages of excellence! No small feat indeed and thousands of followers can tell you have great it is to get news everyday of Dreamland.
Congrats on reaching this milestone, Just found this comic this past weekend and have enjoyed it very much.
thanks:)
WHOO! Happy 1000 pages, Scott! Long live the dream!
At least someone other than me noticed the changing helmet thing.
CONGRATULATIONS SCOTT I’ve only been reading since about the start of summer, but this such an accomplishment that there are no words to describe all our thanks. Go Dreamland!
No, Thank-you, Scott. And Thanks to everyone who helped you bring your dream to life.
too true π
1000 wow. so in print this is one book? You rock thanks for all the great work you do scott
“No fireworks. No fanfare. Justβ¦.thank you.”????
Well, here I had fireworks (at least the one I could get: a birthday candle) and fanfare (a MP3 file) to thank you, Scott!
We all have to thank *you* for theses 1,000 pages that makes our days better!
Thank you very much!
If you mean just in this strip, the helmet doesn’t change. It’s just his hair in the way in the third frame.
Congrats on the 1,000 strips. I’ve been reading from the beginning and I’ve loved every minute. It’s so refreshing seeing a comic that looks more like a movie.
1000 pages…and it just keeps getting better.
Don’t thank us, Scott – thank YOU.
1) Congratulations, Scott! This is indeed a milestone. 2) For not announcing anything, you sure gave us some excellent foreshadowing of what’s to come via frame 2! π
Scott,
Congrats on the milestone, I hope you enjoy the next thousand as much as you did these. 1000 pages!! Wow, what a trip its been, *raises a glass of champagne* Heres to you, and your characters!!!1
congratulations on the big 1000!
Here’s to Mr. Sava and another 1,000 pages!
I, personally, can’t wait. π
Congrats!! It’s such a pleasure to seem artists striving to complete their work for the sake of the work!
8) Cool!
Thanks!
That feels like a lifetime ago, Don. Doesn’t it?
In print this is 4 books. 3 are in stores already. You’re currently reading book 4.
Thank you all!
I wish I could thank each of you individually. But thank you nonetheless.
Also…you gave me an idea for fireworks. Will try something out shortly.
π
*starts the wave*
Congratulations on 1000 strong! Here’s to the next 1000. π
Grats on the 1k pages! I can honestly say that reading this comic has made my life better, even if it is just something to cheer me up between doctor appointment. I’m sure many others feel the same. Keep up the good work, and remember; You are making a difference!
IT’S OVER 1000!!!!!
…well, starting tomorrow it will be, anyways. Congrats on the milestone, and long live Dreamland! π
Congrats on the awesome achievement Scott! It’s been an awesome ride, and I’m glad it’s not over yet! ^.^

WOO-HOO!!! awesomeness and congrats cs!!
Scott, you forgot something very cool that you could have announced: that you have been able to share this wonderful adventure with us for 1000 pages and almost 4 years. That is very cool!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this.
There may not be fireworks, but I have confetti! π
Thank you so much Scott, this is one of my favorite web comics, and a big part of it is how much you interact with the fanbase to keep us all up to date and entertained. So Thank You! And I heres to more successful years in Dreamland! π
My daughter read the today comic page and shouted: “I hate when there are secrets and I don’t know them! Where’s the next page??”
Yeah, your series has a dangerous addiction potential. Even after 1000 pages. Congrats!
I’m looking forward to page no. 2000. π
Congrats!!! Here’s to you and to Dreamland!! π The banner and the balloons are a nice touch, and I can’t wait to see the fireworks.
So, when are the guys going to put up a Sidney Crosby poster in their dorm room??? π
HAhahah, it has probably been said already, but i will do it already…
ITS OVER 900!!!!
Yea, lame, i know…
Ah… silly me… I glanced at the dots in the sky & thought “oh cool, fireworks!” Of course, now that I know they’re balloons, I can see the difference… π³ and fine balloons they are!
Anyways…. congrats on page 1000!!! Thanks for sharing your creative genius with us on a daily basis!
Is it just me, or is there NO link to the topwebcomics voting anywhere on the site? It should be in the sidebar imo…
Gosh, Scott! 1000 pages! I remember finding your comic on “BuzzComics” and I think you had just finished your first chapter. I already knew there was something special about your work, and here your comic has outlasted the very list I found it on. Looking forward to the next 1000, (and the books, and the movies, and the sequels, and the spin offs, and…….)
If you want to vote for Dreamland, here’s a handy and expertly crafted link, http://topwebcomics.com/vote/4274/default.aspx
congrats on a 1000 pages!
Here is to DC1K! Looking forward to DC2K! π
Scott – Congratulations on a thousand pages of wonder and fun!
Donna – Thank you for letting him work this lovely dream onto the internet for us every day and supporting him so lovingly. As he kinda said before when talking about Alex, its the love and support of a good woman that lets a man fly.
God bless!
I voted as soon as i got to the page π
scott dont thank us, it was of our own pleasure that we read your amazing comic , i’ve been a fan for quite a while and ive told SOOO MAANY people how amazing it is and i was gunna do something for 100 but i like totally forgot about it sorrys x.x…
Congratulations on 1000!!!
Really loving the balloons and banner. They look really spiffy.
Seeing you reach your milestone makes me feel more inspired to start my own webcomic. *goes to write more of the script*
congrats!!!!! 1000 pages is tremendous. You really have a great comic here and thank you for keeping it family friendly.
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
Yay! Wow on a thousand already! I’ve been reading for almost a year now, thank you for the great comic Scott! π
Congrats on 1000 pages! I have been following since Scott Kurtz (pvponline.com) mentioned you (after reading all the archives) and looking forward to reading your page every day. Your artwork drew me in but it the story that keeps me wanting more.
Thank-you very much!
P.s The Balloons and Banner are awesome! Only just showed up when the page refreshed π
WIZARD OF OZ – TONIGHT AT 6:30 AT A THEATER NEAR YOU
I feel for Nicole, because we, who live in the “real” world, knows what to expect from it. What is so endearing about her is that she is us, the readers, in the manner that she lived in her world expecting it to work like ours does. It didn’t. I would still be doubting if I were here
(I would think it was all a very complicated prank, I have a certain movie in mind that would be similar to that concept, but mentioning it would just lead to people loosing…)
Here’s abig YAY to you NOT acquiring MOUSE ARM (or mouse elbow or whatever that disease is called in English) π
May you NEVER get it, Scott!
WAY TO GO!
Woot!! 1000!! Amazing!
ONE THOUSAND PAGES :DDD! Scott, you all keep us enthralled in your comics and for it to reach one thousand pages is almost expected from this wonderful comic you have crafted! Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for continuing to make us smile each day :).
(Alex is Peter Pan, He can fly π !)
i so have to throw in a comment now… XD here i was… minding my business of not trying to crowd the place with my wittyness, just reading like a good little person would… and then u had to say no fanfare… XD
*shoots off fireworks in tune to the 1810 overture* there. π ur fanfare. enjoy! ^^ and may the next thousand bring u nothing but good things!!! ^^^^
3 years already!? π―
DC is about to become a comic with a history then. Big Grats to page 1000!
Btw. when so you plan to celebrate your first anniversary?^^
Love the Balloons.
*screams* WOOO!!! 1000 PAGES!!!! WOOT! WOOT! *throws confettie*
Assuming that what you were going to try shortly is the changes to the website for the day, I LOVE IT!! Nice touch, my man! And seriously, though yes you do need the support of others for your business, in all seriousness, man the real thanks goes to you for providing the awesome storyline and good family fun.
Well, if this is book 4 of 4 and we’re just not hitting 1,000 I suspect that we don’t have too much further to go…. OH NO!!! I’M NOW SADDENED BY THIS! 1,000 PAGES MEANS IT’S ALMOST FINISHED!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! π (not that I don’t want it to be finished, but frankly, I’m enjoying this rollercoaster ride of a comic a bit much)
*just now
Please save it into your favorites, and then you won’t have to worry about someone programming it into each day’s postings. π
Thank you for creating such a great story! Here is too the next 1,000 pages.
Hey Scott just though I would say hi. Well hi!
Hey guys! Thank you! What a wonderful celebration.
I better get working on the fireworks for the night version of the site.
π
Congratulations, Scott! Thanks so much for three years and ten months of Dreamland x3 <3
I can’t wait to see the next 1000, Go Scott Go!
I love the banner and balloons ^__^ Can’t wait to see the fireworks! Thanks Scott, and congrats on 1000 pages =)
Seriously, well done. I’m looking forward to where the story (and your awesome art) goes from here. Dedication really is it’s own reward, you’re an inspiration mate. π
really like the balloons and the banner. congrats on reaching 1000 pgs. cant wait for the fire works. heres to another 1000 and many more happy readers.
wow, 1000 pages.
I joined in just when the gang got to the centaur’s area, and read through the archive quickly thereafter. Really impressed, and can’t wait for 1000 more pages. :3 Congratulations!
I believe it’s been almost a year since I started reading… I hardly ever comment out of lack of time (and of anything clever to say…), but at least this I must say: CONGRATULATIONS!! =D
Yay balloons!
Looking forward to fireworks!
Wow, 1,000 pages. I’m just getting to page 100 on my web comic and it’s exciting, so 1,000 must be incredible.
This is a really great comic. if comics can become classics, Dreamland definetly deserves to be one.
So much for no fireworks! LOVE IT!
totally freakin spectacular fireworks, i wish we had fireworks like above for the fourth of july. awesome. thank you, scott thank you
Congratulations! I’ve really enjoyed reading it.
Hey! I thought you said no fireworks! π
HOOORAY!!!!! happy 1000 pages of dreamland everyone π
There are going to be six books total. The FAQ says so. So it seems that we have passed the half way mark not too long ago. But we still have a few more years!
Each book seems to be between 250 and 300 pages, so the fourth book is almost done, I think (in terms of pages; I know the fourth book won’t be released the day that the last page is released).
WOW! Here at night and the fireworks look awesome!
Love the comic, and here’s to the next 1000 pages! π
Congrats on 1000!!
LOVE the fireworks. Wish I could have been to the show that ended with that finale. π
It took me nine hours to read from beginning to end! I am very impressed by not only the aspct of preserving pruity in your comic’s approach to revealing a theme/ twist, but also quite the amount of fan fare I’ve realised you’ve surmounted in the development of such a wise investment of your time!
I started reading this saturday night, and well I am very much anxious for the next page as the readers above me are; CONGRATULATIONS for your efforts Scott!- not to forget your Team of animation sculptors and supporters who’ve been rarely recognized for helping you get your momentum to pace!
Good night all and God Bless!
Aidan, your avatar looks like what Kiwi would look like if she suddenly saw fireworks in her airspace!
Wow. Those are some AWESOME fireworks!
Now if we could only have timed it so they went off as Nicodemus was flying over the city …
π
Congrats on 1000 pages! I have greatly enjoyed the comic, and dread the eventual end of it. Your goal has been to create a interesting, entertaing family friendly story and I think you have done very, very good with that. Can’t wait to read more!
I refer to Scott’s reply to Kitten a few posts above. (Hopefully I do this coding right, since I can’t edit my posts….)
Okay, so I totally biffed on that one.
Hoozah!!
Were you going for tendinitis or carpel tunnels?
*1812; I apologize, but the music major in me couldn’t let that one go by without correction
That and a slight knowledge of history, also
squee! i love the fireworks π
Congratulations. And thank you for sharing your awesome talent. And thanks to your wife and family for sharing you, and to your supporting artist and designers for their help as well. Looking forward to many, many more pages! And so is “the Boss” (see avatar), she helps me read these pages every day. Also tries to help me type. π
1000 pages!!!
*loves the fireworks*
YAY!!!
Congrats. I love the comic, appreciate how clean it is, and am very glad that it’s been so consistent (seeing update frequencies diminish and going on hiatus really stinks). You’re the best. Keep up the good work.
Just go more generic and say RSI (repetitive stress injury).
There are 4 books (including the as yet unpublished one we are currently reading) so far. There will be 6 books total when the series is finished.
1000 pages, amazing. And we’ve all come to care about these characters so much. May the next 1000 go as smoothly, (or BETTER!) than the first.
Dude! Are you saying we’re getting old?!? Ya I guess we are. π
point is, it should be on the site… I follow dozens of webcomics, can’t go around saving vote links for each too.
But the books seem to be getting longer, which is not unusual…
Aw, no fanfare or fireworks? Bah! We’ll have to make do with virtual ones! π
*Lets off fireworks in a dazzling display that lights up to read ‘Congratulations on 1000 pages!’ * *Streams of confetti flitter down to land on the ground as a band marches underneath the colourful rain playing fittingly celebratory tunes*
Congratulations Scott!!! π π
Why not?
π
Because I don’t have TDLC bookmarked. I just have the RSS feed. I barely use bookmarks for my webcomics; just feeds.
Yeah, I’m the same way; actually. But … inevitably someone mentions the voting just about every day in the comments, so as soon as I’m reminded, I go to my bookmarked link to the voting page and vote.
And lately I’ve been trying to put the link in the comments each day myself, to help others get there. Scott doesn’t seem to want to put the voting link up permanently, and I respect his decision; so, like any good family, we’ll work around him “for his own good”.
ok ok I know I’m a bit late with the congrats but I think it’s awesome! i’ve was introduced to dreamland about 2.5 years ago from a friend of mine. I don’t do well with reading daily cause I don’t do well with suspense haha so i save it up and read it all at the end of the week. usually on sunday. Hence my getting around to the posting of the congrats today. On a side note maybe as an incentive you could put the letters that every one missed in the book once it’s printed! I’m just saying.
CONGRATS ON THE 1K pages!!! you do a wonderful job.
Happeh 1000th page Scott :).I’ll remain your reader till the very end of The Dreamland Chronicles. You rock \m/.
uff.
Congrats on a thousand pages, from 2 years in the future.
