Eight Year Anniversary
Hey, Guildies! Normally, on Labor Day, we’d be celebrating our anniversary as a comic by posting a cover to Adventurer’s Illustrated. But we didn’t want to interrupt the chapter in progress, so here we are in between chapters with this tribute to all the peeps who worked on the comic: Me, T, John, Jason, and of course… Erica.
Thank you all for reading us all the way to the end. We hope it’ll make you happy.
Artice, not article?
Well, we’re into the holidays, so that’s the reason for no-L.

This is a really good one.
I bow down to you.
This may have been asked before, but are Jason and John twins?
Yes. Yes we are.
Yup!
Identical, too!
Creators do their best now and are preparing the ending. Please wait warmly until it is ready.
*plays the PCB title theme*
Do we get new avatars nao?
No? Okay then!
Wanna swap? :)
Sure, why not?
For the benefit of Mr. Kahn, there will be some fruit picked on your ‘puter screen
Ms. Henderson will sure be there; T Campbell – he looks quite scared, what a scene!
Over men (the Waltrips) leaves and apples, lastly climbing even one step higher
In this way Mr. K endangers his friend!
Singing this on the original tune really made my day!
BREAKING NEWS: Apple observed dropping to the ground in close proximity to progenitor tree.
Someone’s gonna get newton’d on the noggin’.
I am not sure you appreciate the gravity of this situation!
It’s life, adventurers. But not as we know it.
Yes all the yes
Erica making friends with a squirrel, how awesome!
I know that the headline is actually a joke.
But the teenage me would’ve actually wanted to know that. Because he wanted to be a ninja.
Phil: How often do people Captain Kirk scream your last name? …sorry if I’m asking something you’re horribly sick of.
More than I’d like, that’s for sure.
I know it sounds corny, but I think is my favorite issue of Adventurers Illustrated. :)
Are you folks drawn to scale in this scene? If so, it looks like the Waltrip Brothers and T are some tall guys!
Also…dodge, Phil, dodge! Apple incoming!
We are pretty tall… not quite basketball-player scale, but on the tall side.
When the apple hits Phil, T’s ladder topples, depositing him in the Waltrips’ basket, which sends them sprawling, the rightmost twin hitting Erica’s basket, freaking out the squirrel, which then launches itself at Erica.
It’s like a Rube Goldberg device of amusing injuries.
If life was so great, there would not be drugs, booze, gambling, games… web comics, and everything else we have done since the beginning of time to distract ourselves from our lives.
Its why every religion tells you the Afterlife is great (you will be rewarded for putting up with the suck of life), but to kill yourself is a sin – otherwise if you could just die and go to paradise and get out of this life, they know perfectly well many people would. This has always been true.
Does someone need a hug?
I’m gonna be really sad when this is over. Easily one of my favorite finished web-comics, up there with Dr. McNinja.
Life? No, no, no. Everyone knows that family is the greatest adventure of OH NO THE GROUND
+1
like the squirrel girl ref there. eye see that.
What is in the future for y’all?
World of Warcraft. Lots of World of Warcraft, likely.
It will be some time until I do my next comic project unless people are willing to Patreon up more Guilded Age comics. Something we’ll get to considering after it’s over.
How did you get so good at kick-ass female characters?
We tried writing them as individuals with feelings, motivations, objectives, flaws, and agency.
When you take over the world, which country will you rule from?
