As promised in my first blog post, I’m going to highlight the work of some folks I’ve met while doing time on the Sherpa page. Today’s feature: The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn.
Scott was one of the first Sherpa folks I talked to on a regular basis other than “hey, I like your comic strip.” Since then his strip has taken off and will someday rule the world by force. That’s why I hate him so much. He blinds me with jealous rage. Don’t tell him I said that.
See more of The Argyle Sweater on Gocomics.com or at his official site: www.theargylesweater.com
Hilburns feature is good reading. Congratulations on Pinkertons move Wit I look forward to seeing good things happening for your strip.
Weird. I just tried to submit a comment, but nothing happened. Anyhow, thanks for the highlight, Mike. And thanks for the compliment MJ.
I can’t wait to add Pinkerton to my MyComicsPage subscription! Congratulations again on the move over.
Thanks guys. I’m pretty happy about the move. It’s been a while in the making.
Scott, Thanks for the heads up on comment problem. I think I fixed it.

I think doing a week of one-off reruns to get people acquainted to the strip and characters would be great. Then you can sync up the strip on both sites after that.
I guess the main argument for staggering the strips is that you could say that Pinkerton has the “newest” strips, that’s an additional hook to your own site. I remember Jarrett did that with Mandy. Fresh strips on his site, and the next day they’d be on Sherpa. It’s a not a bad idea but I think it would be a huge pain. I don’t how much of a benefit you’d get from it, maybe a lot, but I don’t know if it’s worth the inconvenience of staggering them. If it were me, I’d sync up the strips just to keep things simple.
I know I’ll view Pinkerton on your site most of the time because of the banter and other things you post. That’s just me.
Best of luck with the GoComics launch. Pinkerton is gonna take it by storm.
I posted the above comment in the wrong section. Smooooth.
As long as I’m here: Read The Argyle Sweater, people.
