just keep a steady pace and you should be caught up in at most a week
I did it in about a weekend though, had more time
[QUOTE=Sardonus;37917049]so uhh
I'm still trying to get into this comic
why's there such an insane amount of content
I feel I'll never be up to catch up to all the canon, I'm only midway though like Act 2 here, this shit is impressive[/QUOTE]
I shall respond to all of that
1. Welcome to homestuck.
2. Hussie's been updating constantly for over 3 years.
3. Don't worry, it doesn't actually take forever to read. But glad to see you're enjoying it.
Oh, also, it would be most prudent to read problem sleuth. Much easier to get into and MUCH MUCH shorter. Not to mention you'll laugh at more oof the jokes in Homestuck.
Don't worry, it's not like you have some sort of masked murderer telling you to hurry up while threatening you with a boxcutter. I like to take my time to read things too, it probably took me about a month or two to catch up when I first started reading, and it was only up to some point in Act 4, if I can remember correctly.
[sp]Now hurry up and read it before I slit your throat.[/sp]

I'll respond with thanks.
This seems like a good comic. I started a couple weeks ago, then kinda lost my place and then it took forever to find it again.
Does Mister Hussie do anything else with his life other than Homestuck? Cause the amount of content seems like he literally never sleeps or eats

afaik it's his main source of income now

I'm pretty sure that's all he does at the moment. He does do Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff, but they are pretty much tied into Homestuck anyways. I [I]think[/I] he's going to help write for the Homestuck video game though once this is over though.

Where's all the money come from though? Books? T-shirts?
how could you make books of homestuck it's so very online

He literally did operate like this for a long time, still nearly does so but not quite.

He manually makes everything better for book form

Don't worry, not plowing through it on your first attempt is pretty normal for the experience.
Also, no Hussie pretty much does homestuck (and sweet bro and hella Jeff) and that's it. And apparently is quite enough to make a living off of.
We are also certain Hussie has accumulated several months worth of lost sleep, and if you look at photos of him, it is fairly apparent eating isn't very high up on his priority list.... (hes really fucking skinny)

Apparently the T-Shirts and Hoodies sell like fucking hotcakes.

Yeah he is slowly churning out the Homestuck books, they're pretty neat.
I imagine most of the money comes from selling merch, and the rest from ads.

there's so much about this I don't know
but I'm really liking this.
I think my favorite so far is Dave, which given from the amount of fan art I've seen is pretty par for the course?

So long as you don't venture too far into tumblr, yes.

He actually stopped having the hilariously awful ads a couple of months ago

Actually, according to the interview by Bryan Lee O'Malley, the ads provide the smallest income nowadays.

Oh, also sardonus, listen to 'the Protomen'
We often tangent off into talking about them, so you should probably be in the loop with that.

oh yeah no I've seen some shit man
for a while I thought this comic was nothing but people fucking
there's actually very little fucking so far
it's just a little boy running around his room for like 6 months, then the earth explodes
[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;37917269]He actually stopped having the hilariously awful ads a couple of months ago[/QUOTE]
He still has the really bad side ones
But yeah I imagine the big majority of cash comes from merch. The ads are cheap. I imagine a lot of people that read Homestuck also have some sort of adblock anyway
I keep it off for mspa because I'm a nice guy who's cool and doesn't do drugs.
I've seen a bunch of people at cons wearing the shirt Dave wears, with the little record and the red sleeves
I kinda want to buy that in real life
I should support this man who's given me such joy
I kept it off for MSPA because the ads were hilarious
[I]Wanna become a raper?[/I]

There's actually 2 stores. What Pumpkin? And Topatoco.
The one you're looking for is Topatoco.

the Sweet Bro ones are funny but I like the record one since it's actually pretty cool looking, as well as subtle
no one except me and a few friends will probably get it
