Hey everyone, we hope you’re all enjoying the ever-loving fuck outta Hiveswap, because god knows we are! However, in the unimaginable hype of Hiveswap finally being released, you may not have realized that today is also the comic’s ANNIVERSARY! Can you believe WP went and stole our holiday?? (Way to make it about us, I know.)

We could use the somewhat more compatible date of April 16th, the anniversary of the team itself, but that’s dangerously close to yet another signifcant date in this hellish memescape our calendars have become. There’s something magic about meme numbers, a power we may never truly understand.



Anyway, thanks to convivencia for this wonderful anniversary banner. I know it’s kinda small beans at the moment, but we just wanted to give you all an update on what’s goin’ down in the AO Meme Dungeons right now:

We do plan to release a smaller update tomorrow, weather permitting…(one of our artists had to evacuate Hurricane Irma, but don’t worry, they’re alright now). It’s pretty light on dialogue, but hey, an upd8’s an upd8. So if you’re not busy trying to stay alive in the seedy Alternian underbelly, give it a read!

Hopefully we will continue to update every week and a half, at least until Joy’s schedule levels out from Total Anarchy. Send her some love, because god knows she needs some.

Oh, and one last thing. One of our most dope-ass musicians, the incredibly talented dbnet18, made a song to commemorate the anniversary! You can listen to it here!

But all that said, we hope you all enjoy Hiveswap and all the community craziness that is bound to come with it. Grab your troll horns and face paint, because this is going to be a hell of a ride.
