A long time...maybe the last time.

I don't know, really. It does really feel like I've run out of things to say, at least in this particular format. And I'm not sure why that is. Perhaps it's because when I first started this blog, I was an editor at Entertainment Weekly, one who spent most if not all of his time disconnected from the internet as a content creator. This was before Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, etc. This was my outlet for opinions I couldn't express in a mass media publication as well as work blogs when I started writing comics on a regular basis.

And then I started writing for EW's in-house blog and got to get some of the rambly off my chest. When I left EW and became a full-time blogger, my life was all about getting paid for stuff I used to write here for free, so I shook my moneymaker where the money was good.

I've spent the better part of the last two years doing that and I think I might've pulled up whatever oil was down there to begin with. Combine that with relatively robust presences on the social-media trifecta I mentioned up top — yeah, I think I might be done. Maybe I'm wrong, and I'll return to this particular format, ready to dig my teeth in and tear a new path.

But I don't think so.

My work leads me to write longer and longer — in comics, novels, and now television — so my play becomes shorter and shorter. Such is the way of things, I suppose.

I may pop in here, every now and again, but I wouldn't count on it. Thanks for stopping by, those of you who still did. If you're looking for more of me, hit me up on Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr. I still sling bullshit there on a regular basis.

Take care.

Ahoy there, Marc!

How are you doing? I hope it is ok if I write this message to you in a comment box.

My name is Timothy Connolly, and I am the editor-in-chief at The Hourly Planet; a webzine based in New York.

The Hourly Planet would very much like to conduct an interview with you, to be published online at our site.

Would that be ok? And if so, may I email you our questions? You can reply to me with your written answers by email. We might have some additional questions too, in response to your first wave of answers. It'll be fun, I promise. It won't be the standard run-of-the-mill questions.

We look forward to hearing from you. And should you ever have the desire to write a rant, or a review, our door is always open for you. We'd be delighted to publish any such articles.

Thanks very much for your time today! Happy new year!
