So this was a nice surprise when I fired up my RSS reader this morning. Kukuburi, Ramon Perez's dreamlike adventure comic updated for the first time in well over a year.

I have a soft spot for all the comics to come out of the Transmission X studio (including Sin Titulo and The Abominable Charles Christopher), but Kukuburi has always been the Pokey Little Puppy of the group. The infrequent updates have been particularly damning because it's such a visual story. By the time I see a new page, I've forgotten Nadia's trek through Perez's candy-colored fantasy world. I've forgotten her skull-faced nemesis and why he pursues her. I've forgotten (I'm ashamed to admit) La Brigade du Chapeau and their haberdasher conspiracy. Each update requires an archive binge, and my heart has already been toyed with so many times.

So I'm going to wait until I know Kukiburi is back for good before diving back into old comics. But Perez swears the next update is Wednesday. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
