We're back! Christmas has come and gone, the New Year has dawned, and Christmas came and went again (or it did in Russia, at least). Now we present to you the beginning of our first story for the new year and the new decade - The Cult of Meaney by Andrew Taylor.

This is the first story of Andrew's that we've run since the comic launched back in 2007, but Andrew has been a part of the team since the very beginning. Since before the very beginning, in actual fact. This isn't the first story he submitted either, and originally wasn't going to be the first of his stories that we ran. I'm sure his other stories will surface in one form or another.

We're back to a twice-weekly schedule now, so the next page will appear on Friday Tuesday - apparently JjAR asked me to upload the cover today instead of on the 12th, and in the excitement of starting a new story I just... er... uploaded it anyway. Expect an absolute cracker of a story here, and a great, haha, lead-in for things to come. Here's to 2010.
