We, your most gracious and humble Lo-Ku Masters, are very proud to announce that we have achieved 100 LO-KU!  (Note: Guest LO-KU were not included in this count, because that would be cheating, and most dishonorable!)

Now that we have created a reputable archive of webcomics for the masses to enjoy, we have decided to only publish LO-KU on weekdays (still at 12:00am CST) from now on, leaving the weekends free for you to ponder the grandiosity of existence and perform acts of supreme charity for the less fortunate.

But keep a watchful eye on LO-KU.com, because you never know when a weekend surprise may show up unexpectedly and unlock the mysteries of the universe.  You probably don’t want to miss that.

To achieve that end, we have added a “Like” button to all LO-KU posts, so that you may show general approval, just as you would on a certain social networking site that rhymes with “Shmaceshmook”

So go, our children of the night!  Like!  Like your fuckin’ asses off!

But wipe away those woeful tears, Lo-Ku faithful, for we have returned!  From now on, the Lo-Ku will be plentiful and punctual, so stick with us!

P.S. Did we mention we have a Store now?

As you may have extrapolated from the title of this post, the FAQ section is now up and running!  Did that many people really ask all those questions?  Frequently, no less?  Well… no, not frequently.  Not at all, to be perfectly frank.  But hey, sometimes you’ve got to anticipate Q’s that may, at some point in time, be A’d… F.  Man, this post is getting really stupid…

FAQ section!  Check it out!

Things are growing by leaps and bounds here at Lo-Ku.com, so I just wanted to check in to fill you in on a few of the recent updates, in case you hadn’t noticed them yet!

- “Spread Enlightenment”:  Using the links located below every comic, you can spread the word of LO-KU to friends and strangers alike!  Share your favorite comics (please!) using Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit, del.icio.us, Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace!  Every time you share LO-KU with a friend, it helps us immensely, and totally increases your karma!  It’s a win-win situation!

- About section: There is now an About page for those of you wondering about the humble origins of LO-KU, and especially for those of you asking yourselves, “What the hell is a LO-KU?”

- Archive page:  There is also an Archive page for you to navigate, so that you may explore lands previously traversed on the LO-KU journey.  Remember, you can also use the navigation arrows underneath the comic to go all the way back to the beginning, and work your way forward!  It’s fan-tastic!

- Contact page: You can now contact Thomas or myself at our shiney new Lo-Ku-related email address: LoKuMasters@gmail.com.  Please contact us.  Please… we’re… we’re so very lonely.

I should also mention that for the time being, we are posting new LO-KU practically every day, in an effort to build a sensible archive and to drum up interest in the project.  Soon, we will decide exactly when and how often new comics will be added, but for now, it’s a deluge!  So check back often, or better yet, subscribe to the feed so you don’t miss a thing!

That’s it for now, but stick around because there’s a lot more on the way!  Thanks for visiting LO-KU, may your path be an absurd one!

And yes, I do mean “friends” literally, because chances are, if you’re reading this, you were probably sent here directly by Thomas or myself.  And that’s okay!

Lo-Ku.com is still very much in its infancy, but we have already made some major upgrades to the original site.  Two main new features that you will notice are the addition of an RSS feed, and the ability to leave comments!  This works out well for us, because we are desperately seeking feedback, both on the comics and the site, so please, let us know what you think!

Also updated is the “About” section, where you will be able to learn the mystical origins of the Lo-Ku.  Coming soon is a “FAQ” page (as soon as someone asks us questions… frequently…) and a “Contact” page, with many more updates on the way.

There’s a lot in store for you here at Lo-Ku.com, so keep your eyes… open.

-Daniel
