Why, hello there!
As is usual of late, I've been very busy both here on the 13 and elsewhere, so I have a whole lot of goodies for you since our last talk. As far as outside the 13, I have actually - oddly enough - gotten a 'job' as a Comic Book Writer for the Examiner Dot Com of all things, so if you get really bored you can check out what I'm writing for that site - for money! Well, theoretically, anyway. Mmm money.
But here, on the other hand, I have plenty of things for you without having to navigate all that far. For one thing, first and foremost I have completed my work on the 1985 Gi Joe roster. Seriously! It's all done, every last Joe and device from that year, all written up for your gaming pleasure regardless of whether you prefer the Classic or Saga version of the game.
With all that done, I've started my work cleaning up the 1986 stuff, and about half of my existing work there has been converted to the new .css format. That just leaves me some all-new entries to write for you, which I'm sure is the reason y'all keep coming back (I'm pretty sure it's not my sparkling personality). As you may have imagined, this isn't all I've been doing here on the 13, hecks no!
I'm also working on the Vintage Age Handbook, trying to tidy that up once and for all. This has involved me 'expanding' the tiny capsule entries I had for the Crusaders, making each hero his or her own page, instead of just lumping them all onto one .asp document. This is coming along quite nicely, now that I've got my hands on the two issues those jokers ever appeared in, and should be done soon.
Furthermore, I've been working on the Twelve, as well. I was going to wait for that series to be done before I did anything with them, in order to avoid having to engage in further updates as the plot unfolds, but... bah. It's been way too long, so I started in on the stuff I can do to date; of course, there's a few folks I simply won't be touching until we see what's what with them.
But so far, I've modernized the three entries from that group I already had done so far, them being Black Widow, Dynamic Man and Master Mind Excello. Furthermore, I have added all new descriptions of both the Phantom Reporter and the Witness, with at least one more to come soon; Mister E is very close to being finalized as I write this. It looks like the Vintage Age thing is nigh current now.
Which will just leave me new people to add here, as well. Mmm new stuff...
What's New?
The Massive Technoholic Conversion Process is still afoot! I've added Bushido, Barricade, Ozone, Windchill, Budo, Payload, the Fridge, the Tomahawk, Claymore, the 1986 Gi Joe Battle Kits, Cross-Country, the L.C.V. Recon Sled, Sci-Fi, the Triple T, Mainframe, the Devilfish, Thunderfist, Mister E, the U.S.S. Flagg, Tommy Lightning, the Tactical Battle Platform, and the Phantom Reporter to the 13!
So see, even with me grinding to get everything spiffy again, I keep making all new goodness for your gaming pleasure. Love me?

Got something to say to Firebomb? Sure, I used to have a Guest Book here that people would love to deface, but I had to take that down and haven't bothered putting up a new one yet. Or a forum or anything snazzy like that. So, since I don't have one of those any more, feel free to drop me an e mail message any time, utilizing this address here: firebomb@technohol.com.
