[UPDATE january 27 2012]
first off apologies on no updates, and no update as to why…
january was a bit of a crazy month, moved studios after 6 years in the same spot, then to that during the move – what i thought was a cold, turned into a very unpleasant throat infection that lasted almost two weeks. luckily a visit to the ER at one point gave me a good dose of antibiotics and perkasets for the pain. the infection put me out of commission for over a week though try as hard as i might to work, it was an uphill battle. this in turn created a domino effect on my workload – so now i’m playing catch up.
hence the lack of kukuburi.
there’s one sitting here in the wings 80% done – so once i get back on top of my schedule in the coming weeks, kukuburi will be the first things i set back in motion as soon as my clients are appeased and happy.
thanks for your patience everyone.
much love,
ramon.
[end of UPDATE shenanigans]
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
arriving a bit late here due recuperating from a nasty flu and well, the studio i share is moving. i really should have coordinated the move and my return a bit better… but it kinda happened after i made the announcement. meh, whadda gonna do.
so, move permitting, more kukuburi thursday!
other announcements… for those who may be curious;
next week, the 18th, sees the full release of TALE OF SAND, the book that i worked on over the past summer!
the next project to pleasurably to eat up my life will be an adaptation of JOHN CARTER: THE GODS OF MARS for marvel comics with writer sam humphries!
and finally, for those ultimately curious about RAID, our studio and our new space; check out our new Facebook page!
till the next page…





This is my second favourite Kuki page ever. Love the nomming!
And I’ve ordered your Tale of Sand (thanks to Amazon for shipping internationally!)
Please say you plan to publish Kukuburi, , , Please! It would be the ultimate to have a book to pour over and study all the little details that make this such a wonderful GN.
Oh, my… The littlest Mip seems to be pretty much all MOUTH! I do notice that he (?) doesn’t seem to be swallowing, however, which is probably just as well. We do know where those have been…
Happy, happy, happy. Patience is rewarded.
Yay! Heroes! :D
I loved todays page!
Hatmageddon! :D
Win!
Is that a bubble gum gun ?!
AWESOME!
Yay, my copy of Tale of Sand arrived today – fantastic object, someone’s done a great job on the binding, quality of paper etc – I particularly like the bookmark band thingy. Lookng forward to reading it. AND to more Kukuburi when you get the chance…
I have been waiting so long for Kukuburi’s return! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Just wondering when the next one will be coming up?
well, on thursday …
;-)
Well this is awkward. Here I am on Friday and no new posts.
Ramon? You have some ’splainin to do.
Yeah, you get on top of those client projects Ramon! Last thing any of us needs is to hear from you in a few weeks saying you had to stop eating since your clients reduced your pay for being late on their projects because you put your webcomic first XD
I do hope you get caught up quickly though C: And no more getting sick! Not allowed >:C
It wouldn’t be Kukuburi if things went smooth for Ramon. Getting paid is > free awesome web comic though. Bill collectors don’t really take the “I would have money but these total strangers really like my web comic.” as payment.
Sucks about getting sick, hope you get caught up on your work in a timely manner, and I hope your clients understand. Love the comic, waited all this time for more, what is a few more weeks.
I’ve noticed comic creators tend to get sick right when they get a break – christmas vacation, a short lull between projects, etc. I’m wondering if that’s bound to happen because of the sheer effort you guys put in – say 5 months of working at a breakneck pace and your worn out body succumbs to the infection right when it’s weakest in the calm after the storm. I know I got sick from the exhaustion at the end of all my college semesters. So don’t feel distraught over it – obviously you need time to recover from the workload. Come back when you can!
Feel better soon and don’t worry about us – we’re ok waiting. It’s totally worth it : )
Ramon, You need to stop worrying about your fanbase so much. Each of us loves your comic to bits, and is more than prepared to wait for updates, however long they take for whatever reason. Good luck getting better and catching up to your schedule!
I always check back every week Ramon, just as I did during the year hiatus, and if there’s updates it’s awesome! And if not, well then I shrug it off and check the next week. Hope everything is well!
Damnit Ramone!
Quit being so popular as an artist. I wish there was a way you could devote the amount of attention to Kuku as you do to paid jobs so we could see some progress.
Seriously, if you ever finish Kuku and publish, I’ll be the first in line to buy a hard copy.
HAH – thank you kurt! i’ll do my best… but i do plan on finishing kuku, hopefully sooner than later. putting forth a plan in action to make that happen.
Well I’m just glad you’re not pulling a Tessa Stone on us. However long the wait, I’m sure the outcome will be worth it. Thanks for everything you do!
Does ANYONE know what happened there? I havent been able to figure it out.
