Lots of changes

Well, not that much has changed. I moved from Lancaster to Akron, PA back in April (on April Fool's Day no less!). So I've been busy settling into a new home. Anyway, I haven't been drawing comics lately, what with moving and my changing interests. So I've decided to MOVE to a new blog page. Don't worry fans! Tommy's coming with me.

The new blog is called "the Frank Diddly Cartoon Studio". The address is http://frankdiddly.blogspot.com/

The new blog will still have Tommy and include other content by myself (including animation!)as well. The change came about because of my changing interests, and also due to the fact that there is another unrelated blog by the name of http://tommyrobot.blogspot.com/
It's an unintentional coincidence, but one that always bothered me. In fact, since I first drew Tommy back in September 2003, I discovered to my own amusement that several other "Tommy Robots" which include: a Japanese toy, 2 real-life robots (how cool!), and an online children's novel. I figure if there is a copyright issue, there are may parties laying claim to the name. It would be probably be a long and complicated legal battle which would take forever to resolve anyway so I don't intend to stop using my Tommy. My Tommy can peacefully coexist with the other Tommys.

But if the lawyers come knocking, I'll just change the character's name to something else. Hmm... "Robbie" is a nice name for a robot!

Thanks for your time. See ya at the STUDIO!!!
