Why does SZ art flow across both pages? I set up SZ so that if I ever print a book, the art will flow across both pages in full spread format. I've never really been much of a fan of traditional comic books: ads on every other page, shorthand art crammed into tiny panels, exposition out the wazoo and talking heads that never shut up! I wanted to create something totally different. Huge art, "less is more" and "don't say it, show it" approaches, not too much wordosity, no boring details and lots of characters in compelling situations I can't predict the outcome to before I turn the page. I hope I'm on the right track!

Why is the SZ story so slow? While there's a lot going on, SZ actually reads pretty fast, and my idea was to make SZ feel more like a movie than a comic book. I usually try to not overload the pages to make reading SZ easier while still offering good reread value for hints and clues, easter eggs and other little bonuses. So far, over 20 characters have been introduced, plus there's tons of setups for much bigger payoffs later on. SZ will prolly be about 1280 pages once completed, and while SZ isn't for everyone, I certainly hope you're vibin' on it!

Why does SZ update randomly? Don't you have a buffer? Since I first began SZ, I've tried hard to maintain a buffer, but I've never been able to get more than two page spreads ahead, and when combined with work and life stuff, my buffer never lasts long, no matter how well I manage my time! Also, many pages take much longer to complete than others, and sometimes, some of my best ideas come at the last minute anyway! So all this makes it nearly impossible for me to commit to an official update schedule!

I want extra SZ content. Gimmee gimmee. Tons of behind-the-scenes extras with commentary, old stuff, sneak previews and more more more can be seen for free when you VOTE for SZ regularly. I change these vote incentives every few days, so you'll always see something new. Also, every once in a while, I upload decoy homepages featuring koo random stuff. And every Valentine's Day, for one day only, I do my annual "Sarah Zero Valentine's Day Sex Drive": an all-new nudie pic of Sarah as a voting bribe. That's quite a LOT of extra content!

Is there a SZ Forum? Yes, there actually is, here! I don't have much time to initiate discussion, but I'm always happy to answer questions, offer insight, respond to feedback and just have a good time getting to know you cats better!
