Welcome to Caffienated Goodness.
Read. Laugh. Love The Muffin.
(From the twisted minds of two 18-year-old college students...and massive amounts of caffeine...and a whole menagerie of cats, dogs, and one evil bunny...)
From the distant past, a great evil is rising from its ancient slumber and threatening the present, casting dark shadows over the realm.
From the present, a strange sorcery has been ressurected, bringing back the 7 homonculi, the 7 Deadly Sins, to spread malice and decay.
The worlds only hope rests on the shoulders of...What?
A prototype reploid and a drunkard alter ego!?
. . .
We're boned.
Updates:
Whenever The Hell We Feel Like It. We're Serious.
ZIGGY ZOGGY ZIGGY ZOGGY OY OY OY!
WE RETURN!
Seriously, for real this time.
I'm graduated from High School, and my college will be online.
Chacho's in summerschool, and will be graduating at the end of that.
What does this mean, o thou helpless fans ask?
It means that now we have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to devote to your random pleasure!
Yes yes, I know, calm down, stop screaming in happiness. We still have other obligations- having to find jobs, work for college, ect. ect., but we'll be able to dedicate much more time to the comic then before.
Until then~

[ 0 ] I Can Has Comic Time Nao?
Both of us here at Caffeinated Goodness, would like to sound off some new tidbits about our Comic Habits.
First off.
See up top? "Updates: Whenever The Hell We Feel Like It"? It's true. We can't stick to a regular time schedule, we just can't. We've seen many comics (Unknown and Very Well Known) go through, maybe 2, 3, or a full month without an update. Shit happens when you are working on a comic. We went through like a whole month not posting a regular comic, but only Fillers, and it was just bad to see that. Sure, it was the Holiday Season, but we couldn't really. This is us when we're making a comic:
Malachite:
COMIC TIME NAO.
Me:
Ok, ok. Hold on, just gotta finish something here.
Me:
*goes offline, bored and unable to do a thing, so I play video games*
-5 Hours Later-
Me:
Yer done?
Malachite:
. . .
Thats basically our habit. I go offline, he works in the comic, but then gets distracted by PSX ISOs (he's currently suckered in by Tomba 2) and a comic pops up....a week later.
So, if you don't see a comic, or maybe even a FILLER, just see the Update tag, and you'll be comforted....slightly.
So, what have we learned?
-We don't stick to weekly schedules.
-We're lazy bastards
So, until then, I leave with this:
Read. Laugh. Love The Muffin.
-Chachoregard
UPDATE:
Thanks to the team at Smackjeeves, we changed the template to a better version of Horror Black. We now has an RSS Feed, so that you can catch up on the comic AS SOON as it's uploaded. It's also more aesthetically pleasing, but we still need the ffin' huge font size.
But anyways...
-END UPDATE-
And Then There Was Two
And I'm back. After the last two weeks of 2007 brought forth angryness, Christmas, Vacation, I was mor eor less....tired.
Then school came again, and I was like "Brargh."
Anyways, The Void is gone. Sadness. But he shall live on...
In my bro's apartment.
Anyhoosen, we are back and we are mid-production right now. This computer HAS Photoshop, and it doesnt go too slow! H00RJAY!
-Until Then,
Chachoregard
And Then There Was One
Erick is temporarily out of commision as he awaits his psychobitch mom getting over her rampage and giving him back The Void (the name of his computer.) So, it seems that the Christmas Megacomics will be a thing entirely of my devising. Be very afraid, mortals, for they shall SUCK, since I have not Erick's expertise at Photoshop. =D ONWARD!

We are Live in 3. . .2. . .1. . .
Tremble in your boots!
Quake in your trousers!
We, Caffienated Goodness, have returned!
Yes, Erick is right- when one goes through so much hard work putting together a good comic- and you know its a good comic when it makes even yourself laugh when you read it- only to have it rejected 5 times even though you edit it again and again and again. . . you just want to scream "MRAWR" and beat the hell out of something. In my case, I beat the hell out of buildings in The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. That was kind of my inspiration for the Dartan Smash filler, but thats another story.
Anyway- We'll be ATTEMPTING to do a weeks worth of updating to get ourselves back up to speed, with the doing of a turkey day comic that will be magically thrust back through time using Smackjeeves wonderous technology, so that it appears on Turkeyday, 2007.
Many thanks to Markusdragon of Mystery Sprite Theater for helping us get through our problem, and I hope y'all go visit his comic.
Enjoy!
~Malachite Dragon
*UPDATE*
Thanks to Erick, we now have the beginnings of a Character page. I'll get to work on little Character buttons and more Character Bio pages so that y'all can come up to date with our beloved character's backstories. Also, for those of you who find our posts hard to read- That will no longer be a problem, my dumb ass finally figured out how to enlarge the text to a more comfortable level, so you wont have to squint until your eyes bleed anymore. I'll teach Erick how to do the same, so you wont have to use a magnifying glass to read his news posts. G'day!
Update!(Erick):
Character Page has been revamped slightly, we has buttons now!
Amazing what half an hour of Photoshop and 10 minutes of HTML coding can do, huh? =D
Offler The Crocodile-Headed God Is Angry
We kinda...stopped production of making any comics, for the sheer fact that 4 perfectly good comics....went over the 500kb Limit.
It is Sadness.
When you see 4 comics be denied because they're like 800kbs or 700kbs, you tend to just shout "Mrawr" and try again.
*TWITCH*
But anyhoo.
We'll TRY to find what we can to compress the fie, or start on a smaller panel template. Either way, it could get us back up again.
Until Then.
Holy Sweet Monkey Jesus!
Yo, Erick here. Here at CG, we pride ourselves into making the best comic that we could possibly make with our hand-Ahhh, screw it. Yes, we got as far as 8 comics. I know, holy crap, huh? We're actually taking this SERIOUSLY. Normally, we don't take projects seriously UNLESS there's a gun over our heads OR Sephiroth is looming over our backs, holding a whip and saying "Work."
But anyways,
Yes, besides all the random stuff, the pop-culture references, the video-game references, and any other references there is actually a PLOT. Oh, yes, THERE IS A PLOT. FEAR IT. Oh, and it is true. I hate Toad. I just do. Do you have ANY idea how annoying to see his little mushroom ass behind me, screaming "Yahoo!" everytime he passes me?! DO YOU?! But I also get my mental rocks off when I hear his scream....Ahhh...
Anyhoo,
Yes, there is a plot. Yes, we'll continue. No promises on keeping Toad un-whaled.
Until then.
HOORAY!
At last!
Caffienated Goodness has come to thy webspace!
Don't worry, we'll be gentle.
I'm Malachite Dragon, one of three authors for this comic. Soon to be comic will be my best friends, Erick and Chad-man.
Erick takes care of the special effects, Chad helps with the randomness, and I assemble the comic itself. That's all there is to it, and We do hope that You'll enjoy coming along our journey with us as we feel our way through making this comic. So sit down, enjoy, prop up your feet, don't mind that my cats decide to curl up in your laps, and enjoy the show!
