Also the episodes as they are now aren't fit for printing anyway. They're all optimized for web display, the resolution is too low, and many of them have visible compression artifacts and colour differences. Really, the entire thing would have to be redone from scratch, and that would be an even larger investment with a not necessarily guaranteed return.
This is what I mean when I say 8BT is a dead end for me as a creator. There's no future in it. While other webcomic artists invest years to build and develop their properties into something they can make a part of their on-going careers, I gave you guys nine years of my life to complete a project I knew couldn't go anywhere.

It's also why I get a little annoyed when people accuse me of being selfish or trying to screw the fans or whatever inane things immature children say when they don't get their way.
