Cyanide and Happiness - Other Explosm Content

Other Explosm Content

• Since 2006, there have been a total of 32 Flash "shorts" done by the site administrators, the newest being named "Dogs". They follow the same theme as the Cyanide & Happiness comics and are drawn in the same style. The characters are, in most instances, voiced by the webmasters themselves. Chase Suddarth contributes occasionally to the shorts.
• The site additionally hosts Joe Zombie, a Flash series by Rob. He recently stated he will not be releasing the sequel Joe Zombie 7, however he edited the post stating that it was a joke. It is not currently known if Rob has plans to release it or not. Flash work by Dave is also featured on the site, and also 16 videos being the last "Ted Bear".
• Humor articles by all four administrators are regularly featured on the site, with work by Kris, Matt, and Dave featured heavily. The newest being "Die Romantic- A Look At Aiden" by Dave, who scathingly critiques goth punk band Aiden.
• Explosm also has a merchandise store, from which fans can purchase a variety of Cyanide & Happiness T-shirt designs, plushies, posters, and comic prints.
• Three books have been released by Rob, Kris, Matt, and Dave containing the first and second volumes of Cyanide & Happiness comics, each one contains 120 of their favorite comics, and 30 new comics. The third featured many depressing comics, including the ones featured on the site.
• On the forums there was an interactive story in which users could suggest what the main character did. This was created in 2007, with the first comic, "My Magical Skiing Adventure," about a man finding two warring societies inside Mt. Everest. However, due to a site crash, the story (as well as three others) was deleted, though the original has since been partially recovered at Explosm sister site StoryDump. A new one was created in late 2007. This was called "Working on the space station: Day 1," and was created by Rob. This turned out to be very successful in the eyes of the Explosm team and future "Interactive Stories" are planned.
• Cyanide & Happiness has released an app for mobile devices that allows caching of viewed images for offline viewing, as well as a random button. The app is $0.99 and can be obtained through the App Store, Android market, or Windows Marketplace, and is currently in version 1.2. Another, 'lite; version of the app allows users to view only the 30 most recent comics and shorts, which can be obtained at the App Store at no cost, and is currently at version 1.0.
• An "Untitled Cyanide and Happiness Project" is in the works at Comedy Central. The animated show, being produced and created by Kristipher Wilson, Robert DenBleyker, David McElfatrick, and Matthew Melvin, will be 30 minutes long.
• In December 2011, Rob posted in the Explosm Forums that Joe Zombie 7's storyline is "figured out" and has not been worked on due to the "lack of time to work on it." He concludes his post stating that the 7th and final episode "will come out eventually."
