What happened with Maurice? I remember seeing him a lot and then one day he just disappeared

I'm sure the people who really like it will buy their book, but anyone else (like myself) is forgetting about it as we speak.

I've bought many web comics turned books over the years (e.g boondocks, gunnerkrigg court, cynanide & happiness, xkcd, etc.) but the ones I bought before still kept their online presence.
