It's essentially an [[OrphanedSeries abandoned comic comic]] now, after the author said that he wanted to draw something more challenging than circles to improve his art skills.
Added DiffLines:
* OrphanedSeries: It hasn't been updated since 2010, and the artist outright said that he doesn't plan to continue it. This leaves most of the plot threads (Asteroid following Earth around, Mercury's plot against Mars, Earth's continuing unhappiness, Nix's struggles with Pluto..) permanently unresolved.

Meanwhile, Nix is dealing with Pluto's 'issues' after his demotion the way a supportive moon should... which means, essentially, trying to find someone, ''anyone'' else who'll let him tag along with them. And oh yeah, Mercury's planning to coup, the dwarf planets want more respect, Comet is stopping by from Andromeda... Maybe Earth has a bit more to pay attention to than he's giving credit to.
