Whether or not TNT can or would give us another plot during Christmas doesn't matter. I personally think they wouldn't as they (and us) have had such a huge year of plots and events.
The comic in question is not a plot comic. It is from the Islandberry Cereal promotional site. You can access it from Stuff (on sidebar) and click the Islandberry Crunch icon. Within that site is the comic and other links.
It has been there for a year (there abouts) and you could get a free feed of cereal for your pets once a day. That particular event was taken off in July (possibly due to the end of the promotion).
It would have made a great 'Indiana Jones - esq" type of plot. But for now it is just a promotional comic.

Heh, it's cute though, I hadn't seen it yet. A Geraptiku plot would be cute, poor neglected mini-worlds.

Woe Plot Prizes to be handed out before december 11th
Why?
A new plot will start and it last for a while. In short it will be a long plot.
This is from a source who got a source at TNT.

That sounds to me far too much like "a friend of a friend of mine said that..." I don't hold it with much heed until I see it myself.

I completely agree. Plus I can't see enough people to fully man a plot (which would need constant checking for bugs and updating as well as monitoring which accounts are doing what etc.) to remain at work during the holiday season when most normal people are at work parties and taking time off to spend with their families.

If there IS a new plot coming, I doubt it will be until after Christmas. There's just not enough time until then to make it work.
They were talking about another comic, not flash if i remember correctly, that if you viewed it all the way, 1000nps pop up on your acc, but just once.
I remember doing this a LONG (!!!) time ago.
this is brand new tho, and don't forget that jake is not only the cereal guy, but also the star of a game, caves and corridors: mystery island
http://www.neopets.com/games/play.phtml?game_id=627
The game was released before the whole cereal thingy so...
i find it nice that they refresh this character, tho, but not before they hand out ToW prizes... but that's just me

Bloody hell I hope this is not true. -.- I don't want a new plot so soon! I need a break in between plots to focus on making NP (and doing other things besides Neopets >.> ) Not to mention I was hoping to train a BD pet before the next plot in case of fighting, and I don't even have that pet yet. Too many plots close together and I'm gonna burn out!

It would suprise me it we got our prizes and a new plot would start so soon. TNT isn't really known for being fast with these sort of things.
Where did you hear this, if I may ask?

From December 20 news (2005):
Jake has just made a fascinating discovery... Caves & Corridors: Mystery Island! Can you help him on his quest to find the golden idol?
From January 19th News:
If your Neopet is tired of eating free omelettes every day, check out our Cereal Adventure Kitchen and feed them a bowl of Neopets' own Neopets® Islandberry Crunch™ Cereal. Click here for details. Check your local grocers for the "real" thing. It's being shipped now!!
The game was only released a month before the cereal promotion. It was no co-incidence that TNT used the same character - it seems the character was thought out and was deliberatley used for the cereal promotion.
The cereal site was bigger - you could navigate through it with arrows and also get free cereal once a day for your pet. Now that the free cereal has gone (finished in July) the cereal site is much smaller.
The 1000 nps is still available. Go to Stuff (on sidebar) and click on the Islandberry Crunch icon. The first screen that pops up is Jake and a "Did you know?" stone tablet. Click on the arrows to read through it, at the end you will get 1000 nps. It is only available the first time you do it. It is not a comic, but random facts.

I'm sure by now they could have something to put news up automatically if they can't be there.
It could also just sit there for quite a while since we found it early, who says they have to start it before christmas?

I wish it was a plot, it could be but who knows! Looks cool though, like a western movie!

Oooooooo. Geraptiku! My favorite mini-world! I love island stuffs. I'd be feeling bitter-sweet if this was a plot. Sweet because, well IT'S A PLOT! But bitter because I haven't had time to train my pets! And it stars another famous pet. Poor reptillian pets. And Korbats.
