On March 22, 2004, Josh Phillips announced that Avalon was going on indefinite hiatus, and that he was going to start a new web comic called Two Eighty. This comic only had three actual comics posted before joining its predecessor in a long-term unscheduled hiatus.
On August 24, 2004, Josh Phillips announced that he was officially ending Avalon, and posted a summary of the story's conclusion.
The strip focuses on a group of high school students, and while it originally started out as a mostly-storyless gag strip, it evolved into a coherent, long-term story with realistic characters.
In 2002, Avalon won the "Best Romantic Comic" award from the Web Cartoonists’ Choice Awards.
