Page 4-36 has dropped and at long last, we’ve reached the conclusion of Issue 4! Andrew and Sunday’s profiles in the Characters Page have been updated to reflect new developments—the archbishop might not be such a good dude after all 😬 Will our heroes rescue Andrew in time?
Once again, I’d like to give generous thanks to everyone who’s read the story so far. Whether it’s a hundred or a handful of you, sharing Electric Fencer with you all has been such a pleasure. As previously stated, the comic will be taking a three-month hiatus to get some buffer work done on the next issue, but the site won’t be going dark. I’ll post things here and there to keep things interesting. We’ll be covering some ground with a new set of characters in the next issue, so look forward to that.
Page 4-32 has just pulled into the station, and as it departs, so do our heroes! They’re about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
We’re down to the final four pages of Issue 4! And yes, the FINAL four. I have no intention of extending this any further because we’ve got other stories and material to cover. Let’s end this one with a bang!
Back for 2025, I’ve got Electric Fencer Valentines! Whether you’re bringing a little thunder to your day, want to be cooler than cool, or turn up the heat with some fiery romance, they’re perfect for wowing that special guy or gal.
For the first time in what feels like forever, we’ve got a page out on time. Page 4-30 has arrived! Only six pages to go! The Alexanders seem to be healing, although Ronan and Liz still have a bit of a bone to pick with each other. Maybe we’ll see a resolution to that soon?
Page 4-28 is up, and it looks like things are starting to heal for our family. And not a moment too soon, as their train will be arriving shortly! We also get a look at Tim, another new (relatively minor) character. He’s Magnus and Mackenzie’s younger brother, and you can learn a little more about him on the Characters page.
Depending on how things go, this may or may not be the last page of 2024. That said, there have been a couple of updates:
So…there has been another extension. Issue 4 will not end on 32 pages, but rather 36. The dreaded number that caused me to split the originally larger Issue 3 into the current Issues 3 and 4. However, it’s for a good reason. Upon speaking with my fellow writers and my beta readers, the added pages do serve up some needed exposition going into Issue 5, and being that we’re this close to the previously amended end goal of 32 pages, I don’t mind adding a few more on to fully flesh things out.
However, what this also means is that because of how long Issue 4 has been running and how 2024 has just been a complete and utter mess for getting literally anything done through all of getting COVID, going to Japan, getting married, changing jobs three times, and other personal escapades that really have no place being discussed here, once Issue 4 is complete, Electric Fencer will take a 3-month hiatus from posting following the upload of Page 4-36. Whenever that may be, I’m not terribly sure at the moment, but I’m feeling a slight bit of burnout from this year just being as bonkers as it was, and as much as I love Electric Fencer, I don’t want it to die from a lack of self care.
So there’s your warning. We’ll keep things running as they have been for the last few months up until 4-36, and then we’ll take a break from posting to work on pages in the background without significant time pressure.
