At last, Page 4-23 has landed and with it comes a new character, Agent Newton! You can learn a little about him on the Characters Page. He certainly has a very interesting idea what constitutes a “toy.”

Fun fact, Newton is actually an older character of mine I thought would slot well into a role at the Astral Conservatory. Unlike Lado, he wasn’t originally designed for Electric Fencer, but another project in which he was actually much younger, so I aged him up for the current story. He’s a bighorn ram with distinguished Xbox uncle energy.

As previously stated, this page will stay up for at least a couple weeks to allow it a chance for proper visibility and to afford me time to complete 4-24.

As you can see, I never got around to updating last week and once again it is Wednesday, my dudes.

I’m really sorry about the lack of story updates this past month. Work has gotten longer and it seems building the tracks as the train is coming down them has absolutely not been a viable strategy. I’ll discuss what this means for Issue 5 once Issue 4 is done (no, the comic isn’t getting cancelled so there are no worries there). For what it’s worth, 4-23 is about 75% of the way done, so I’m aiming to have it up before the weekend. In order to allow time for 4-24 to cook and for 4-23 to have its time in the spotlight, it’ll be up for a couple of weeks.

Once again, I’m really sorry about the slow rollout of recent updates, but for everyone still here reading and waiting patiently—maybe excitedly even—you have my eternal gratitude 🙏❤️

What the title said, basically.

However, all previous engagements I had are now cleared off my plate and things have started to calm down a bit, and as such, 4-23 is currently under production! I’ll aim to have it out by the usual time next week. See you then!

Still trying to get back on track so 4-23 is still on hold. Being forced to rely on capitalism to survive is not it, man 🥲
