Odyssey, ya see?

Page 4-26 is finally up and our grand adventure is almost underway!

Sorry that these have been taking so long to roll out as of late! Life got a little hectic again and I had some commissions to work on, plus with the end of the year looming, the job situation has changed again, so I’ve had less time to do comic things. Them’s the breaks, though 🤷‍♂️

Page 4-27 will be worked on once I get through the next couple of commissions!

Use the Force…or something?

Page 4-24 went live yesterday and with it, Elliott secures a new weapon: Vermilion! Admittedly, it’ll be some time before we really get to see it in action but I’m excited to see what sorts of insanity he’ll pull off with it.

4-25 is currently in production and will go up when it’s ready. The art for it is about halfway done.

Toyland, Toyland

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.

The longest drought in a while

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 🙏❤️

Ready? Say “Fuzzy Pickles!”

4-22 is up, and we have a visitor! Can’t hold the cameraman up too long. He has psychic adventurers to document.

ETA on 4-23 is in the air at the moment as I have some things to take care of, but I’ll keep you all posted.

I should probably also take this time to announce that unlike previous issues, this one is going to run a little bit longer than before. If you recall, the plan was originally that Issue 3 would be 24 pages long. Then rewriting the issue for pacing led to making Issue 3 run for about 36 pages. Then that went bust and I split the chapter into Issues 3 and 4. We accomplished everything we wanted to do in Issue 3 in 24 pages, but didn’t hit that mark for Issue 4. In fact, we overshot it. Issue 4 will actually be 32 pages long! Don’t worry, this time I won’t chicken out and split the issue again. To be honest, that’s not really a feasible solution this time around, especially since I want Issue 5 to cover completely new content.

Work obligations have made getting the comic done a bit rougher than in the past, but we’re gonna make it through this 😤
