Page 4-25 went live, and Lee gets a new weapon of her own as well! Ronan also gets one, I suppose. He’s not very self-aware.
Page 4-26 is currently being worked on!
Even Electric Fencer Is Not Immune
Tag: Elliott
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.
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 😤
Get you someone who looks at you like
4-19 is up and we have a new character, Lado! You can learn more about him on the Characters Page. He’s actually a character I developed for a much older iteration of the comic and at one point dropped wholesale due to the sheer number of characters in the traveling party at the time. I figured we needed some more members of the Astral Conservatory to work with, so why not give an old friend his job back? Whaddup, Agent L-Deezy?! Glad to have you aboard once again.
4-20 (yes blaze it ha ha very funny moving on) is in the pipeline and will be out next week, barring any unforeseen outages. I had Techokami look under the hood and we’re hoping the problem is at the very least contained for now.
Site Troubles
Had some issues with the site the last week or so and as such, I actually WASN’T able to get 4-18 up like I planned. But it’s up now.
Since the comic wasn’t up as scheduled, I’m going to let the new page have a little time in the spotlight and push 4-19 to next Wednesday. See you then!
Sort of a Two-fer?
Page 4-17 is now up, but also, I completely forgot to post that Page 4-16 also went up last week 😬
4-18 will be going up next week, though I do have a bit of frustrating news to share…There may or may not be a hiatus in the coming weeks due to how bad this summer has been for comic creation. I’ll try to stave it off for as long as I can, and even try to get multiple pages done to have a steady stream of content. Apologies in advance!
I’ve taken on a lot of new responsibilities at work, so this aspect of my life has taken something of a hit, but we’ll see things through.
Vacation…I mean…*RESCUE MISSION* Planning
Page 4-15 is up and it seems like Renée has other ideas as to what’ll be happening in the days to come.
We’ve been having a bit of trouble with the server again. Not entirely sure what’s causing it this time, but we’re looking into the issue.
Customer Service with a Smile
On page 4-13, we get to see Ronan smiling! Don’t count on this being a regular occurrence.
Things have been a little shaky as of late. I got sick again and that’s made it next to impossible to do anything. Balls.
Well, I’m on the tail end of it, so here’s hoping next week proves a little more productive ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Detailed, Semi-Realistic Anime Food
Page 4-12, in which I wanted an excuse to draw anime food. A nice way to cap off Elliott nursing a slice of cake for 12 weeks.
There have been some weird outages on the site as of late, but we’re working on a solution to that. Sincerest apologies if you’ve been trying to visit the site lately and it’s been down 🙇♂️
Also, I’d like to take this time to thank everyone who not only reads Electric Fencer, but goes the extra mile to react to or leave comments on their favorite pages. Things have been really hectic as of late with my day job situation being in flux, among other things, so checking in to respond to or upvote messages has been the the little kick of dopamine I needed to tell me that we’ve still got a good thing going here. Thanks!
New Character Art and Profiles!
They’re done! The new banners are up! Here are the banners the site will randomly cycle through:
The Characters Page has also been updated with new bios for our eight main heroes!
