An embarrassingly long time has once again gone by between updates. The truth is I got caught up an a couple of real-world creative theatrical projects as well as the practical aspects of putting a new roof and solar panels on the old homestead. Not an excuse, but it’s the truth.
But now, I have found the time to try to make it up to all of youse, and I hope you all will still stick around to see and enjoy it!
Oh, great to see a new page, Jed. 🙂 Much appreciated.
And I totally get getting caught up in other things; some times you just gotta get stuff done. Will continue checking in here on the regular.
I can relate, in the last 4 years, I had to get my neck fused, developed heart trouble, my cancer returned, (in remission now) and a slue of other minor health issues. My wife fell and broke her hip, they had to replace the joint 2 years ago. My father is 90 (I’m his care-giver) and has dementia. Yeah, been kinda busy myself. Don’t get old, it sux…
I love your comic, I’ve been following for many years now, I don’t mind if RL gets in the way for you. We can wait!
Hey, RL has a habit of that. But on the plus side, it clearly allowed you time for your brain to process the layout for this page in the background, and the results are very dynamic.
I especially like the final panel cliffhanger, even though I knoe full well that, Tula, of all people, will have her shields up for dragon breath weapons. 🙂
Some times, “Been there, done that” doesn’t quite cover it, but it does help to have support. I’d love to see Keltan to throw his morning star at either the dragon or Gorslash while he’s distracted, but that might put an end to the story line a bit premature. Granted Gorslash could beg to get resurrected again, all we can do is wait and see.
LOL, sorry. I just wanted to give support and a few words of encouragement. I was working on a web toon about 20 years ago myself, but in that case I trusted the wrong person with my concept art and a rough-sketched opening comic and they stole the idea, In a display of karma, he screwed it up and it bombed, so maybe it was for the best.
Perhaps the flame will be like that Russian AA missile that did an immediate U-turn back to its own launcher. (I know it’s impossible but is it not beautiful to imagine?)
I’m seriously thinking of doing a re-read here, it’s been ages since I did that, so I might be behind on the lore a bit. When dealing with an evil “god” they do tend to break the rules a bit. At some point, someone is going to have to reaffirm the seals placed on “Scumch” ( I think that was his name) so he will stop messing with our hero’s and torment the planet.
I remember the last Urtt that was yelling “Pratha”. Kelten took care of that nicely. Do it again! Now I’ve scratched that itch and need to go find the panel again.
Basically I have had to Trash the entire site – though I naturally have all the content saved in numerous backups, never fear.
Still, it has not turned out to be an easy fix, and so will take extra time.
The up side is that this will allow me to make fixes and upgrades to the site which I had been putting off, and should allow a much more enjoyable experience!
Warmest regards,
JED

A Wizard of Id reference. Love it.

Agreed. Johnny Hart would be proud.

@Scarsdale Dammit Scarsdale! Now I can’t complain! Jeez, you took all the fun out of it.
Nice to see a new page JED, looking forward to RL taking a break…

I’m just hoping she remembered her opponent would be riding a flame-breathing dragon, and prepared accordingly. (This IS Tula, after all!)

Good to see you back in business…and I see you were a Wizard of Id fan, too.

Nice work! It’s panels like these that keep us coming back (as well as the sexy heroines, of course)!
I have done some theatre, so I get that lure, and congrats on getting the old homestead more self sufficient!
