The whole of chapter 1 is up on our website. We do have an RSS feed on the home page. But it's very much the boomer way of doing webcomics.
I would rather do this as opposed to this scheduled posting thing? But the personal web is a niche now.

God same actually
What’s an episode of a TV show that was so bad it made you quit watching it altogether?
For me, it was this 2012 Doctor Who Christmas special, which contained the same tired “Doctor WHO?” joke no fewer than four times

Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.
I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

I don't have many GOOD ones like that. Most of my tastes are "so bad it's good" dubs such as 1) Ai No Kusabi 2012 (ENG) or 2) Angel Sanctuary (ENG)
Both are fucking awful but fun to watch drunk off your ass.
I read so it's much easier to pull good manga recs such as 3) Emanon and 4) Wicked Spot

TW for better lobotomy and mini spoiler 💪
First lobotomy wasn't trippy enough (pen and paper has its limits)
Needed 100% more lobotomizing

More nanomango progress. I really like the diction. I don't think I'm spoiling any more of chapter 2 though. 🤐

I know I'm doing things in a fairly unconventional way. I want my comic to be to a certain point before I keep wip stuff private. I'd rather document my progress during these challenge runs to show how quickly I'm trying to improve.

I wish fashion designer was a valid career path. I feel like its a lot of being in the right scene at the right time. And I have a limited battery for partying.

I know its Bia. I honestly can't wait to show her in comic because both her and her brother use their powers in cool ways. The power/ability/ESP system was designed around her + 1 oher character. She lets me show off my effort better than any other character could. So I'm happy people like her.

When I’m at conventions I do this thing at my table where I let friends send mini zines and I print them and put them in a gatcha. I sell them for a buck and spend that money on supplies to do it again at the next con. It’s not about money it’s about sharing something cool!
