MaritoniaI’ve been looking at my comic schedule and it turns out I had planned a two week hiatus this summer, but I think it might end up being a two month hiatus. I’ve got a big cross-country move coming up at the end of this month and I need to do a TON of stuff in preparation. The thing at the bottom of my list right now is unfortunately comics.
Fortunately, the comic isn’t going to come to a grinding halt. There will be a new page this Wednesday (June 5th) and there will be at least one other update this June. Depending on how things go, I might be able to do biweekly updates into July. The comic is going to go on a full hiatus until at least early August, possibly September depending on how much work travel I have coming up.
The other good news is that Chapter 2 is on track to be complete by the end of the year. Behind the scenes, I’ve been getting a lot done. It’s all inked, I have 3 pages left to flat. The rest is just shading and adding speech bubbles. Chapter 3 is halfway drawn, I’ve started inking the next side comic (Minor Niner). Things should settle down this fall. I will be increasing upload frequency starting in October/November to make up for the summer. I just need some time to focus on BTS stuff and not have to worry about having uploads ready for a couple months.
Now, if you need something to tide you over until later this summer, buy Alpha of the North! More details are available in this post. It’s available digitally and as a print edition (and if you buy a print copy, I don’t mind taking a walk to the post office).
