And so we end on a not-so-happy note for our dear Abby. I don't know why, but whenever I think of some moving music for this scene, I always think of this song:
Terrible choice, I know, but… oh wait this just in… apparently I've been fired as music director for this project. Hmm. I didn't realize we had a music director! Oh well.
So, what's next for this comic? Actually, I should ask that in a larger font…
I've alluded to this possibility before, but I'll make it official now: From this point forward, this comic is going to become an anthology series. That way, I can focus more on shorter stories within the Transneptunian universe. That is not to say that I plan on abandoning the main original plot altogether: I'll continue adding installments to that as well, as a continuing series within the anthology. However, the installments may not necessarily be in perfectly chronological order or sync up as nicely as they would have in a fully contiguous graphic novel. Things may be glossed over or entirely skipped in order to keep the installments short and concise as possible.
A while ago, I wrote a 35-page short story for a DD anthology project which ultimately it proved a bad fit for. So, I'll be posting that here instead. However, I plan on reworking that to make it more of an 'Adult' rated comic, so it will run a bit longer than the initial 35 pages. I'll probably post that at the beginning of next year.
As for the remainder of the year and at least the early months of next year, I probably won't be doing much in the way of comics, as I'll be focusing on my video game project. I wish I had something cool to post here to show my progress so far, but for the most part I'm just working out nuts-and-bolts type stuff at this stage, so there's nothing interesting to see at this point. Hopefully in a few months I'll be further along!
So, that's all for now. I'll see you all around the site, and don't forget to Subscribe to this comic so you'll be notified when it starts updating again! Thank you so much for reading and commenting and all that good stuff. Bye for now!
More or less yeah, that's the plan. I haven't done any work on it so far though; been busy with the game design stuff. I'm finally working on the end prototype for the game and once that's finished, I can find time to do more webcomics related stuff.
Yeah, it does sort of look like one of those shots in a movie, where they're setting it up for something jarring to happen… but in this case it just cuts to black.
This has been a dilly! I’ll look forward to your return. The anthology idea is cool. It seems like it’s the world (or galaxy) itself is really the main ‘character’ in your stuff, and we get different people and adventures within that. It works, and suits an anthology approach too I’d say. Looks like the video game has a slightly more cartoony look? I like it!

How is the game coming along?

So, you're basically inserting some gratuitous sex scenes into the previously 35-page story? :-D

I have no problem with this at all. :-)

I don't think poor Abby has blinked in the last five pages.

Amazing page!

It's just like the Jungle Cruise at Disney!

But with a lot less rape.

It's funny how music can play such a big part in art or your creative process
El Cid at
Absolutely. Though my music choices are mostly pretty awful.

Like right outta a movie! Beautiful

I was going for something cinematic, though whether this is a happy or a sad ending is up to the reader.

Sounds like more fun to come.

Hopefully, though not until next year.

I'm expecting a huge fish to swallow them whole.

Always love a happy ending…. this is good too.
El Cid at
This was about as happy an ending as Abby was going to get!

You are prolific Cid!
El Cid at
Whether that is a good or a bad thing, depends on who you ask!
Banes at
Powerful ending too. Jeez, that is haunting. That song is great! I could picture that playing over this!
El Cid at
I could have gone with Rick Astley's 'Never Gonna Give You Up!'
