I have to turn in so I’ll keep it brief. The new job is going great, but the commute is long. Not bad, just long. But the work is good and plentiful, so I’m happy. And Manhattan is proving an invigorating change of pace.
As the the comic, I really stepped into it when I set this dream in the middle of a wheat field. All this tall grass is a real pain to draw. But in the end the effect is worth it, I hope. My favorite panel is the last one. I admit that, up to now, I hadn’t really “liked” Major Bronniford. But she’s growing on me, and this page seemed particularly human, the way she’s responding to all this. And her expressions came out pretty much just right. So, score.
Anyway, I’m off to bed, with another week’s work to come. All the best, folks!
I do believe that there might be Kansas.
Unlike Quebec, Kansas is not littered with the hulks of destroyed Soviet armor.
Well, to be fair, I did put a burnt out Sentinel in there, too – equal opportunity wreckage.

Hi been reading this for some time now and just wanted to say how great this webcomic is. It looks great and has a great story.
I’m really glad to hear that you like it! This comic has been a real test of commitment for me – there are dozens, even hundreds of comics out there that are so high up in the popularity polls that it can sometimes feel like nobody’s noticing what I’m doing, so it really helps to hear that people are reading and enjoying it. Thanks so much!

Ooh, am I seeing this correctly, is that… l’amour? I sure hope that when Sarah wakes up Milo will be there, soon.
Art wise this is again a beautiful page, those battered up tanks between all that grass, really excellent! Very curious to see where this is going to end up.
😀
Just you wait!

Ok, so, I decided that over this weekend I was going to check up on some of the comics from MGN’s forum. I don’t think I knew what to expect from this one, but holy crud. I was thrown for a loop… There must have been a couple good moments where I was cussing at my computer screen out of surprise.
As far as the artwork goes, I think you have a good thing going…
Needless to say, I’m adding this to my list of webcomics. Keep up the good work, I’ll be watching with great interest.
I hope they were good shouts! You made me go back and reread the first chapter at a sitting, to try to see where you’d had those moments. And I realized I had literally not read the whole story through for close to six months. That it has given you a good reaction gives me enormous confidence. THanks so much for the support!
