It’s been far too long.
I am really bummed that a few weeks turned into so many months, really. And I’ve been dying to come back to this story. After all this time it seems unfair to leave these characters hanging. Unfortunately, I have a life as well, and it’s been very, very difficult lately. I’m not going to go into a litany of my problems – we all have problems. But a great deal has gone against me since we left off, and it’s going to be months, if not years, before it comes back around for me, at this point. So, with my little cat my by side, a mountain of self-doubt and a vast reluctance, I have returned to 6-Commando.
Sweetus, who the Town rescued from beneath someone’s house, if you can believe that, has taken up her duties as my Artist’s Cat with great seriousness and enthusiasm since the passing of my poor old Pupshaw. She is even now sitting on my shoulder watching me type this. And as ever, things being what they are, there are no guarantees about anything. But the only surefire way not to succeed is not to try, so here goes Chapter 8.
More about what’s next for 6-Commando next week. For now, here goes nothing.
That’s a beautiful piece! Sorry to hear about your troubles. Just take care of yourself, all right? Your fans can wait.
Also: cats. <3
So, back in that dreamscape? Not that I complain, it’s a lovely piece. 🙂
As always though – we will be there, you get everything sorted out for yourself, so it won’t result in an avalanche. Those things are scary (and utterly demotivating).
Aaand – glad to have you back with us 🙂
And Sweetus, please – do take care of this human, hmm? 😀
This scene would make a really good pic if you wanna imagine a post-apocalyptic world. Barely anything growing, destroyed military equipment around, suffering humans….oh wait, that is the plot of this comic. ^^
If it were also bigger, it would make for a great wallpaper 🙂
Everything is better with a shoulder cat.
My cat tells me so.
So glad you’re back! The page looks really good, can’t wait to see what happens next. (Is that Milo?).
Those sound like serious setbacks, Mr. Average! 🙁
Prayers sent your way.
Well hey, good to hear from you! Sorry to hear things have turned against you like this, hope they improve soon! And yes, cats are a help.
Nice!
I hope things improve soon, man. And you’re right, about only being able to succeed if you try. That’s a pretty good one to remember. Please don’t worry – we all love 6-Commando and you’ve done a great job drawing it over the past 9 years. We’ll still be here no matter what happens 🙂
