Phew, that took quite a while. I have now uploaded and categorised all the comics into neat chapters for ease of reading. You may have also noticed that all the "fillers" have been removed from the main comic page. I think this will make things a little less confusing for readers new to web comics who are not used to a random page popping up and breaking the continuity. I am thinking of perhaps adding a page for "fillers" just to keep things tidier. The comic will resume once we have stabilised the whole website a bit. Bear with us and have a nice day.

Phew, that was one of those comics I thought I would never see the end of. I came across many challenges, mainly the drawing of that huge mecha-knight. The initial concept sketches I made for it had completely different legs, the robot looked a lot more stumpy and square. When coloured in and in frame it did not give the appearance which I was trying to achieve, so I drew the legs with my mouse straight on to the page.
For those of you who may not be aware, most of my comics I draw initially on my sketchbook then I scan the images and trace and colour them in on my PC using nothing but a mouse. I did try out one of those tablets for some time, but I always went back to mouse. So if you guys want to have a look at the initial sketch of the mecha, head over to our Facebook page. Also on a side note, have any of you guys noticed I changed the way I draw speech bubbles? I think they look nicer and more dynamic this way, and it is a lot easier to fit them into the frame.
