I drew and redrew this page about half a million times because I couldn’t decide what to do with it. It’s kind of a lot to try and cover all of the worst parts of humanity in one swoop, but whatever. All I could think of with regard to “environmental disaster” was the current situation with the oil in the gulf, so hooray for incorporating current events, I guess.

I’ve been tweaking the forums a slight bit, including adding a new skin. I was tired of looking at the old one. I’ve been posting previews for new pages and exclusive book content, so be sure to register and check it out! If you’re a regular reader, please hop in! The forums can always use more activity and it would be great to hear from you.

Not much else to note in this update, but check back on Wednesday for new vote incentive art! Thanks for reading!

First thing’s first, I need to deal with fanart. D: Although I am not terrible about getting my fanart put in its proper gallery, I am terrible about making mention of it! I have received a couple of things recently and totally neglected to mention them. I am the worst. D:

The first is by Arby, who draws Grayling! She is an awesome artist and if you haven’t, you should check out her comic. The second is by Pomp, who draws Lunavis, which is also great. (It’s also technically a crossover featuring Thadius from Chu’s comic Slightly Damned! I’m just promoting everyone today aren’t I.) Thanks, guys!

Secondly, there’s a new vote incentive at TWC! And if you haven’t noticed, I scripted a fancy button in the right sidebar that shows you a preview of whatever the current incentive is and tells you what rank Messenger’s at presently. 😀 Your votes are always much appreciated. ♥

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend, although if you’re American or Canadian, I hope you had an especially nice Fourth of July or Canada Day, respectively. I spent my own Canada Day (although I’m American) attending an outdoor concert in my area by Our Lady Peace, one of my favorite bands.

I’ve loved their music since I was in high school, so it was pretty nostalgic for me, but it also got me thinking about the influence of music on the comic. A lot of the story is indirectly inspired by some of my favorite songs, and I listen to tons of music while I’m working on the comic, so upon a reader suggestion (thanks, Ita!) I’ve compiled a list of “related songs,” so now there’s a page for that.

I sort of feel like I ought to explain what I mean by “related,” though.

New Vote Incentive!

New Vote Incentive! published on No Comments on New Vote Incentive!

The last page of the Gears vote incentive minicomic is now up! You can view it by voting at TWC.
gears: vote incentive minicomic

Gears was just a quick and dirty opportunity for me to try some things out without doing a full comic. I might try and do another vote incentive comic series eventually, in a different style. First I need to knock this book out of the way. :V

As a quick extra note, Messenger’s Facebook page now updates automatically. So if you use Facebook, you can have updates and other extra stuff delievered straight to your news feed, all while helping to support and promote the comic. Handy!
