Screenshot of my Clip Studio workspace with thumbnails for a 7-page comic on the far left, plus two roughed pages with blank text boxes on the right. The depict a figure tying their shoes, leaving their house, boarding a bus, transferring said busses, riding a bus, and then standing at a trailhead. What's it about you ask? Probably hiking, duh.

Something about the @nwmoca.bsky.social's ribbon cutting today and seeing my own comics on display kicked me in the butt to pull out a forgotten 7-page comic script and see if I can actually do it. #comic

Yes, that is our current schedule. Can be subject to change as we work out the kinks with staffing and whatnot, but we will do our best to keep everyone updated.
