I've started writing Poor Man's Fight #6, but I feel like keeping the spoilers close to my chest just yet. Kinda feel like I packed a little surprise into the first chapter and I'd rather have it read fresh.

BUT! To make up for it, I had this commission in the works... which, awkwardly, got shared on Twitter first because I failed to communicate those plans to the artist, so I hope nobody minds this not technically being a first unveiling. I still wanted to share it here with this month's benefits, anyway because I LOVE IT SO MUCH.

Alicia and Rav have needed a picture together for a long time. I can't remember when I first decided Rav would be in the thick of practically every big fight of the war and come through it all without a scratch, but it became a big point for me once I had the idea. So, um, spoilers... any time you see a wartime flashback story, the one guarantee I can give is that Ravenell will come through it completely fine. But I think it's nice to have a few things to rely upon, y'know? And who knows where his future leads?

This art, btw, is by Xy La Vie, or @xylavie on Twitter, and she does commissions at great prices--including D&D character art, which is where I started working with her. If you're in the market for such things, look her up. I'm happy to recommend her!

My only question being, can Baldwin and Sanjay be far behind? No wait, I'm lying, I want GSgt Michelle Janeka before anyone else. And we need to see just what a jerk Einstein is. And of course, we need to see Lt. Kelly. Actually, what we need need is an ensemble picture with all the main and suporting characters from all three main story series, maybe at a picnic, maybe at another house party...can we have a shot of Lorelei and GSgt Janeka sizing each other up? Tanner shaking hands with Alex? The rest of the Archangel Marines trading war stories with Wade, Jason, Drew, Taylor, Amber. Molly snarking at Baldwin who has Sanjay with her, and Onyx grinning at all three. Zafirah laughing with Prince Khalil. Alex's and Drew's moms looking absolutely overwhelmed. I think you can tell how it should look. I'm not quite sure how to intermingle the Wandering Monsters crew, though, but knowing their personalities, it shouldn't take long before they're all having a good time too. Hey! Maybe a set of candid photo type illustrations from the picnic, too, all gathered in a book! It's fantasy, right? Anyway, I'd pay top dollar for a print of the original and the book. I bet you could GET top dollar if you auctioned/raffled the originals off for your favorite charity. ;)
