Week 123! (Patreon)

I'm gonna have to redo how I do these preview thumbnails I used to make to announce comic updates on sites, they've never been very good...

Anyway, surprise!

Attached to this post is the very first comic to be completed in two years, 382 - Pick Yourself Off the Ground. Yes, an honest to god actual real completed comic, and it's a month early for all of you. This is, hopefully (again, barring any interruptions and emergencies), the comic that will be going up on January 31st next year. At the VERY LEAST, this comic will be guaranteed to go up at some point. That in itself is a breath of life, if very small, into this long-comatose story. I hope you enjoy it; it's nothing super-special, and you also already probably read the script for it I attached to an update last month (although, like I predicted, I did alter a number of things), but hey.

Also, second suprise, I'm not going to charge you all for this last week of 2016, so there's no fifth payment marker for this month. A) It wouldn't even be that much, B) I got some minor amount of money from the holidays to help make up for it, and C) it IS Christmas/NYE week, so I figured, along with this brand new comic, I could spare you all from a five-weeks-of-payment month as well.

Thank you everyone who's stuck with me for so long through this enormous horrible hiatus. I can't make up for those two years of almost-nothing, but at the very least I hope I can finally give something back to you and bring this story back to life. See you all next year.
