A Hairy Beast preview (Patreon)

I'm back home, settled in, and for the past week have finally started drawing this year's Halloween comic! Just how finished it will be by Halloween is questionable, but I do have a plan to make it easier.

In movie terms, this comic's "theatrical release" will be two pages. Pages 1 & 3 out of seven, specifically. Over the next week I'll be drawing page 3, which should leave plenty of time to get both inked & colored.

After those two pages are done, pages 4 & 5 will serve as a "director's cut", completing the story as I'd originally planned it however long ago.

Pages 2, 6, & 7 are optional bits that the story doesn't really need, but that I've added over the years to keep myself interested. If I still feel like they're worth doing, they can act as an "extended edition".

What I haven't decided yet, is whether the additional pages will get inked & colored, or left as sketches. I'm sort of "shaking the cobwebs off" after a rough couple/few years, there's a lot I want to catch up on, but I also need to be careful not to over-extend myself.
