The second image is a preview of what the usual noontime "making-of-this-strip" drawing board looks like — always available to tiers 2 & 3!
Thank you for being here, for helping Achewood get to this milestone — one-hundred straight comics. Two years ago this wasn't even an idea, and in the wake of The Netflix disappointment I didn't know if these characters would ever speak again. Now, because you are directly supporting the art you enjoy, all of Achewood and its limitless (ill-defined?) universe is back in play, for all that you used to like about it, plus hopefully new dimensions as well.
Every week that I write these strips and their attendant extracurriculars, I discover new possibilities for storytelling in this medium. This is thanks both to a now-clear head, and the reward of an audience who could always do with a little Ray and Beef. Here's to self-publishing as a great way forward for content too damn good to make it big.
I'll be writing with your happiness and laughter at heart as we here begin the path to Achewood's second hundred.
