Sort of a Two-fer?

Page 4-17 is now up, but also, I completely forgot to post that Page 4-16 also went up last week 😬

4-18 will be going up next week, though I do have a bit of frustrating news to share…There may or may not be a hiatus in the coming weeks due to how bad this summer has been for comic creation. I’ll try to stave it off for as long as I can, and even try to get multiple pages done to have a steady stream of content. Apologies in advance!

I’ve taken on a lot of new responsibilities at work, so this aspect of my life has taken something of a hit, but we’ll see things through.

Customer Service with a Smile

On page 4-13, we get to see Ronan smiling! Don’t count on this being a regular occurrence.

Things have been a little shaky as of late. I got sick again and that’s made it next to impossible to do anything. Balls.

Well, I’m on the tail end of it, so here’s hoping next week proves a little more productive ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Detailed, Semi-Realistic Anime Food

Page 4-12, in which I wanted an excuse to draw anime food. A nice way to cap off Elliott nursing a slice of cake for 12 weeks.

There have been some weird outages on the site as of late, but we’re working on a solution to that. Sincerest apologies if you’ve been trying to visit the site lately and it’s been down 🙇‍♂️

Also, I’d like to take this time to thank everyone who not only reads Electric Fencer, but goes the extra mile to react to or leave comments on their favorite pages. Things have been really hectic as of late with my day job situation being in flux, among other things, so checking in to respond to or upvote messages has been the the little kick of dopamine I needed to tell me that we’ve still got a good thing going here. Thanks!

Chancla Attack!

Generations of children the world over, both in-universe and in the real world, know the terror that is a flying slipper to the head. Lance’s PTSD on Page 4-11 is a testament to that!

Sorry this went up a little late. I’ve been working on new art for the site all day as well as dealing with some household errands. But here it is! Things should be moving a bit more optimally come next week.

Getting Back into the Swing of Things

After a busy several weeks, I’m back from my trip and it’s time to get this ball rolling again. First off:

The cover for Issue 4 is finally ready, and just as well, the issue itself is still good to go for April 3! We have help from a guest writer this time around, so this issue is sure to be a really special one, this time around, in my opinion.

As promised, I have photos from my trip to Japan! I picked the ones that stood out the most to me (there were quite a few):

We had an amazing time and though we didn’t get to experience nearly everything we wanted, we accomplished a lot! We’ll be back to visit sometime down the road!

Bird is the Word

Page 3-21 is up and along with it is a new character, Lyndisfarne, the Spirit of Lightning!

This’ll probably be the last you’ll hear from me here for the next few weeks as I’ll be traveling out of the country to Japan! Maybe I’ll share a photo or two of my travels!

The comic will still update over the next couple of weeks and Issue 3 may or may not finish before I get back, but as previously stated, the comic will take a two week break following the end of Issue 3 and start back up April 3. I’ll post an update or two after I return so the site isn’t just, like, dead, but otherwise we’re wrapping this issue up soon.

Bird Up

Page 3-20 is up, as is Bird™.

Sooo…the wheels on the comic creation train screeched to a halt the last few weeks. Why? Because I decided to blow out some candles for my birthday recently, and wouldn’t you know it—the universe hit back with a little gift of its own. Got slammed by the notorious bug whose name rhymes with ‘blovid blineteen.’

Here’s some free advice: get your shots, mask up, or at the very least, don’t be that tool who thinks they’re above it all.

Magnus has been playing a little too much Street Fighter. Let’s see how Page 3-9 plays out!

Production has been a little slow due to work at the day job and me being sick the last several weeks (fuck bronchitis), but I’m feeling better now and work on Issue 4 is continuing in the background. I’m hoping to have a few previews of that coming soon (I promise), so keep an eye on this space for when that rolls around!
