In comic news, I've been told that SA2 should be released this weekend (edit, release has been delayed until sometime next week), so keep an eye out for that.
Next month on the SubscribeStar will be the continuation of Roomies 2 as I work to finish that story.
In other news, I've decided to experiment with a new comic format. This format can be likened to more of a graphic novel with longer text blocks than a comic with panels. Each page will be a single full page image of the key moment being talked about, with text block descriptions like a pinup instead of speech and sound bubbles. The reason I'm interested in trying this out is that it has a number of potential advantages over the longer form comics:

In other news, I've decided to experiment with a new comic format. This format can be likened to more of a graphic novel with longer text blocks than a comic with panels. Each page will be a single full page image of the key moment being talked about, with text block descriptions like a pinup instead of speech and sound bubbles. The reason I'm interested in trying this out is that it has a number of potential advantages over the longer form comics:
- I can spend all my time focused on the hottest images that are the most fun to make.
- I don't have to grind out dozens of panels just to push the story forward.
- I can continue pushing the art quality even higher.
- I can address the complaint about stories sometimes moving too slowly, as I can easily jump forward in time and skim over less interesting moments.
- This would allow me to actually make many of the comic pitches from the SubscribeStar into longer stories in a much shorter period of time.
I've decided to test out this format by creating a 12ish page graphic novel for Dirty Priest, roughly based on the SubscribeStar comic pitch. The characters have been named Hailee and Father Jacobs, and the story will cover her initial confession and being tricked into undergoing her first punishment and falling under his control.
Publishing method hasn't been discussed yet, but my goal is to make it as widely available as possible, and once it comes out I want to get feedback on this format to see if people like it or not. Based on that I'll make the decision to continue it with more stories. I've created 5 of the pages already and should be able to finish it this month, so it will come out relatively quickly.
I've included a sneak peak of one of the pages below so you can see the characters and format.
looking very much forward to it!
Would you Consider having a full page with multiple panels for like specific sequences. Also been looking forward to dirty priest for a while can't wait for it
I was thinking potentially 2 panel pages could make sense, but not sure, so far they are all full pages.
(edit, SA2 release has been delayed until sometime next week)
At the very least it's good to experiment. It sounds like we end up getting more content over all.
SA2 is released on Dofantasy! I have bought it!
