Maybe it was a bit silly to make an image that directs people to the "Latest Update" when I didn't yet have a Latest Update. I...

Suzanne remembers something she wanted to check up on at the HeroWorks training facility gym. There, she bumps into Casey and...
Suzanne meets the eclectic group of supers she'll be training alongside for the next several months. Then, they head out to York,...
Working on a new outro for Episode 4 and intro for the new Episode 5... Sooo I guess I've committed to splitting it. The outro for EP 4 just confirms something the audience already knows but the intro for 5 does show some... somewhat significant things. After that, I'll be changing the way I handle the temp updates.

Seriously considering splitting Episode 4 into two episodes, the "town tour" section and the "gym section". If I did I've decided the new Episode 5 would be called "Potential".

I THIIINNNK... I finally feel pretty comfortable advertising my Etsy shop. You can find it over here: https://softsserve.etsy.com (there's an extra "S" in there). It's a way to support me and still get something out of it such as shirts, stickers, or pictures and posters for your wall. Additionally, my Patreon is another means of supporting me if your just want to do so directly. You can find it over here: www.patreon.com/Softsful . I'll slowly build up the products on the Etsy shop over time.

A while back I plotted out how many pages from the original run of Octeal were covered by each episode of the reboot, and I figured the 200ish pages I originally uploaded ended up being around 10 episodes. This episode, Episode 4, Canal Town... covers the most pages by a mile. The next biggest are Episodes 7 and 9, which cover about 24 pages each. Episode 4 covers 36 pages... anyway, I figure I'm about %80 done with Episode 4.... ONLY %80. Heheh.

This recent temp update is the last one before the comic moves over to York, the main setting of the first arc of Octeal... I am genuinely dreading background art in the eponymous Canal Town. 'Specially those underwater shots... Ich, now that I think of it, the next temp update is almost exclusively shots of York...
Incidentally, when I say "First Arc", I'm referring to "Surprising" Octeal. Each Arc has a different prefix, with Surprising being the first. There are four in total.
The day after she's attacked, Phin chooses to inform Suzanne about why what happened, happened. With what she hears, Suzanne...
Suzanne is recovering from her transformation and receives a visit from Phin Fridman, come to explain what will start happening...
A young woman named Suzanne is given an offer of a lifetime... which almost immediately gets derailed.

Love the atmosphere, colour contrast and body language/expressions. Looks like a movie, which I assume might have been the goal. :)
I enjoyed how ridiculous it was.

Yep! Well, I write the comic with binge readers in mind and that does make it flow like a movie. Not too fast, not too slow.
That DOES comes with the caveat that I can only produce the comic so fast but eventually it will be a very binge-able comic.
An announcement for a change with the comic.
The reasons some supers can have more mentally-strenuous powers and not go mad vary from super to super, but they have common...
Klipspringer's design has actually changed quite a bit since I made her. Eeriness wasn't even remotely a part of her design...
It's kinda funny. Because at this point her name hasn't actually been revealed... but if I did my job right, I'm sure people will...
Ohhhhh... it's her...
Bit more of that "Human Rules" thing. Normal fighting methods are essentially irrelevant to Suzanne.
The relationships between Heroes and other services might come up in the future... but not during Surprising.
Both Bianka and Casey's self-perceptions are getting challenged.
The weight of Suzanne's body forces her to "skip" when moving fast enough.
This was actually one of the first scenes I wrote when making Octeal.
Some folks have this nasty tendency to think the school of hard knocks is the appropriate method 100% of the time... and,...
You can't just make your Human Relations teacher ALSO have to take care of the whole facility...
Slowing down a bit at this point as we're now catching up with the latest pages.
