Meet Dexon, who has been languishing in the cameo cue for quite a while. Sometimes the character designs are hard to just slip into the comic and have them make sense. I probably could have stuck him in the background of the Twilight Council stuff, but I like the cameos to have more robust parts. So, instead, he gets stuck wrangling a giant warmongering demon. I imagine the benefits package is pretty good though. I mean, there are probably plenty of demons in Thoth’s army that are in it for the skull cracking, but still, you gotta take care of your people, and you’ll get a better quality of people if you provide good dental. Or… hornal. Whatever demons call horn care.


Tamer: Enhancer 2 – Progress Update:

Editing continues.

Also Far Cry 6, if I’m honest. I know, you’re like “Dave, weren’t you playing AC:Valhalla last we heard?” And yes, that was the case. Look, I have a type. I also bought Middle Earth: Shadows of War since Steam had it on sale along with all the expansion packs for like $11, and they removed the very grubby DLC store that got the game raked over the coals when it came out. So in the last month I’ve installed about 200GB of “climb a thing, look around, kill a guy, steal a horse, upgrade some gear” games. Still, I have to balance game time with comic and writing time, so I’m really only playing a few hours a week.

If you want my review of FC6; “It’s Far Cry 3.” Obviously the graphics are in line with current hardware, and you can get animal sidekicks, but the sidekicks can’t ride in any vehicles you steal, so I’m super bummed about that. If anything, FC6 makes me really wish that Far Cry 7 would take place on an alien world. Like, keep all the same gameplay mechanics, just have it take place on a new colony on some alien planet with weird flora and fauna, and there are aliens living among the humans. Maybe throw in some faction stuff, like human purists vs everyone, space carnivores vs space vegans, etc, and you have to run missions for the “space dwarves” race to earn favor and work your way up a tech tree of cool alien weapons, instead of 9 versions of MP5’s or whatever. Maybe make it slightly Metriodvania so you have to get the low-grav boots to go into the swamp, or the lidar goggles to explore the giant alien termite tunnels. Stuff like that. Just anything other than “Overthrow tiny island despot.” At least I assume there’s a despot in FC6. Fortunately you can skip nearly all of the cutscenes, and I just don’t care. Yeah, he’s bad. Let me shoot stuff and upgrade my pants.

I do hope to have the book’s first editing pass done in… a week? (And then I send it to a few people to get different eyes on it so it’s not riddled with typos. At least that gives me time to work on a cover.)


October’s vote incentive is up! This is a redraw of a comic I did in 2011 I think, but never published. I had originally pictured the comic going through an establishment phase, and then taking occasional breaks from the storylines for little one-off moments like these. Which I guess I could still do. I just got wrapped up in the story telling and forgot.

So Dabbler and Sydney are up late one evening on night watch but Dabbler has just discovered Cinemax…

Nude version is up at Patreon, as is the original version of this page.


Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
