Taking a short break from the comic for the sake of my sanity, catching up on other projects, and tweaking a few old storyboards.
See you all soon!
Back in 2 weeks!

Made this page before I take a break for a few weeks and get back on the comic train in January.
I’d normally wish everyone a happy winter solstice/Xmas/New Year/anything else being celebrated round about now, but happiness is pretty thin on the ground in this dumpster fire of a year.
Take care of each other, people. I hope better days eventually come in some form.
I hate, hate, hate doing this, and I know I’ve done it A LOT in this year alone, but I think I’m gonna need to take a break from the comic for the rest of December. Seasonal depression is hitting me hard, and on top of the dumpster fire that has been 2020 in general removing a lot of my means of keeping my sanity intact, I feel…pretty damn paralysed by this particular bout. I’ve got a big collaborative project for eventual publication to work on, and staying on top of that AND the comic might be a bit more than I can handle at the moment, so in the interests of both my mental health and making more progress on the collaborative project, I’ll be putting Five Comic on temporary hold until 4th Jan (the first Monday of 2021.)
Thank you all for being such understanding and excellent readers; I’ll still post doodles and stand-alone art here and on the web page. Have a good rest of the year, and may 2021 be slightly less shit.

Unfortunately, the hot weather and thunderstorms brought some debilitating migraines with them this week and a busy stack of commissions has meant the next page of chapter 10 has ended up on the back-burner. So I’ll be taking a break to catch up…back on 29th June!
I’m doing the ‘Quarantober’ art challenge on Facebook , and here’s what I have for day 10: “Unite”.
The gang’s all here, in blurry, indistinct pseudo-paint.
