I’m not ending the comic, I just took a time out to write ahead on the next chapter.

About Raphael’s powers… I never thought of them in terms of “magical” or “divine”. He certainly doesn’t get any sparkly special effects when he uses them, so I guess magic is out. At the same time, the word “divine” is… loaded, I guess, appropriate but a little strong. I guess he is kind of a minor godling, though, or at least kind of hanging halfway there, what with not being “awakened”. And I definitely think of his usual stunts as “suspending” laws of nature, though in specific cases he did outright break them (infinite ammo?).

Thank you! This comic doesn’t get many comments, so I appreciate yours.

The hiatus is now over, and I hope you’ll enjoy this next chapter.

Yes, you are doing a great job. I’ve enjoyed the comic for a while now, and I’d be super sad if you ended it.

As far as questions go, I have a couple questions regarding the nature of Raphael’s powers. Would you consider them to be magic or divine in nature? Also, when he does something like catch a bullet or phase a man through a wall, is he breaking, bending, or “suspending” laws of nature?

Keep up the good work, but keep in mind what’s really important =]

Here’s a message for commending your work. I don’t think I have very much to ask, but I’m sure you appreciate being told you’re doing a good job, and all it took was this one message, so here you go. You’re doing a good job :3

You flatter me ^_^ and that technique did inspire me in this comic, even if the whole thing is digitally done.

But I do suck at drawing cars, or should I say, I’m not invested into drawing cars, and if I had to draw it for several consecutive pannels/pages (as I will have to in at least 2 future chapters) it would get old really, really fast… which is why a 3d model is handy to have.

Even if there are only 2 models :/ I’ll have to go 3d-model-hunting sometime in the future.

god i can be such a dork. lol i’ve been looking for updates and just now read your post. love your comic, and it’s actually not sucky drawing. it’s a unique style of drawing, but it’s not sucky. it looks like watercolor that you then went back and sketched in the harder lines with a pen. i’ve had a lot of friends use the style in art classes.
