As we come to the close of this interlude, we get one more revelation: it seems not everybody in Vigil is so keen on ending the current status quo. These guys... always so duplicitous!

Hosting Stuff
Well, the hosting issue is becoming trickier than I thought. I'm working on getting migrated over to a new host, but for now I'm not able to predict when that'll happen.
Sorry for the delay, everyone...

Comic 719 -- The Big Question
More revelations from the Timeless Sepulchre...
Playing fast and loose with scriptural interpretation is just how we roll around these parts.

Comic 718 -- The Vigil
A big secret deserves a big panel...
Shemira is a real Hebrew tradition in which the body of the deceased is watched over until it's ready for burial. In this case, of course, it's taking on a somewhat altered meaning. The rules are a little different when you're dealing with gods and archangels.
Grandma Stella, forever sharp, picked up the clue the first time she heard the name.

Comic 717 -- Introductions
Next comic is up and ready...
Here we get the complete introduction to Vigil's top seven--now featuring one Stella Wincott. We also get their corresponding Archangel pairings.
Now, if you're going to write a story with Archangels, you're going to run into different rosters in different religious texts. I didn't go with any one tradition's version, but rather chose a kind of all-star list to fill out my own lineup. Keep in mind that there were originally ten archangels, and we do know the identity of the non-Vigil survivor.
Anyway, I don't claim to be an expert on angelic lore, but I do find it pretty interesting, as you can probably tell. Fortunately, Thunderstruck isn't a scholarly treatise--so when I run into contradictory source material or something that doesn't square with my version of things, I get to make the call of what works best in the story.
In other news... whoo! Busy time with The Dragon Waking. I'll scrape together a post at some point and tell you all about it.

The final installment of the year...
We're heading into a big reveal here of Vigil's most closely-guarded secret, and indeed the basis of its very existence. And of course Grandma is here to shake everything up...

Comic 715 -- Until Next Time
Cripes! Technical trouble is now solved. Okay...
Geez. Sorry about that, everyone.
Okay, that about wraps it up for Chapter 14!
My plan is to deliver a comic for December... just not a very long one. More of an intro for where we're going next. Thanks for your patience, everyone.
