Comic 799 -- Only One Law, Redux

 Okay, finally!

This brings us to the end of this interlude. Next up: Gail is stuck with Jude, and Sharon is stuck without a destination...

Comic Delay...

Sorry, everyone. I am going to be a few days late with the comic, owing to a kind of perfect storm of colliding tasks. I should have an update no later than this weekend.

Meanwhile, if you're interested in some new reading material, you might check out Electric Spec. This is a short story magazine for science fiction, fantasy, horror, and all the genres in between. I'm one of the editors, and here's the stories that we're publishing this issue:

• "What the Buck!" by Zoë Blaylock--Discover what happens when the only thing worse than being abducted by aliens is not being abducted by aliens.
• "Hecesiiteihii" by Jim Genia--A young warrior encounters a legend from the pre-colonial past of North America in the modern world.
• "The Willingham Bay Witches" by Sarah Jackson--What's more dangerous than being a detective? Trying to solve mysteries in a town full of witches.
• "Duet for a Soloist" by Jameyanne Fuller--Music and magic intertwine as the rivalry between two sisters reaches its crescendo.
• "Galatea at the Circus" by Ana Gardner--When a virtual being enters a circus of the imagination, her freedom is on the line. 

 I'll update the comic as soon as I can. Thanks for hanging in there...

Comic 798 -- Psyche Gets the News

 Sax finally gets where he wishes to go...

... but it's the baggage, man. Always with the baggage.

 Been a while since we've seen Psyche, hasn't it?

Comic 797 -- About Sacrifice

 Sax finally reunites with his sister...

... or does he?

Happy New Year, everyone. I'm hoping that starting off with a case of Covid doesn't set the tone for the whole year.

Comic Delay — My Luck Ran Out

 So, I finally got smacked down by Covid. It was a good run, but Omicron proved too wily in the end. 

I’ll get the next comic up as soon as I can. Meanwhile, I am going back to sleep.

Comic 796 -- Connection

 There's regular dreams, and then...

... there are dreams with a purpose.

Hope all of you who celebrate Thanksgiving had a good holiday!

Comic 795 -- Saxony on Trial

 Sax's bad dream continues...

This one references a lot of older strips! I put a list of links on the comic page... though don't be surprised if it's not entirely comprehensive.

We are not just randomly dropping into one of Sax's troubled dreams, by the way (as fun as it is). There is an objective here. Stick around for the next strip, and you'll get a better idea of what this is all about.

Comic 794 -- I Swear I Saw a Saw

Sax continues to dream...

Sax really did let Bella get under his skin. 

You may notice I'm making a few renovations with the ol' blog. One thing I needed to do is to get rid of the old RSS feed on the comic page, since that thing wasn't working. The blog's RSS updates work, though, so that'll keep you up to date with every new comic.

I've also added a bit of art, and a few other odds and ends. I'm hoping to do a bit more with The Raptor Clause... I'll let you know as I get new features into place.

Comic 793 -- Our Main Attraction

 A new interlude begins...

Here's a chance to get a peek at Saxony's inner world. I think there's often quite a gulf between the way others see us and how we see ourselves. Also, there will be some plot developments. This isn't just any old dream...

Comic 792 -- In the Ruins of Sakrament Abbey

 What a mess.

This brings us to the end of Chapter 16! This chapter contained some sequences I've been looking forward to for a long time--specifically, the ball game in Xibalba, and Gail's duel with another Vessel of Vigil.

I hope you enjoyed the ride. Next up is an interlude, starring Saxony and his troubled subconscious.
