I have an issue where I never know what to name files, and ended up with two comic files named “issue 2” and uploaded the wrong one.
The correct file is now up. Only major changes are the last 5 pages, starting at frame 148. You can. Skip directly to it by clicking the link below. Sorry to anyone who had already read through the issue.

Issue 2 is well under way and should be out before too long. Had to take a few weeks off due to flu AND Covid back to back. But have spent all my other free time grinding and pumping out pages. Stay tuned, it’ll be out soon.
Took all the feedback and applied it to the transition timing. Turns out people like instantaneous transition over dramatic ones. So that’s what I’m going with.
Also edited the last page to give a better idea of what is actually happening. Head over to the comics page and give’er a look.
The biggest problem with making the comic the way I have, (using Apple’s Keynote) is that the output file is rather huge. Maybe not by a lot of standards in todays world, but as it stands in it’s current form, it’s totals 140MB.
I’m assuming this is due to the transitions, as the images themselves aren’t that large, even accounting for how many there are.
If anyone out there know a way to compress the file sizes, let me know.
I will say I’m trying to find a new way to display the comic, that allows for me to add a loading screen.
Used additional feedback to improve timing on the demo. Updated ALL transitions to .2 seconds and improved readability of the “Lore” page.
Also made the the flash a clickable object and sped up its transition to prevent premature user clicking. As well as adding a new “rotate” direction cue to the opening.
Go give it a read and let me know what you think.
