First and foremost, I apologize for disappearing for over a year since my last update. What a terrible creator I am. I don't want to make any excuses but at the end of the day, you all deserve some explanations.
As many of you may remembered, I have gone dark before in late 2016. Back then, I told you it was a health issue concerning my eyes. What I didn't tell you was, I was also having a massive depression. (Now that I have noticed, it was probably one of the reasons why Season 1 Chapter 10 was a bit sad.)
When I came back in 2017, I wanted it to be different. To take more time to draw. Find where to land with this comic. However, that same depression found me again. Part of it was the fail of Abel & a Dead Man's Patreon campaign. I found myself questioning the entire existence of the series.
Don't get me wrong. I love this series. I have the outline mapped out til its final chapter in Season 3. But as the story developed, it would get much more complicated and time consuming to draw. I couldn't handle it while working my ass off to pay bills. Even this day, I don't think I could continue it without direct monetary support.
This is not a cry to ask for money. No. I am doing well regardless. But I had to make a decision to abandon this series for the time being. That decision kept me sane. The terrible thing I did was to abandon my readers. It was wrong of me to run away without saying a word. I truly apologize for my behavior.
I am now focusing on something else but this comic still exist in my mind. Hopefully one day I will be able to sustain my life well enough and continue Abel and a Dead Man somehow. Until then, please know that I appreciate you all. We will see each other again.
I just saw this now as I went to make sure you weren't dead. Sorry to hear your circumstances were not ideal. Mental health is very important and I hope you were able to get the help and support needed. This is one of my favorite comics and I hope you are able to complete your work one day, which I am also glad that you know where you want to take the comic when you are ready to. You are extremely talented and it shouldn't be locked away. On the job front, know your worth, because you are worth it; if they don't see it, find someone who will pay your worth to not have to work your ass off 24/7. The reaper hasn't come for this comic yet; I just know it. Also I hope you learned your lesson about ghosting your readers :p
Omg, I can't believe I just see this now :( I'm so sorry, and hope everything is ok. You don't need to worry about those things, your health is priority. I send you love, wherever you are. Thanks for everything.
Questions:
The lack of comments have me concerned on the latest update. Is it because the story is not focusing on Abel & Jim? Or is this series no longer entertaining? Thanks for feedbacks! :)
