Hello! I haven't been very active here in a while, but that doesn't mean I'm not working on stuff. I'm always making things, and sometimes, I manage to get far enough into a project to comfortably show it to the world. And so, for over a year, I've been working to start a new comic series! It might appear underwhelming for the amount of time I've spent on it, but the truth is that a majority of that time was spent purely on thinking about it. Also art is hard. I really love the ideas I have though, so I'll try my best to present them in a way people can enjoy.

The series is called Boxkid vs. the Ocean

I've had a lot of fun working on this, so I hope to soon welcome all of you to the world of Boxkid. The plan is to release Chapter 1 in January. It will be available to read for free here on Newgrounds, and on the official website, boxkid.net.

To get a feeling for what to expect, here's a finished page from Chapter 1:

As someone who got very used to digital illustration, it's been really refreshing to revisit my roots. Doodling with pens and pencils. The story takes place in the far future and it's about ??? It's about a lot of stuff but mostly it's about Boxkid. And look at him. Isn't he kinda awesome?

I could talk about this forever, but I think I should keep this post short. If you're interested in reading, the best thing you can do is follow me here on Newgrounds. I'll be making a post like this when the first Chapter comes out. (It's actually going to be two chapters but the first is a prologue that will not be a numbered chapter) The next best thing you can do is follow the official account on bluesky. I will also be using that account to announce chapter releases.

Thank you for reading :)
