It’s an exciting day for From Draenor With Love! After nearly two years of making this comic, we felt we were ready to tackle some new challenges.
What does this mean? Our name is staying the same. The comic will still be about Rades and Vid. It will be an ongoing story from week to week. The format will be less static four-panel and more graphic novel. I also made some changes personally, going back to my roots a bit as it were to ink the comic by hand rather than entirely digitally. Over the time we’ve been doing this the art has changed a fair bit – sometimes it worked, and sometimes (in my opinion) it worked less well. It’s really helped me as I grew into what it meant to do a weekly comic strip consistently. I also think that Rades is an incredible writer and moving in this direction is going to really showcase his talents.
Our website may also undergo a bit of an overhaul and we’re hoping to implement a more user-friendly archive system. Thanks for your patience, we’ll do our best not to break anything terribly important. In short, I am really psyched about the upcoming FDWL! I hope that if you’ve read the strip awhile you will follow along as we change it up and enjoy the changes!
:O! This is super exciting! For us, but especially for y’all. I can’t believe it’s been almost 2 years… So many good jokes and art.
Definitely looking forward to what y’all have up your sleeves 😀
Best of luck!
(I do have to admit when I read “Despair”, my first thought was “You are in the Pit of Despair! Don’t even think… [hack cough] …Don’t even think about trying to escape.”)
Oooooooooooo! I’m interested to see where this goes! 😀
From Rades’ hintings, I’d wondered if FDWL might be shifting from laugh-of-the-week to an ongoing story. With your art and Rades’ writing, it’s going to be awesome, I just know it!
I’m so excited!
I suspected this was the direction FDWL was going, and this chapter page looks totally awesome!
I’m so excited! You two are going to make something even more awesome happen here, I know it. 2 years!! Went by in a flash! <3
😀
SWEET! I’m always down for a good story!
and high five for trying new things its hard but always good to move foreword!
Very excited to see this. I’ve enjoyed the weekly laugh.
However I’m truly in love with a good story. So to me this is a great change.
Heeeeey, I’ve been following From Draenor since the very beginning and both your blogs a bit before that, but I have Compulsive Lurker Syndrome and never commented.
This, though, is so totally awesome I must crawl out of my little dark corner to say, I can’t wait to see what comes next! 😀
Excellent! Well done on doing things you love and trying different things! Best of luck and looking forward to it! 🙂
I’m late to the party on this one but EEEEEEE!
