YO, YOU WATCHING MY STREAMS YET???.
Your support on Patreon is appreciated!
That’s it! That’s the end of Chapter 4 which officially concludes Part 1 of The Roommate From Hell.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my comic, everyone! It feels like the summer of 2016, when I first dreamed up this comic, only happened yesterday. But here we are, 444 pages later (what a number to end on… Remind anyone of 666?). I’ve grown so much as an artist and my career has evolved in many ways, it’s so exciting to look back on.
I bet you are all wondering what’s coming next. Lots of exciting things, that’s for sure.
First of all, this story is not over. I have four more chapters planned for a part 2, which should be a comparable length to Part 1 and will likely take a similar amount of time to release (4-ish years). The series will end with Chapter 8, which will be sad, but don’t worry because I’ve already got my next webcomic cooking on the backburner, and it’ll be a treat. (insert Patreon plug here)
Before we get to Part 2, though, I’m going to be publishing a spin-off comic called Mary’s Day Off. It’s going to be drawn in a slightly less detailed style and update twice as often, and shouldn’t take more than a year to get through. It’s going to be published exclusively on Tapas, because that’s the format that fits this comic the best and I wanted to chill out and just focus on one platform for a while… After this spin-off finishes, though, tRfH will be back on your favorite website of choice. (yes this was why i posted that poll earlier about whether you guys read things on Tapas)
I’m also going to launch a Kickstarter campaign to publish a print version of Part 1, which will include at least one never-before-seen bonus scene (which I’ve been halfway through drawing for, like, a year. So the art-shift on that will be exciting, lol). I know some of you would have trouble getting ahold of a physical copy from here in the States, so I also plan to release bonus scene(s) as ebook versions. More details on all of that soon!
I was hoping to have the script completed already for Mary’s Day Off, but I still have a little bit left. Therefore, I’m going to take a bit of a hiatus to relax and get this new project ready (there’s, like, math involved, so wish me luck. I have dyslexia for numbers (dyscalculia)). Canonically it takes place between chapters 2 and 3, right around Halloween, so I thought it would be fun for the first page to be posted on October 31st! I’ll post a few teasers before then so you can find the Tapas link and get subscribed. I’m also planning to get as much buffer drawn ahead of time as I can, so if you want to read these pages as soon as I’ve drawn them, well, you know where to go. (insert Patreon plug here)
So, uh, we’ve past the one year mark and MDO has been finished for awhile. Is there an ETA on when the Book 1 Kickstarter might launch?
If you need any help with the math, feel free to contact me, Micah. I don’t mean to brag, but I did complete high school level calculus in my junior year. Not to mention that I was the only junior in a class full of seniors, I also had the best grade of both non-AP calculus classes at my school that year. So, yeah. I could definitely help you with any math calculations. In fact, I love calculating. So much so that I have often thought of numbers to help me sleep at night, sometimes. LOL Yeah, I’m a total math nerd/geek. LOL
Thanks but literally the entire comic that was referring too is now finished and published, and the math wasn’t ACTUALLY that hard lol. I was also in accelerated math when I was in high school (I took precalc as a freshman, which was normally for juniors and seniors, then heckin quit because it was the only math class I needed to graduate), I just took 5 times longer to do my homework than everyone else because I had undiagnosed dyscalculia.
Great end to the chapter. Time for me to go do a reread. I look forward to the spin-off!
Woo! Can’t believe we’ve been at this for /fourish threeish years/! It doesn’t even feel like it’s been that long… 444 pages, and all the closer to Shual >:3
You better bet your booty I’m gonna support you in any way I can!
I’m also willing and able to assist in other ways, like I have before ^w^
