This was actually the first page I drew of the comic, it was a good tester one to see what kind of style and colours I wanted to use! We hope y’all are staying safe and that ‘Maka can bring you some joy~

We’re moving in on today’s Darumaka page! I hope y’all are staying safe!
sand!
We’re continuing with some Alola Darumaka pages and will be seeing how the pandemic proceeds week to week before we decide to start posting Dead City again. Thank you all for your patience and stay safe!
We’ll be posting Alola, Darumaka pages for the time being, so here’s page 5! There’s also a $200/month goal on patreon for two Alola Darumaka pages a week if that interests you head on over to patreon.com/jpawlik where you will get access to pages a few weeks before they’re posted publicly for $1 a month!
Two boys from two very different ways of life getting existential together!
