Several factors are at play: firstly, a huge twokinds-related side project, and the upcoming Comic-Con in July, which are related. I'm trying to work on the comics too, though. Please stand-by. Really sorry it's taking so long. Edit: Oh, also a lot of book shipping, too.
I can respect that.
Second'd.
Tom, take as much time as you need. All we need is proof that you're still alive, and since we have that, we're all good. Thanks for the news.
I consider his death not being announced and the rest of the plot not being posted anywhere as proof enough that he is not dead, but this is good too.
Anyway, if you really feel bad about not being able to create and upload a comic on time, there is always that ‘Lore Filler’ idea I pitched a while ago. Just simply sketch something like a weapon, a set of armor, an aerial view of a town, a random person, an animal, foliage, whatever, and just make up some bull crap story which expands upon the world you have created which would otherwise have little to no way of getting to your readers. For example…

Located deep within Snow Wolf territory, the Human village of Ditteridge is an unusual case of Keidran-Human cooperation. It was originally humanity's farthest colony, built during the Great Expansion of the Human Empire. However, after the expansion ended, Keidran began reclaiming their territory, and Ditteridge found itself stranded. The snow wolves were just in the process of sending warriors to claim the village when an unusually severe winter storm blew through the area. The wolf soldiers caught out in the storm were forced to seek refuge. The Human villagers, unaware the wolves were sent to destroy them, sheltered the soldiers in their own homes and kept them alive through a winter that lasted an entire year. By the time spring finally came again, nearly 400 days later, the wolves no longer felt like destroying anything.
The Keidran allowed the village to stand, and although it is technically still a Human village and supported by the Human Empire, it's population is actually over 60% Wolf Keidran now. The village is notable as the only Human settlement that legally allows (and even culturally encourages) marriage between Humans and Wolf Keidran, at least at the local level. Due to its remote location and harsh environment - and because they brings in valuable trade with the Snow Wolves - the Templar have not made any serious effort in trying to enforce their anti-Keidran laws on the village, yet.

I believe in one of your UStreams you said something about how it was socially acceptable for the children to run around with their feet uncovered and somewhere else something about how they start training for the military at a young age. Just expand upon that and put it here.

In another one of your UStreams you said something about how Keidran are not carnivores and can eat fruits and vegetables as long as they don't have starch in them. Once again, just expand upon that and put it here.
