But, Danny is making excellent progress, and I will have a proper progress report for you shortly. In the meantime, for those not following Danny on social media (which I highly recommend) here's a sneak peak at a recent page! This guy can sling some inks...

Hello all! Below is your latest progress report. Danny's been hard at work and everything has been looking great--plus, he's literally getting better each page, that man is a trooper. 

Also, if your pledge included Add-Ons for my (Clara's) Sketchbook Vol. 5, Sketchbook Vol. 6, or 'mother'47, those have been sent out, as of this morning. Enjoy! And thanks again!

Hello all!

Today I emailed out the download link for everyone who selected 'Hellfire' as a digital Add-On. So that's one reward done!

Also, I, Zach, and Danny, are going to be doing a livestream together on Instagram on June 25th at 2PM CT! Feel free to tune in and watch these two cool guys ink Hopeless pages and the Hopeless cover, respectively, while I moderate--i.e. make sure the conversation stays ever so slightly on track! See you there!
