Description
- The end of Season 4! Way back around strip 20 when I first realized that I was going to stick with Modest Medusa, I had imagined this as the end of the series. Things changed, and I decided that I still have more Medusa stories to tell. More Marah stories too. So I think this is more like the end of the first half of Modest Medusa.
– I’m taking a break before I start Season 5, which will be early next year. In the meantime I’ll be posting guest comics, vacation comics (that’s what I call teh comics I do in between seasons), some “Ask Medusa” and more. So please check back! I wish I could say I was actually taking a break, but I’ll be working on coloring Barry Deutsch’s 3rd Hereville book (due out next year!). I’m also really hoping to do a new Ghost Kiss story. I’m working on a script, but I’m not sure if I’ll have time to draw it. We’ll see.
– Don’t hold your breath for the Season 4 Kickstarter. It won’t happen any time soon. I’m still working to get the Season 3 books delivered to my backers, and probably will be for awhile. There’s no hurry though. The Season 4 book will happen when it happens, and in the meantime I’ll have Season 3 books to sell you when I see you at conventions next year!
– Speaking of conventions, I’ll be heading to Toronto in May for TCAF (The Toronto Comics Art Festival). I’ve never done a show in Canada, so I’m super excited!
– And speaking of Patreon (we weren’t, but…) I spent some time on Facebook and Google+ this week talking about this article about creative sustainability. I think Patreon is important (not just for me, but as a concept). If you’re interested, please check it out. And of course, you can check out my Patreon here. I appreciate any support, and I’m absolutely humbled by the support you guys have shown me this year! Thanks so much!
– Oh, also! My newest art auction ends on Saturday. It’s doesn’t feature Medusa, but maybe that Fairy who fell of the wall and became a pirate was your favorite character?Anyway, you can check out the auction here.

You know the things that you need to pause for a moment. it is not of hesitation but because it is a lot to take in since there are other moments that are connected to it. Take the time mate there will be another one kicking in that will be heavy.

This comic took an unexpected turn to feels-lane. Everyone that Jake and Medusa touched in some shape or form since the beginning of the comic had to ask that question, and really, she might as well be. I'm glad that this isn't the end of Modest Medusa, because there should be way more than this coming.

I'm going to start bawling now. That really touched my heart.
OI! MARAH! WHAT YOU DOING HERE? I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD! (Did the feather down work? . . . . .)
I had to read the different panels again as it was a bit confusing on what context everyone is talking about. (And I couldn't read them straight up, they needed the different voices in my head too.)
Treecko will still forever be my favorite.

That's some tiny little type. I couldn't actually read it on my phone. I had to wait till I was on my computer.

Tiny text is usually quite evil. . . . . .When I'm not the one employing it's work.

Modest is a lucky girl!

I look forward to a return trip to Yeld for Round 2 and hopefully some good old fashioned wholesome revenge.

That's really nice.
Toronto, eh? I'm tempted, but forking over a huge amount of money to TCAF to walk through the door is another matter. I've never been to modern comics convention and can't guess whether I'd enjoy it or be appalled. (My interest in comics is very patchy, and the superhero stuff tends to grate.)
The last comics con I recall was a tiny think at a university, but it was fairly intimate -- I met Vaughan Bode, who gave me a small prize in the art show, and I spoke with Will Eisner after a slide presentation he gave (to a tiny audience of maybe 30 people). Comics cons were a very different animal in the early 1970s.
Be sure to inform us when you have the Season 3 books ready to sell.

From what I understand TCAF is a fairly arty comic convention, with a focus on mostly indie, small press and alternative comics. It's put on by the Toronto public Library. It's also free to attend.

Yeah... the venue is exactly where I thought it is, and it could hardly be better. I need only take a bus to the subway to get there. And May is prefect also. We may meet!
(To be sure I don't just forget, I've subscribed to the newsletter.)

Free? That's my kind of convention. I may have to look into this -- if the travel isn't too difficult for me to negotiate with a roller, it might be possible.
