Well after five and a half years of never missing an update, the time has finally come…
I can’t blame Michael Odom (our kick-butt artist) or Gi (our colorist). This is my fault. Although I write each book in advance, I don’t do the script breakdowns that Michael uses to draw the comic till they are needed, because they are so time consuming.
I was just getting ready to settle down and do a batch of breakdowns when we got hit by Hurricane Harvey. We had major power issues, but other than that our house was spared, but the aftermath of the hurricane was a mess and I spent a lot of time doing volunteer work instead of writing and publishing work.
Things are just starting to get back to normal for me, unfortunately, I still haven’t done the script breakdowns and won’t even start them till this week. Although Michael and Gi are amazing at turning out work, they aren’t Holidays with special powers and they will need a bit of time to get a buffer going again.
If I had to guess, I’m thinking we will probably take 3-4 weeks off to give them all the time they need to make sure they can stay ahead of schedule.
I truly am sorry for the delay, but I swear we will be back!

UPDATE: 10/10 – 17
I have sent 10 months of script pages to Michael Odom! By the end of the week he will have the full script breakdown for all of Volume 3. Judging by his and Gi’s normal schedule, Holiday Wars will return in November!
