Hi! Just wondering if you are doing ok and if DOTU is on a year long hiatus or if it is on a permanent hiatus, anyway hope you are in good health and that you are recovering from the ending COVID pandemic. Your arts awesome by the way.

Happy Samsid is happy! <3
He looks so good when he's smiling! I wish he'd do that more often, although, with Pogo around it's more like... annoyed, which is funny, too XD

Hey guys, I have an exciting announcement! Demon of the Underground is back on Tapas with brand new mobile format episodes!

I’ve spent the past couple of years working super hard to balance DOTU with a heavier freelance workload in order to pay the bills. DOTU has been running at a reduced schedule exclusively on Patreon, but after a whole lot of 80-hour weeks, new pages are going to be released publicly within the next couple months, or possibly sooner! In preparation for its return, I’m posting fresh vertical scroll versions of all past pages.

The first episode just went up, and two more are coming later today. Then we’ll have daily updates for a while! Chapters 1-3 will post at a fast schedule, so we’ll catch up in no time!

You can also find me on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Discord, and Patreon - check my profile for links. I have lots of exciting stuff coming up in the next few months!

And as a thank you for everyone who’s stuck around, expect to see some bonus sketches and fun stuff here on my wall in the coming days and weeks!

Wanted to say thank you for the information you shared regarding the TOS. As a reader I was a little concerned about this but your messages were very helpful.

It's no problem, and I'm glad it helped! I'm also glad the issue was resolved in a way that didn't disadvantage creators or compromise their ability to independently pursue their own professional decisions. \o/

This week, I launched a serialized prose novel on Patreon showing Merritt's life in the North Sphere before the start of Demon of the Underground! I've been working on it for almost 3 years, so I'm super excited about the launch! It updates on Thursdays 2-3 times per month.

Chapter 1 went up yesterday and is free for everyone to read, and chapter 2 will go up on Thursday with a BIG free excerpt. We're aiming toward the Patreon goal of a brand new mobile-friendly website. You can read the synopsis, FAQ, and chapter 1 here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/merritts-story-8333280

Given the knowledge of how poor I am, will this be released to non-patreon members? Or will I simply have to wait until I have money?
Bob
Bob creator Mar 10, 2017
After the entire story is posted to Patreon (~60 chapters, ~3 chapters per month), AND if we reach the Patreon milestone goal of $1250, the ebook will be released for sale to the public at a typical market price (but free/deeply discounted to patrons). Merritt's story will always require payment in some form. I post DOTU for free, so I depend on Patreon bonus content to bring in a living wage for it. I'm only about 1/3 of the way to a freelancer's living wage, but getting closer thanks to Patreon! I'm trying to figure out a way to offer chapter installments to people who tip a lot with the Tapas app, but I don't have a plan yet, and I don't know if there's any demand for that. If I come up with something feasible, I'll let you guys know.

I'm the type of person with way too much free time, so I'd be will to spend 10 hours of a Saturday, watching all of the ads, to buy the story with coins.

Whoa! It looks like you guys have been participating in the "tipping event" going on today, and I gotta say thank you for all the tips! <3 To show my appreciation, I want to share a bit of bonus art with you. This was a Patreon reward from a previous month - hope you like it! :D
