I'm alive!
I've just had very little time to draw the comic. Still trying to workout a production schedule that lets me juggle the comic along my son and work. I promise content's coming! I've just been very VERY busy this year.
Hope everyone's having a great summer! ^w^
Without going into too much detail, over the past month, I got forced onto a day-work schedule causing me to lose a ton of sleep, crashed my car on my way to day-work schedule because of lack of sleep (i'm fine, we were going like 2mph but my car got fucked up), ripped the entire kitchen apart trying to exterminate ants, our fridge broke, i gave myself a handful of back injuries as i usually do from training too much and not sleeping enough, and we had a death in the family, all while taking care of my now 5 month son (who i am very VERY proud of and he's growing so well and learning so fast ^w^).
Anyway I'm back. The comic is on a VERY SLOW but steady production while I try to get my shit back together. New update coming at the end of May if not sooner (trying to give myself a lot of wiggle room @_@)
IT'S A BOY!
And he came early, which means everything is going to be late! Probably really REALLY late!
For those of you who didn't know, my amazing wife Nancy (who voices Molly and Cherri in the animatics) has been pregnant since March. And our little Sprout (who now has an actual name but we keep calling him Sprout out of habit) is now in the NICU. He's very healthy and feisty! He's been kicking and screaming since he got here. It took 3 nurses to hold him down and put him is IV (which he's already ripped off twice along with everything else they keep trying to tape to him). He's just very very tiny but he's trending very well and his mother is too!
TL;DR: The comic will be delayed while I take care of the newest addition to my family!
So if you can, try to use this time to try to share your hyperfixation with the forgery comics with your friends instead! Thank you patience and thanks for reading! ^w^
Okay so the Legacy arc is coming I PROMISE. We just hit a lot of setbacks during the recording phase because my voice actors keep getting sick! All the drawings are finished though! And I'm really REALLY hoping to finally get it all put together before the end of this month! ;w;
I am now OFFICIALLY finished drawing all of the frames for the next animatic. I'm hoping we can get through all the recording in a month. And then I'm hoping I might have time to animate a few gifs to add to end sequence like Mimzy dancing or something.
So the plan is to have the Legacy arc finally debut a little after Easter if possible!
Lotta things might still cause delays, but once the animatic drops, comic updates should return to updating once every 2 to 3 weeks! ^w^
Thank you all for your patience and for sharing the series with friends! I hope the next arc doesn't disappoint! ^w^
Just a quick little update for those of you who only follow on tapas, and don't see tumblr or discord updates:
Family, work, holidays, and snow have slowed production, but I'm more than half way through drawing the next animatic! It's just a very busy scene and there's a LOT of characters to draw in each frame.
The Legacy arc is coming! I'm actually well over 20 out of what will probably be a little over 70 frames into drawing the animatic. Sorry for the radio silence, I've just been very busy.
I'm hoping to have the animatic for the Legacy arc debut sometime early next year. But between work and seeing friends and family for the holidays that could quickly snowball further away. But rest assured it is being worked on! And I can't wait to start delivering stories to all of you again! ^w^
So use this time to show the Forgery comics to your friends and get them involved with your perfectly healthy obsession! More content is coming soon!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Thank you all for putting up with the hiatus and constant delays this year! I’ve still got one big exam, 3 small small exams, an area knowledge exam, and one final exam to go, before I’m officially off probation. So sadly there will probably still be many delays for the next few months. But I promise I’m doing everything I can to finish my probational period as quickly as possible (and apparently I’m making really great time compared to my coworkers O_O)!
Just want to thank everyone for all the support, especially all the kind messages and flat out lectures to focus on myself and make sure I get enough sleep. As much as I love my new job and appreciate everyone telling me to take my time, I’m still in a huge rush to get back to drawing the comics! I have way too many stories to tell with these characters and I’m sick of sitting on them!
Also if I had more time I would’ve drawn another christmas doodle with these three as the ghosts of christmas past, present, and future. ...and a bonus one of flashback versions of young Charlie, Mimzy, and Molly! BAH!
Here’s hoping I’ll get back to drawing soon!
Thanks for reading and thanks for the support!
Have a very merry Christmas! ^w^

New comics are on the way, I PROMISE!
Just still juggling my new work schedule with family and comics and junk. Hoping to have the next comic up before the end of this week.
And I'm hoping to post a new comic every 3 weeks after that. A 3 week update schedule should be sustainable for me at least until I get off probation. ^_^;
