Another delay, I'm sorry to say. Artist block, really, made sure I didn't draw through the holidays. But don't worry--I'm planning on merging the next issue with the one after, so next update will be two stories in one.

Just wanted to report: I've been uncharacteristically unproductive this month. The next issue was supposed to be scheduled for the 14th, but I don't have it ready. Sadly, this time I don't have a backup ready to go, so this just means no update this month, and I'll be updating it for October.

I blame my allergies for part of this, as it's impossible to think straight enough to draw when you're sneezing all the time, barely able to get a good night's sleep due to an impossibly stuffy nose. But that isn't the be all and end all, and I take ownership of not buckling down when my allergies weren't bothering me (normally they're in springtime, but we've had a lot of smoke over here).

I hope people forgive me for the skipped month. Sadly, I'm likely to lose at least one subscriber. Always happens when I have a month of no update (since the comic updates monthly).

As a consolation prize, here's a link to a YouTube video showcasing the Almighty Protectors theme song. It's good music, at the very least: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPXadXTCiBk

I love it! With your permission, I'll post this with my fanart showcase on my birthday. Also, would I be permitted to also put this in a print version of my comic, with proper credits? Would be a long way off, but still. I'd assume if I did you'd want to have the associated link be to Realmwalker?

I'm not done with the upcoming issue. It's LONG. So, despite my desire to keep a regular monthly schedule, I'm delaying issue 32 until February. While I've been taking a heck of a time to finish this issue, there's no doubt in my mind that I'll be done in time.

But, to keep you getting some sort of content, here is a preview of the cover, drawn by bogmonster from devaintART (not drawn to be a cover, and certainly not to this issue, so nothing should be read into it as far as what may happen in the plot):

The next issue of Almighty Protectors would have gone up tomorrow, but I need more time. It will only be delayed a week, but I still wanted to mention it.

I just wanted to say, because I'm happy about it, that Almighty Protectors has finally reached the first milestone! It's nice to see 25 people are interested in the comic enough to subscribe so far. And while I am eyeing that next milestone, it's ultimately important to me to also be grateful for what I have. It's possible I'll never get to 100, and I'm grateful for everyone who's shown an interest.
