Just to let you know the Space Pack/ Hawk and Flo Adventures crossover has started. The two of them are going to team up to fight Werewolves! I hope you enjoy ^^. Here's a panel from the comic! If you'd like to dive straight into the crossover here's a link :)

Episode 50 of Space Pirate is here!
Remember, this is the LAST FREE EPISODE! From here on out, episodes will be available digitally for $1 on Etsy (Linked in my bio), with chapters in hard copy format for $4 B&W $6 Color.

You can still watch me color this stuff for free on Twitch (Linked in my bio), and Space Pirate Sidequests will start to be published soon. You can even request your own sidequest idea on twitch with enough channel points! So come on over, and lets set off on this new adventure together!

Hey ya'll, episode 49 of Space Pirate is out!

That being said, I have an announcement. For the 177 that are following me here, you've seen regular publications of Space Pirate consistently since February 2020. This has been a wild ride so far that started out as a simple project to just get better at art and writing. Before I knew it, I had over 200 pages and here I am now nearly approaching 800. If you looked at the artwork of episode 1 vs episode 50, you wouldn't even think they're the same artist. That's how much progress has been made here.

Let's not kid ourselves here, I put A LOT of time into this project. Too much for one to not get any form of compensation back for it. I need to be realistic with myself and my readers, if I am to continue this project, it needs to bring some money in. I am now at a place artistically speaking where I am comfortable asking for money for this. March's episode, episode 50, will be the last free episode posted on Tapas. The first 50 will be free forever. From there on, starting in April, new episodes will be available in physical format from my Etsy shop on http://etsy.spacepiratemanga.com or in digital format from https://spacepiratemanga.com (I'm still figuring out the logistics on digital, but I got 2 months from today to figure it out!)

With all that out of the way, I don't intend to leave the free-readers in the dust. I'm planning on launching a Space Pirate Sidequest series, which will be regularly posted gag comic strips. I just haven't decided on a frequency yet.

I will be continuing to work on Space Pirate live on Twitch, so if you ever want to get a sneak peek at what's coming, that's the place to do it! This of course, comes to no charge to you as a viewer.

There's a lot left to tell of this story, the legacy of the Omega Pirate has yet to conclude. The story will be taking a darker turn as the underlying forces driving it fully reveal themselves. I'm excited to hopefully have you all on board!
