hey! I loved bailin and liyun, and tried to go read the reaper and the waiting, but could only read up to chapter three, because I use the website, and cannot download the app, could I ask if you will ever be posting the rest of the chapters to be available without the app? Thank you for your wonderful work! :)

that is not really up to me, but up to Webtoon, as I have no control over how they decide to publish the comic. It's been recently published into a graphic novel, so you can get the full comic book on Amazon, Indigo, B&N, etc, but in terms of where to read the whole thing for free online... there's no "legal" website that has it all published for free, if you catch my drift.

Bailin and Li Yun is returning for Season 2 on Mermay 6, 2026!!!

Scenes from my new comic A Divine Masquerade, a BL comic about angels and demons.

A fallen angel has to disguise himself to get back into Heaven to investigate a past tragedy, but he has to work with his former best friend, who doesn't know his identity... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It's comedy, fantasy, and romance, my favourite genres mashed together!

some "cinematic" shots from my Webtoon series "Fathoms of Atonement":

Jinshuilang, a mer, tries to atone for his past mistakes that killed his best friend, Huoliu. He was able to save Huoliu's soul for reincarnation. After a century of searching and regretting not having realized his feelings for Huoliu sooner, he finally finds the reincarnation of his best friend, now a human named Wen Honglin. But the price of a second chance may be more than he can bear.

As someone who already has the reaper and the waiting, can you extrapolate on what will be different with this new published version? 👀

Besides the cover, I've fixed some artwork and dialogue to make them flow better. Also, there are several extra pages of art inside that are not in my self-published copy (because I hadn't yet drawn them at the time of self-publishing). We're still in the middle of the publishing process, so I'm unable to divulge too much, but hopefully if the book comes to a bookstore near you, you can check out the differences personally!

Hi there! I am very excited at the prospect of getting The Reaper and The Waiting as a physical book! I just had a question on the preorder: is preordering the only way to get it, or will it also be released to buy at any time? If so, will it be the same price between pre-order and post-release? Thank you, your art is so so lovely, can’t wait to hold a physical copy of it in my hands! 🥳🥳🥳

Yes, it will be available to buy at time of release as well! I'm not sure about Webtoon's internal policies but part of pre-ordering is giving the publisher an idea of how many copies to print. As for pricing, I'm 99% sure it will stay the same... but don't quote me on that, because it's all up to Webtoon's whims.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I'll do my best to answer them!

[jayessart]

The Reaper and the Waiting is officially getting published by Webtoon Unscrolled! It will contain some new art and bonus material!

It will be released on May 5, 2026! You can pre-order it now on Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and Chapters-Indigo!
