Science Fiction Yuri Graphic Novel 'Always Human' Volume 2 Announced; Creator Begins Releasing New Webtoon

On June 15, Ari "walkingnorth" North announced on Twitter that the second and final book in her science fiction romance series Always Human will be released in print in Summer 2023 from Little Bee Books. The graphic novel includes all of the original webcomic's second season, chapter 38 through the epilogue.

Always Human was initially published as a WebToon Original from 2015 to 2017. The first season was adapted into a graphic novel by Little Bee Books in sponsorship with GLAAD. The publisher describes the first volume:

In the near-future, people use technology to give the illusion of all kinds of body modifications-but some people have "Egan's Syndrome," a highly sensitive immune system that rejects these "mods" and are unable to use them. Those who are affected maintain a "natural" appearance, reliant on cosmetics and hair dye at most to help them play with their looks.

Sunati is attracted to Austen the first time she sees her and is drawn to what she assumes is Austen's bravery and confidence to live life unmodded. When Sunati learns the truth, she's still attracted to Austen and asks her on a date. Gradually, their relationship unfolds as they deal with friends, family, and the emotional conflicts that come with every romance. Together, they will learn and grow in a story that reminds us no matter how technology evolves, we will remain . . . always human.

The series tells a very relatable and human story about two people falling in love, understanding each other, and navigating a relationship. It has received praise for its characters, vibrant and colorful artwork, and inclusion of diverse identities. Erica Friedman gave the first book a perfect 10/10 score on Okazu, calling it "a radiant story of love, of life, and of a hopeful future."

North also announced that she was working on a new webcomic, Seven Days in Silverglen, which she is releasing on Webtoon Canvas. It is a supernational "monstergirl romcom" following Tess, a gorgon, who has a crush on her coworker.

Seven Days in Silverglen is the author's first new release since her webcomic Arial Magic went on indefinite hiatus after its second season ended in August 2019.

You can read the first three chapters of Seven Days in Silverglen now on Webtoon Canvas.

Check out volume 1 of Always Human digitally or in paperback and hardcover formats, and look forward to the release of volume 2 next Summer: https://amzn.to/3mUJXEz

A list of my favorite webtoons

Not ranked, just in the order I can remember them

1. Muted

Gay, fire, plants, toben, what more can I say? 2. Lore olympus

It’s a greek god modern times AU type thing and I love it so so much. it focuses on hades and persephone

3. mage and demon queen

It’s set like a video game, there’s a hot demon queen, it’s great. 

4. acception

A fashion dude named arcus and his reluctant goth best friend! 

5. Luff

I’m a sucker for soulmates. Luff also has that right amount of dystopia

6. Cursed princess club

it’s funny, lighthearted, and has so much potential for theorizing! 7. high class homos.

it hasn’t updated in forever but it’s adorable and the people in it are friendship goals

8. miss abbott and the doctor

ROMANCE!! so much romance!! slice of life! old fashioned! Cati is brilliant! I highly recommend

9. Siren’s lament

love triangle, mermaid curse, disaster bi best friend, cryptic grandma, it has it all.

10. SubZero

DRAGONS. DRAGONS AND MYSTERY AND AMAZING ART.

11. everywhere and nowhere

meet William rosencrantz and Anne guildenstern. they travel through time, it’s great, but can they stop the end of the world?

12. Always Human

it takes place in an alternate reality where real life mods are a thing, it’s got nonbinary representation and a whole lot of lesbians. it’s a cute love story and it’s perfect if you just want to read something fluffy. In fact, all of walkingnorth’s comics are like that.

13. Days of Hana

argh my heart. oh lord. It’s a good read but only if you’re prepared to cry. A lot.

14. adventures of god

it’s god. and satan. and they’re buds. and god sits around and drinks beer. it’s chill.

15. edith

I honestly stopped reading this one a while ago for some reason but it’s very good. A writer and her model boyfriend get into trouble.

that was a bad description but the idea is there.

@bewaretheidesofmarchyall you will need this
