On September 20th, 2020, in the midst of COVID lockdowns, I published the first page of what was going to be a mini comic to pass the time. It centered around a story that I'd been doodling and daydreaming about for many, many years but never truly put to paper. The caption was "I made a couple comic pages about my OCs :)".
Five and a half years later, and I finally get to see the end of this awful and awesome project. All 241 (approximately) pages of it. I estimate that, in total, about 1500 hours of my life were poured solely into this comic.
It feels totally unreal.
Thank you all so much for your support through half a decade of The Warren! Especially massive thanks to anyone who's ever made fanart, fan videos (!!), headcanons, drawing requests, or even just conversation about these silly little characters. I wouldn't have been able to push through without all of your support. I am so grateful that I've been allowed to see this project through to the end!!
Being imperfect is what makes being mortal so wonderful btw. You only have a limited time to grow; of course you'll never be flawless! That's what makes you alive instead of merely existing as a fact of reality! Isn't that beautiful?
Extremely horrific element she kinda glosses over: She has canonically mind-controlled everyone for a year. They didn't know they were being mind-controlled, but they could all tell something was off. Creepy!
Just discovered “Pygmalion” by The Scary Jokes. “She wants to claw your eyes open” btw. “You love someone you can shape with no will to escape” btw. “You think you’re such a star; what a fraud you are” btw.
