Happy New Year, everyone!

We couldn’t be happier to kick off 2024 with a brand-new page of Western Deep’s fourth chapter. The suspense is palpable, we know–we’re just as much on the edges of our seats as you are!

As you’ve no doubt seen from our many 2023 posts on the matter, we’ve spent a fair amount of time focusing on Kickstarters and the War of the Western Deep game, and we’re pleased to say progress on all fronts is going well. Obviously though, it’s left little time to focus on the pages themselves, which is something we’re very excited to be shifting focus back onto.

While we’re still not quite ready to commit to a week-by-week page posting schedule, Rachel has been itching to get back to finishing up Chapter 4 and I’m equally excited to get back to writing scripts for Chapter 5 (we have the rest of the story outlined of course, which helps us keep the story arcs and scene order straight).

If you’ve been wanting to keep up to speed on Western Deep, we have a few different social media handles these days on Twitter (@TheWesternDeep) and BlueSky (WesternDeep.bsky.social) and even a nascent Instagram (TheWesternDeep) that I definitely need to post more stuff to.

In any case, we’re spreading our wings a bit this year and hoping to be able to post more pages, in addition to making steady progress on producing Volume 3 books and continuing work on War of the Western Deep (which currently has over 2 hours of early prototype gameplay stubbed out–not bad considering much of the combat encounters aren’t even there yet).

Thank you all for your continued support of our comic and world! We hope that 2024 brings continued success to Western Deep, and to all of you as well!
