UPDATE - 6.23.14

So here's what's up guys. A couple of friends and I had been giving this a lot of thought for a lot of time now. And by thought I mean countless hours spent a starbucks in the middle of the night or at breakfast over coffee thumb nailing and outlining out plans for this. So we've decided to try to make Hopeless in a game. Not a flash game, not a lame game, something kickass. 

You say oh, sure, that's all well and good, but how do we know? Well, once I get finished with my other game Mystfell (Check it out yo *nudge) 
I'll be dedicating all my time and energy to it. A comic is all well and good, but I'm an over achiever and I want it to really stick out, I want there to be impact. You can do all this with comics you say? Indeed, but I don't believe I have that gift, but I do have a knack for games.

It might change on the outside a bit, but the heart and soul will still be there, I started this project at one of the darkest moments in my life, but hopefully the part that comes next will be the brightest. Thanks for all the support guys ~

Once actual work starts, expect an overhaul on the site - but don't worry, the comics will remain. Yay.

Page 2 is finally up! Sorry for the long wait guys. I'm working on a side project that's also Hopeless - Hopefully I'll have more to show you soon C: There are now three for us! I'm the only one that draws the comic, but for this other project I needed help CX

5.1.13

Chapter 2 is in the works! You can read page one and view process here!

1.30.13

Beta pages are up for review, so that's currently a thing. Hopefully soon there'll be real-life colored, finished pages to share with you guys!
Also, Hopeless got a Tumblr! YAY

Thomisus is going to be making cute little raptor stickers for the site. YAY But we're not dead. We just didn't notice the passage of time. Though after we convene and do art-like wizardry and brainstorming things we'll find the beta readers and see what you guys think. Hell it's been freaking forever, I'm going to have to put some effort into remember what I was doing on that front.

Anyways, expect a chapter 2 soon, with a bit of a style update since I've improved with the art things. Have a cute raptor -

9.2.12

I was right, I always update at the end of the month. Weird. Also, WHAT THE HELL, I've noticed every once in a while I'll get about a hundred pageviews. Interesting *strokes mustache* I'm shocked you guys are still interested. Even enough to take a peek. Anyways, Chapter 2 will be in the same style for the most part, but with minor tweaks in places I know I can improve. I'm also still debating which plot to chase after because A, this was started off of a spontaneous decision and B, I don't know which spontaneous decision is so hilarious it becomes acceptable.

Thanks for stopping by you guys! (I'll fix those broken links as soon as I can. Thanks for letting me know! I get tired and miss things on occasion)

 5.24.12

Chapter 1 is done! Chapter 2 will most likely be a chapter release instead of page by page. For beta readers this is good, because I'll be forced to take a step back and let you guys take a look. I'll probably sketch through all of it and have it available for beta's within the next few days C: I have commissions I'm working on, so this is a "as I have time" project. I usually have a lot of time. Thanks guys!

[I noticed I have a habit of updating at the end of a month...interesting. Well, maybe you guys can assume this will be done by the 24th of next month lol\

4.24.12

New digs guys! The forum has all the topics up and sorted, and with email notification (yay). I'll get everyone's comments at the same time, and you can see what everyone else has to say. So if you join I can send out an email notification alerting you to updates. And hey, if you give a damn about raptors, maybe you have something else in common with someone else lol

The forum is locked to mods only to keep out spam and you have to have upgraded security clearance (makes us sound like spies. Spies rhymes with pies.) to access the Beta forums. I'll start each topic with the date and a short description so it's easy to manage.

4.23.12

I get out of school in another week, so you'll get an update on an actual update schedule in a bit, promise! For everyone that cares and is interested in this comic, thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it and I'll do my best to live up to your expectations! Once I get all my stuff moved over to our new place and I get back to Texas for the summer I'll get to make up a nice new schedule to work to. And I get a nice new shiny computer to work with so I can work on thesis. C:

As another note, we were thinking we might make a novel version to go alongside this one. Granted it wouldn't be exactly the same, but we've been tossing the idea back and forth long enough for it to gain momentum. Both of us are good writers and we know we can do it, so why the hell not?
