Site Hiatus

It's been a while.

2214 hasn't been updated since 2010 started, but I've been drawing a LOT of 2214-related material during this time. It's for an animated project meant to be a supplement to the comic. After taking so long to update the comic time and time again, I decided that something new should be created to bring the story to life.

The bad news is that site updates are going to be placed on hold during this time. The project is expected to take the better part of the year. The comic may be updated during this time but I can't make any promises right now. Updating the comic has taken a backseat, as most of you already know, to my freelance work. Since this animation project is meant to be an important portfolio piece and proof of concept, it will also take priority over the comic for now.

The current chapter in the 2214 web comic is drawing to a close; there is one page left to do for this chapter before going on to the next. Overall, there are only two chapters (three, depending on how it's organized) remaining as the story will come to a conclusion within the next 30 comic updates or less. I look forward to ending the story properly - it has been seven interesting years - but I also eagerly anticipate moving on to the next big project.

2214 is, for the most part, a largely unfinished work, both in the update schedule and the pace of the storytelling in the comic. Depending on how things go, I'd like to revise the story and create either an animated series, a black-and-white printed manga version, or go on to write an entirely new story and begin a fresh series.

Keep an eye out for updates in this column or the RSS feed. Some parts of the ongoing animation project may be posted in the gallery sections.
