Monster Soup

This is the final double-length page. I was also having fun with various halftones on this page, something I usually don’t have the chance to experiment with.

Some random news: Every now and then I take a look at MonsterSoup.com to see if the domain has been released. It was my original plan to have that URL for my comic, but going with MonsterSoupComic.com was the next best thing. (Other comics use “comic” in their URL, so it wasn’t a big deal.) For the longest time, there was nothing at “MonsterSoup.com”. I happened to look at it earlier this week and saw that a website had been created. I also saw a link on the site that listed other Monster Soups, which listed me, as well. :D They also mentioned that someone was wanting to buy the domain from them. If they happen to read this, it wasn’t me.

The original “Monster Soup” for me is an image from 1828 depicting the contaminated Thames River.

Patreon news: I found out that Patreon is doing away with Goals. I did have specific goals I was looking forward to hitting, but they seem unlikely now at how slow I have been gaining patrons. I have been wanting to utilize the other tiers for more perks, but I keep scratching my head at what I could offer. (I’ve mentioned this a few times in the past.) I’ve also been hinting at adding NSFW art to one of the tiers, but my brain begins to overthink things, as always, and I start telling myself, “So, you’re resorting to some form of sex work to make money.” Hahahaha… D: (I blame my upbringing for that shameful mentality.) Marketing and managing things, it’s been a weakness of mine. I tend to default to the mindset of, “If you build it, they will come.” x_x

I need to say this more often: Thank you to everyone who has stumbled upon my comic and has stuck with me through thick and thin. Another Thank You! to those who have chosen to support me on Patreon or through Ko-fi! 💗
