A Christmas Ghost Story - (Road Trip Winter Special)
Added 2024-12-24 04:00:34 +0000 UTCThis story is set many years later, with a slightly older Diego returning to the cabin where he encountered the Lumberjack. Originally I wanted to make a very steamy reunion but as the pages developed, I realized its taking on a more emotional and heartfelt direction.
Two songs inspired the making of this short comic, which I encourage you to listen as you pour through the pages: The Roads by Jonah Kagen sets up the beginning of Diego's story of his return to the cabin, and Dermot Kennedy's cover of Carrickfergus drives the story to an emotional conclusion for the reunited lovers.
Also, I've decided to take an art break and pause the membership billing for January and resume it on February 2025 instead. Thank you all for sticking around for my story and art, and for your support all these years.
Happy holidays and a Merry Christmas! Take care, stay warm and stay safe wherever you are.
Music:
Dermot Kennedy - Carrickfergus (Live At Ireland 100: An Old Song Resung)

2024-12-24 04:41:09 +0000 UTCThis is very sweet and very different than I expected from the preview. However, I might be too cynical or horror pilled because seeing them embrace in the daylight immediately made me think, โI hope this doesnโt mean theyโre both ghosts now.โ ๐
