Hello everyone! I know it's been a while, and while we're updating again, I appear to be lacking on Patreon once more. I'd like to formally request that if you'd like to keep up to date on everything going on both in my life and about Mitigation and all current projects, I frequent ComicFury far more than Patreon. I'm working on making a schedule for myself to keep track, but until I keep into the swing of it, please keep up here for updates on Mitigation.
I do have some exciting news for you! I took a commission a few months back to do the cover of someone's book, and that book got published! And it's beautiful!!! 'The Many Sins of Rein City' is a YA cyberpunk dystopia about a young girl (Sasha) looking for her missing friend and her father's AI butler/nanny trying to tell her that maaayyyybe breaking into a government facility to go through their backup servers archiving any conversations or recordings from said missing friend's account might possibly be a bad idea.
It took me a lot longer than I wanted to to get around to talking about this book because I'm not really sure what to say about it. I do highly recommend that you give it a read, because the author really did do a fantastic job writing the characters and setting the stage. I love the villains and the side characters, and best of all I love Toby. We stan that sass master!!
I'm currently fighting my mom to get her to read it because she has a particular taste for good literature. If you guys are interested, you can purchase a copy on Amazon

As for that spooky comic I promised, I DO indeed have an update for that. While on my vacation from work, I decided to sit down and do a new puzzle I got; and then I got mad at the puzzle and put it away because I couldn't focus on anything else. Then I grabbed a bunch of printer paper, a ruler, an exacto knife and some glue and made an easy frame reference for all 'traditional' pages (that's fancy talk for irl and on paper) of the Spooky comic. And then I went "man... I went through all this effort to make this very nice frame that doesn't fit normal printer paper....but I've got this nice rectangle now that's the same size.... hey! I know!
And I sat down and made half the pages for the comic over the course of two days before my brain couldn't comprehend shapes anymore. The above picture is the full-page sketch of the cover, and unfortunately that, and the on below is all I'll be sharing for some time! I want to get hype for this comic, but not to the point that the expectations force me to put my hands over my ears. I will be posting regular updates as far as progress goes, and some preview panels in time.
I hope to see you all soon!
