I am *unbelievably* eager to see where you take it in the rest of Volume 2, but I'm sure you've figured that out with all my messages. The writing's been steadily getting better! I just think you need to be a bit less reliant on the images. As it is now, you tend to use the images to show what's happening and then supplementing with text, but I think flipping it vice versa would make it flow better from image-to-text-to-image! Describing more of what's happening from the woman's point of view... can *theoretically* only be a positive, right?

I actually like the idea of the writing with pictures. I wish the sexual themes were explored more thoroughly in the text tho. But good job.

The scene/pov changes are jarring, some scenes/povs are so short its weird to include them at all on their own, should just be part of a longer dedicated pov. Its unfortunate, as I can tell the writing structure would probably work for a comic, it just doesn't read well long-form absent the pictures to do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to "show, don't tell". I'm not sure what happened with Eldrik but it would certainly be nice to see this comic go back into full production. Finding ways to monetize the patreon WITHOUT giving him more work to do(as clearly all the minis and other sketches were way too much) might be the path to look for, assuming he can even be convinced. Granted, his wife/gf was mentioning boundary violations or something when this all fell apart so who knows what really went wrong.

Right, going to just head-off the rumor mill here: the "boundry" comment was referring to stuff like pondering/suggesting additional things or asking if up for doing additonal minicomics, etc, which was more of a difference between Sono (who would be fine with the answer to pondering like 'should we...' being 'nah') and Eldrik (who would generally try to make things work if asked, even if request included "if it isn't a lot of work', etc". I think anyone familiar with Eldrik would know he wouldn't still be doing GFC work if it was something deeper than that. Anyway, that difference in expectations was clarified. The reason Eldrik isn't doing the main comic is his strong desire to NOT do mountains of comic work. Comic pages specifically / there is no scenerio where he goes back to doing weekly pages for another comic. There is 0 chance of him going back to doing main comic GFC pages.
