I made this comic in 2022 (before Feedly got weird with AI) and I’m currently working on making an Ukagaka Ghost for myself, so Ukagaka fans chime in on any code you like!

Maybe I’ll do an Ukagaka comic follow up.

In the mean time I also did a talk on RSS: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJpu...

i have been having such a good time drawing these past few chapters and i'm honestly really proud of the result. now there's only ~100 pages to go (which sounds like a lot but it's really not) and the ending has never felt so close !!!

Alex Assan @alexassan.com · 16d

just queued up the rest of the pages of the chapter! once it's over shaderunners will unfortunately be going on break again :( but hopefully, maybe the final one??

Shaderunners page 369 vs page 678, revisiting the opera incident.

A page from the webcomic Shaderunners depicting a scene where Ezra explains the plot of an opera to Domigo.

A page from the webcomic Shaderunners depicting a scene where Domigo, now older, recounts to Ezra the way he had felt during the scene from the previous page. The layout of the two pages is similar, drawing a parallel between the two intimate scenes.
