🕑 Added 2022-09-03 10:40:58 +0000 UTCI can’t believe we’ve finally reached the end of volume one, it has been a long time coming. It’s no small task completing a graphic novel, but there’s so much more work to be done. Now it’s time for me to write in finer detail what is to happen in volume 2. I already have a broad overarching plan for the next two volumes, but it’s the details of each scene that I need to get into. That should take a couple of weeks, but I’ll try to keep fresh content coming for you all. Stuff like, character designs and conceptual artwork for volume 2. There’s so much to look forward to!
Tomorrow I will release Simon Roy’s cover artwork for issue 4. On Monday I’ll update the PDF folder to include issue 5 and the new cover. There’s also the imperium trooper figurines that’ll be available soon enough, they’re just going though the prototyping phase right now. I’ll also update you with news concerning the physical release of Humanity Lost: Volume one, which will be titled REBIRTH. All that being said, it will be a little slower this month than usual, but please don’t go anywhere.
Some notes of process:
For volume 1 I went through a creation process of completing the comic in stages. First I went through the writing phase, then the pencilling phase, then the inking phase, then the colouring and lettering phase. Some phases, like the inking phase, took a whole year to complete. I wont be replicating that process for volume 2, I’m going to try something new. I’m doing this because the other process meant that there wasn’t a complete page for a full two and a half years after first putting pencil to paper. All you have seen on Patreon thus far is the colouring phase. So for my new process, rather than just doing one phase at a time, I’m going to complete a single page in one go, this will mean you will constantly get new artwork and it’ll also be an insight into my new art process. It’ll most likely be interesting for aspiring artists who follow me on here, it’ll be an inside look at how a comic is made, or at least, how I make comics.
I want to say thanks again to you all for continuing to support the work I do, it’s only possible because of your kind patronage.

There’s more to come in this next issue, we’re going to see Deicides origin story and learn why he betrayed the All-Mother. It’s more that the All-mother isn’t what the Overfathers think she is and that she has been telling them lies their entire lives that will change Oughrigadds point of view. To even begin to question his foundational beliefs of reality is a great way to break his conditioning and bring them over to the side of the galactic union.

Interesting from a reader point of view, yet i don't see how this flashback can made Oughrigadd change his point of view about this rebellion against AllMother. All of this it's just old history. I wonder what Deicide have in minde after that

I’m glad you’re paying attention to all those little thematic details Gabriel, thanks! I’ve got so much more in store for Losté this next volume, I can’t wait to show it all off.

Great stuff! I like the focus on Sam’s reaction as the last panel and the subtile hint of Deicide. Sam’s the main character, so it’s good to bring it back to his shocking reminder of his life Great breaking time for the next Volume!
