Just in Time for Halloween… Pirate Jill!

Yesterday (after midnight, which technically made it Halloween for me) I finally managed to complete the “Ghost Ship” stage in the “Raid Mode” of Capcom’s video game Resident Evil Revelations. As a result, I can now play as the dread pirate Jill Valentine! As you may be aware, I’m a big fan of Jill and yes, this is going to be a thoroughly self-indulgent post.😋

I’d completed the “Ghost Ship” stage on the 3DS version of Revelations a long time ago, but I do recall being envious of the fact that when Revelations was first ported to other platforms, it was going to have a pirate-costumed Jill Valentine as an unlockable reward. So last year in June, when I bought Revelations from Steam during a sale, I was happy that at long last I would to get the chance to play as Pirate Jill. Little did I know what I was in for. IT. WAS. HARD!😫

New Web Comic: “Night of the Werewolves”

This a teaser post for a new web comic (the first, in fact) that I will be publishing here on Moe Dimension. As much as I enjoy making illustrations, the truth is my main passion is storytelling. The thing is, though, that I’ve struggled to find the best way to present my stories. In the past, I’ve tried writing novels and comics without much success. Therefore, this time I’ve decided to try my hand at a web comic.

When I say web comic, I am referring to something resembling the adventure comic strips that appeared in the newspapers of yesteryear, like The Phantom, for example. So this won’t be a gag-based web comic, but a narrative-based one. In other words, an illustrated story, told in short snippets. I think this format will suit me quite well, as it will make production more manageable, as well as allowing me to prioritise story over art. Anyway, I think that’s enough build-up.😄 Here is a promo image I’ve prepared for Night of the Werewolves.

As you may be able to guess, this will be a dark fantasy adventure, leaning towards horror. Accordingly, I will post the first strip of this web comic on this coming Friday, which is of course Friday the 13th. After that, I will attempt to post new strips as regularly as possible, but because this is the first time I’m trying this, I’m not sure how smoothly it will go. In any case, this will not be a long story: it’s main purpose is to test how doable a web comic is for me. If I decide it is doable, then my plan is to start working on a longer story.

So that’s about it for this teaser post. If your interest has been piqued, please come back to Moe Dimension on Friday, although there will probably be other posts in the meantime. Till next time, au revoir, arrivederci and may the force be with you!😊
