I thought Hidden Knowledge took place in Brazil.

(I think I saw a flag once...)

OK, I've danced around this topic long enough, and I can't sleep, so here we go...

I've never really officially divided the stories up into universes. It's been pretty ad hoc. It is clear that there are characters that appear in multiple titles, and that some titles *can't* happen in the same universe for whatever reason.

There are a few universes I can think of off the top of my head. In best comic book fashion, we'll give them names or numbers.

D-Prime: This is basically our world right now with no major changes (if you read a newspaper and looked at world map nothing would be off), except whatever technology or "hypnosis" is used in the story. This is kind of the default universe if there's no reason to move it to another one. A few titles that I think are here are An Education, Unknown Pleasures, The Persuader, Sudo, and Trigger Warning. (The Ring Cycle is elsewhere because the MC is magic-based.) There's also one title that is here but telling what it is would spoil a plot point.
   Does magic work? No.
   Are there superheroes? No.

D-1: This is the universe SJI, Beyond Rubies, and The Hidden Knowledge are in.
   Major changes:  The Republic of Equinoxia is where Ecuador would be (which is where The Hidden Knowledge takes place). Wilmot College exists, with all the entailments of that.
   Does magic work? Yes.
   Are there superheroes? No.

D-2: This is the universe Expanded Universe is in. I'm not sure what other titles occur in it (see below for guest page action).
   Major changes: Magic works. Women can have boobs that size and still stand up.
   Does magic work? Yes.
   Are there superheroes? Yes.

D-3: This is the pocket universe in which Micah enslaves Erin and Danielle. It's separate from either D-Prime (which is where An Education lands), or D-1, where SJI is. Characters can be in more than one universe at the same time, with significant variations.
   Major changes: Erin's just an aspiring actress with no magical abilities (although she still has huge tits). Danielle is still Danielle. The timeline for Micah is different from the Micah in D-Prime.
   Does magic work? No.
   Are there superheroes? No.

D-4: This is the pocket universe in which Micah enslaves Fellicity. Like D-3, it's separate from either D-Prime or D-2, althogh it's much closer to the D-Prime AE than D-3 is.
   Does magic work? I dunno. Maybe.
   Are there superheroes? Well, there are definitely superheroines.

D-5: This is the universe that Enchanted Summer is in. It's pretty much our world (allowing for magic to work), except the town of Nephilim is where Fort Bragg, California would be. I'm kind of tempted to put Takeout in it. I am sure there are other titles that take place there and we just don't know it yet.
   Does magic work? Uh-huh.
   Are there superheroes? Doubt it.

D-6: This is the universe that Gig Economy takes place in. Our world, plus mind- and body-controlling rabbit ears. I think it might also be the universe that Free Trade Zone takes place in (years later). I am tempted to move An Education here, because the idea of Amelia in the ears is very appealing.
   Does magic work? We're going to pretend the ears are tech and say no.
   Are there superheroes? Nah.

D-7: This is D-Prime only magic works, but on a local basis without universe-changing effects. The Ring Cycle and Final Form are here, for example.
   Does magic work? Yes.
   Are there superheroes? Negatory.

There are others, but my brain is a bit fuzzy at the moment.

So, open season! Let me know what you think. (I'll do the numbering, thank you very much. :-) )

Excited for the vibe of Check for Traps (an extension to our roleplaying adventures perhaps) and also for more Trigger Warning whenever it arrives

Script: Daphne • Art and Lettering: OneDollarBilly

It would be fun to get back into that universe!

Do you have discrete universes that you think are linked together? I know there's been crossovers between some of the comics. I think BR and Hidden Knowledge have that..

Seeing Sudo on that list is more than enough for me

(I mean sure, another In-Law unit would also be great, but this is the one I really enjoy*

I’m desperately waiting for the next In-Law Unit issue

(I mean sure, another In-Law unit would also be great, but this is the one I really enjoy*

We thought you might like that. :-)

So, by my reading, just because a title is not on the list, does not mean that it won’t be releasing at some point soon? This is just a list of current works in progress, not finished works set to be released?

Yes and no. The list on the Forum is the list of works-in-progress, but going forward we're going to be posting titles to the calendar as soon as they are complete and ready to publish. Any title that gets published, minus some strange situation, will appear on the Forum list at some point.
