Very good stuff. I too would like to see this as a fully realized comic.

I'm glad you finally explained what was going on in THK. I was thinking it was Brazil, then Argentina, and it fit that vibe of being somewhere in Latin America but not quite familiar. Would love to see some Equinoxian foreign students at Wilmot.

D-1 definitely has my three favorite stories so I'd love to see that fleshed out.

And yeah, Enchanted Summer is very much reminiscent of the north coast, I think I pointed that out when it first came out. What sets that setting apart from D-1, by the way?

Thanks for the list! Always cool to know whats in the pipeline!

Out of curiosity what are the average lead times for a comic (not trying to ask when these will be released! Just curious reading the production!)
As i see some comics have a artist only and others have  someone else doing the lettering. No need to be specific just ballpark: writing/story + art + lettering + proof reading? = ?I

The average is… probably not that meaningful, because the range is huge. We have artists that can do a 12-page issue in three weeks, and some that take a year.

The stages in a comic are:

* Me havijng time to write the script.
* Writing the script.
* Pencils/layouts.
* Inks
* Colors
* Lettering

While nearly all of the artists we have do both pencils and layouts, some do coloring and some don't. It generally takes a bit longer if there is a separate colorist, but there are exceptions to that, too: Octavia Moon just bangs them out. :-)

Of these, the one that is usually the longest is the first one. Once I actually sit down and write the script, it's usually less than a day. The part of the art creation that takes the longest is getting to the inks, the colors, and Mr Zipp gets the letttering done in record time.

Our target is 90 days from when the artist (or first artist if there are multiple ones) gets the script until the colors are done. However, the range is huge. Some of it is just how fast they work, some of it is whether they have a full- or part-time job besides art (most do), and some of it is just things coming up in their lives.

One consequence of D-Prime: It means that it is possible for people or things from those stories to interact.

This list is very appreciated. Hopefully weeks without a published issue continue to drop in frequency, but when I log in and don't see a new issue it's nice to know that at least a new issue has entered the pipeline. Personally, that's more important to me right now than the specific titles on the list.

A very small nit.  Fort Bragg is in North Carolina, not California.

I wanted to note that this uses the term "universe" differently than my DapheVerse thread. He's using it to mean "thematically grouped," rather than the more literal "this is a separate universe with its own rules." They don't (or at least shouldn't) contradict each other.

Huh, I thought I remembered some assertion that An Education and Expanded Universe were a shared world, and commenting that it makes sense for them as both series feature unrealistic breast physics and extremely easy/rapid hypnosis.

It's possible! This is my first attempt to create an actual system, so things may get moved around.
