Hello, all my starved GrayLore fans! It took us a long time but we're finally here, I finally have a new gift for everyone!
GrayLore Sidepieces are shorter than usual-length GrayLore volumes. These aren't predicted to exceed more than 10 pages apiece. Each Sidepiece tells a smaller story that occurs outside the main, more serious story. Sidepieces are a bit more slice of life and tend to lean more comedic than the main volumes. Sidepieces won't deal with as much tragedy or serious events, but they will give information about characters involved in short, digestible pages.
Sidepieces also will be a buffer for me as I prepare for work on the longer, more intensive GrayLore volumes. Know that when I post a sidepiece, there's a much larger volume lurking in the background. Sidepieces don't take nearly as long to make, but they're not what GrayLore is primarily going to be. The other volumes will be our usual length.
Important to note, though, is that from Volume 0 and 2 on, the story will be told in point volumes. Instead of how Volume 1 was the full package, Volume 0 and 2 will be divided up into point volumes, or chapters. 2.0 is the volume coming out first, followed by 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, etc. There's really no way I can fit that whole story into a singular volume until every point is finished.
Also, I feel I should show you the cover of Volume 2.0, at least, since you've been waiting so long. I think you can guess what it's about!
The sidepiece I've posted today explores a simple conundrum - Nishitani is partially colorblind! It's just a little snippet of his lore, you'll know much more in volume 2. Click to read!
I'll try not to keep you waiting as long between volumes. I've learned taking a hiatus that long did me more harm than good. SO much has changed between the last time I posted comics. Like, for instance, how everyone's gotten a major face lift? I don't recognize the art style from GrayLore Volume 1 at all!
Thanks for all your support! Really, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. It really means a lot to me that so many people are interested in my work. I am a bit more active over on YouTube and Discord, so come on over there if you wanna see more frequent, weekly content. You can find those in the footer on my social bar or on my linktree.
