comics for April 30, 2008 – 04/30/2008

Hi Xyliacs! Happy Thursday, everyone! We are only $25.00 away from $500.00, so I’m extending the donation counter one more day to see if we can make that Claudius wallpaper free to all readers!

Hey, before I forget! Vote, please! It’s a rockin’ pic. Monday it will be up in color!

Today’s page update features a new character! Some of you who have seen my sketches in the forum are familiar with Katharos. But you’ve never seen her in color before…but seeing her in color may lend a bit of speculation…

Well, it’s finally ready. For all of you Talismen fans out there, Return of the Exile Volume I will be presented as Wowio downloads in four montly issues. Each issue will include extra pieces such as concept sketches, promotional images, and extra comics that are unavailable anywhere else. And Issue 4 will end with the Epilogue segment- Ollie vs. Scath…or was it Timmy?…Click on the cover to go to Wowio! After this presentation of Return of the Exile, Xylia will become available on Wowio! I am also considering releasing a sketchbook there, so watch for that. Remember, that the downloads are like donations that you don’t have to pay anything for! Steve and I would be greatful if you would download Talismen- and take a little nostalgic look back…

The Xyliacs Club is still a fun place to be! Lots of great members. There are some sketches and things there that are unavailable anywehre else, so stop and visit, or join!

Thank you all for the nice comments that you are sharing with us on the comment area and in the Xyliac forum. Thank you also for sharing things about yourselves- where you are from, and how you found Xylia! My question today is a little personal

Again, thank you so much for your donations! Here’s the lowdown on the incentive gifts up through today’s update.

We get to $500.00 on the thermometer- Claudius wallpaper is available to everyone!
