Definitely not a stargate.

ANIMATED VERSION HERE.

AAAAAND the animated pictures are back, along with wood texturing, and best of all, more lore!

*Children Cheering Soundbyte*

Anyway, the portals don’t all look like the one in the 9th panel. They vary in shape and size, the largest being around three to four stories in diameter.  The reason it’s black is simple – the light doesn’t reflect (it just goes through) – so it appears black to our eyes. More lore will be explained the next couple weeks. (In around a month I can start talking about the semantics of magic.) Also, If there happens to be an error in the drawing somewhere, It’s probably in the process of being fixed. I noticed right after 4:00 that the characters had no irises, so I had to rush in and add those.

I made some more random art.

Spider Creature:

He's actually about 20 feet tall, Don't ask about the physics.

Desert Fortress:

Winged Mage Fight:

Also I’m having trouble growing my hair out to look like Ian (See last week’s comic.) I’ve got 3 weeks.
