New illustrated fiction!

3% of $100 goal

Our current overall goal with the Chio Club is to get to $250/month in total pledges. (That’s across Patreon and Ko-Fi, together.) At that point, we can start making some extra illustrated fiction set in the Messenger and Follower universe. There are lots of stories to tell, and they don’t all fit into the comics!

About

I make lots of comics and stuff, but I'm most well-known for Messenger and Follower, two sci-fi webcomics set in the same universe.

Bugbyte

Hi! I make two webcomics, Messenger and Follower, and both require ongoing purchases of supplies, occasional equipment upgrades, software, and web hosting. Your support helps keep it all going and might occasionally buy me a couple of hours of working somewhere like a coffee shop. :)
