Well fellow Hominerds, that wraps up another chapter in the “Hominids” saga! Things are looking bleak for our heroes. So much has happened and there is still so much yet to come. I’m anxious to get going on Chapter 5!

I’m going to take about a month break to get ahead on the next chapter, but will be posting concept art and updates about Chapter 5 regularly.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the story so far. This is just the beginning!

Next week will be the last page of Chapter 4! It’s hard to believe I’m this far along. You think and dream about these scenes for so long and then suddenly they’re there on paper. It allowing you to move on and finally think about something else. It’s such a liberating feeling.

Icari’s reunion with his father was a big moment for him. Even though he’s misleading his father, he is still standing up to him. You don’t have to know very much to realize their past relationship was a rocky one. For the first time, he looks upon Icari with respect, even if he was willing to kill him only a page before.

I’m really excited about where the story goes from here, but I’ll have more on that next week.

Oh yeah, Icari! Where have you been? What’s his motive for betraying his friends like this? A lot has happened in the last 5 pages and each one has left you with pretty big cliffhangers. I hope it’s not too frustrating and you keep coming back for more.

There are only 2 pages left of Chapter 4 and a lot is going on. There is still more to be revealed!

This week marks the 100th page of Hominids! With the way I do page counts I nearly missed it but hear it is. The timing seems appropriate seeing that this is a big turning point in the story. Nothing will ever be the same. Enjoy!

Perhaps the most epic page yet, I’ve been waiting a long time for this one! To be honest, I was a little intimidated by it too. Not only because of the big double-page spread but also because this is really the first time we’re seeing the humans and neanderthals battling in a war-like setting. There’s been talk about it from the very beginning and I knew it’d be a while before we got to this.

So prepare yourself for the next couple weeks! It’s going to be all out war for several pages. Don’t let that fool you though, this is a very important battle. Everything that happens will have consequences and their world will never be the same!

Since this is a big turning point in the story and if you’re liking it so far, this would be a perfect time to share ‘Hominids’ anywhere you can. The second half of the story is where things are really going to take off! https://hominidscomic.com/

This week the team finally makes their way out of the cave, albeit slightly empty-handed. I really wanted Icari to leave the cave in the opposite manner to which he entered. He’s not happy about this situation and it’s just the icing on the cake that the rest of the crew didn’t take the mission as seriously as he did. It’s unfair of him to assume that they would put all their best resources into something they don’t believe in but that’s not how he sees it. This feeling of betrayal may have some consequences in the future.

Art wise this was a really fun page. The panel where they were getting projected out of the water and into the trees was particularly difficult. My pencils were just a mess. All in all though, it’s one of my favorite panels.
The things that’s really exciting is that this page leads up to next weeks page.

I’ve been waiting a long time for this one and I think you’ll love it. So make note not to miss is. I’ll be giving little previews throughout the week.

This weeks comic Icari leaves the cave in the opposite manner to which he entered, frustrated and angry he didn’t find what he was looking for. He takes it out where he can which in this case is Clumsy.
I hope we can get back to the cave at some point.
