brightknightie: Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, floating on a cloud, as drawn by Red of Overly Sarcastic Productions (Other Fandom OSP JttW)
Yay! Pre-orders are open for the first hard-copy edition of the first eleven chapters/issues of the webcomic Aurora by OSP Red! I have pre-ordered.

We can pre-order from Bookshop.org, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-million, all the usual suspects. Get the pre-order details directly from Red's page. In addition to the first 11 chapters/issues (including covers), the hard-copy will have:
  • Introductory author’s note
  • Author commentary at the end of each chapter
  • Development sketches and extra art pieces
  • A certain character's diary entries (never before seen)
  • and more

Aurora is a fantasy webcomic very big on found family, the power of friendship, and identity. It also has its share of self-sacrifice and hurt/comfort. It's one of those fantasy universes where most everyone is humanoid but not everyone is human, gods/demigods muck around in human affairs for fun and power, and there's a pile of worldbuilding slowly revealed. The art style has many influences -- I believe that I can see Elfquest and Girl Genius and a lot of cartoons -- but is awkward to sum up. Lots of floofy hair, few detailed backgrounds? The artist made a font of her own handwriting. To start from the beginning, check out the archive.

Or jump right to the current page. Red reliably publishes 3 pages per week, give or take a couple of vacations per year. We're presently in Arc II Chapter 4 (aka issue 27).
