Due to family medical issues, Requiem is on indefinite hiatus.
An elderly family member of ours took a bad fall on Labor Day night, and we’ve been dealing with the aftermath ever since. Hopefully, things will get sorted out, but as of right now, doing a daily comic is not something my schedule can allow.
Sorry to have this happen, but as everyone knows, real life comes first….and at least we don’t have too many running storylines on the backburner.

What I still can’t entirely wrap my mind around is how a Throne is a corporate product.
Someone at some point said, “yeah we’ll order 20 of the ‘Hot girl/avenging angel’ model. Hey, can we get that in black? Marketing says black is the new liquid-metal silver.”
I’m not so much interested in what they used to look like as why their appearance changed. The “angel” look has to have a reason behind it – those wings look impractical.
Not if the reason is to inspire awe and shock in those that see it. Its also a way to build up a meme in the subconscious. Perfect camouflage as well. Someone sees a black “angel” in an area, do you think the authorities will believe them?
I’ll get it when I get home.
I’ll get to it when I get home. I’m dealing with two moves right now and things are kind of frazzled.

Got it.
