You might remember Steven from his brief appearance in the first chapter, or more recently, him popping in during this chapter. He seems to usually keep to himself

Hmm. Interesting how Trinity views the Collective. Much more threatening than how Ms Shepard thought of them…

Leon severely underestimated how difficult it would be to get these two to argue with each other

See, Leon, this is why Ms Shepard chose not to wear her coat in this place.
It’s time for the fourth and final week of SpiderForest promos!!! Have you checked out any of the new stories? Which ones are your favorites? I’m personally a big fan of how Pneuma Vita’s start has been!
New Member Spotlight – Broken Places
Politics, natural disaster, or the advances of technology can make the world a harsh place to navigate. Will these characters find treasures lost to a time before disaster struck their land? Or spiral deeper into chaos along with it?
Malatona When It Rains – Despite promises over the last twenty years, the Isahek river is flooding again. When a tax collector is shot by its banks, the provincial court must respond to the rising violence. The members of the court vie for control of their crumbling empire.
Pneuma Vita – After obtaining a mysterious book about plants, Lyka discovers a medicinal plant called “Pneuma Vita” that may be able to treat her father’s worsening asthma. But it grows in the farthest region outside of the city, far beyond everything Lyka knows…
Hollow Trail – A post apocalyptic adventure webcomic following Rosario as he explores a scary and mystifying world left behind many years ago, what type of friends will he make? And what lies along these hollow trails?
Ultraviolents – A near-future gay body horror comic about two men using underground blood sports and body modification as therapy.
LOSTLAND – A supernatural, post-apoc adventure story following the tales of four travelers and the little twists of fate that bind them both to each other, and to one man’s grand design for this new world.

Anyway Leon couldn’t swim and despite two layers of protection, drowned in that chamber. RIP
New Member Spotlight – Falling into a New World
Whether you’re stepping into a whole new planet, a seemingly-normal game, or your wildest dreams, these comics will let you escape from your normal responsibilities. But tread carefully, you may find more than you bargained for!
Ash in the Wind – Alexis is a disillusioned college student who has lost interest in the real world. When a chance turns up to investigate a paranormal legend (and with the boy she’s been eyeing) she seizes it. But when dreams become reality, reality becomes a nightmare.
Foreach – Jasper is an exorcist-in-training who feels beaten down by the pressures of life, friends and family. When it gets to be too much, Jasper likes to sit down and play a videogame called LOVE BOMB… but there’s more to this game than seems at first…
Slumbertown – Slumber is an unsuspecting ghost town that ALSO happens to exist as a collective dreamscape of its 32 villagers! No one can quite remember how they moved to Slumber – or who or what is keeping them there.
NEVERMIND – Two 20-somethings, Jethro and Dolly, and their experiences with extraterrestrials, particularly a curious cyclops princess named Diesel, during the extremely crusty, grungy year of 1994.
Broccoli Soup – Broccoli wakes up one day in a featureless void with no idea how they got there. The only other inhabitant of the void is their mysterious creator (and Very Best Friend) Lady Doris, who sends them away on missions to other worlds. Broccoli must bring Politeness and Goodness to the universe and make their creator proud, but there’s one problem: they don’t really know what Polite and Good even means.

Oh God Luca’s been spending too much time around Leon
New Member Spotlight – Normality and Paranormality
Normal is relative. Enjoy these comics that explore what happens when a touch of the silly, surreal, or supernatural bleeds into the lives of normal people.
The Bright Side – Emily is a prickly and reclusive teenage girl. After a couple of random tragedies, she befriends Death – who turns out to be naive, neurotic, and completely endearing. Despite being eternal, “Dee” has at least as much growing up to do as Emily does.
Monsters & Myriads – A midwestern exploration into the spooky fantastic that haunts closed arcades, moon-frosted cornfields, and shadowed school hallways. Highschoolers band together to uncover a gothic conspiracy that threatens to unravel their school, town, and world.
Prophet of the Sun – A story about a selfish loser who would rather lie to themselves and everyone around them than face discomfort. This would be ok if they weren’t also the unstable vessel of the Sun, a strange new god intent on destorying the world.
Lauren Ipsum – Lauren Ipsum is a professional librarian, part-time writer, and an intellectual culture enthusiast (nerd). Join this looney rabbit and her friends running the esteemed St. Paws Library!
The City Under Saturn – A group of mobsters slowly begin to uncover that the man they’re are working for may not be entirely human and that those contracts they signed may be more than legally binding.
The Organization of Ghost Hunters – After an encounter with a mysterious stranger, Ian Cooper discovers he’s able to see ghosts. The friendly dog spirit that follows him around isn’t so bad, but when dangerous spirits start to show up, he may need a little help.

Sorry about your hearing, Luca
Exciting news, everyone! The submission season for SpiderForest has ended this year. NOW we get to see the awesome comics that made it into the collective! I’ve got some new all-time favorites among the ones for this week alone, but there’s even more great stuff to come! Thunderstar and Heart of the Storm have already captured my attention, and I can’t wait to check out even more of the stories!
New Member Spotlight – Unlikely Heroes
Pirates and pilots, serpents and sorcery! Jump into adventures and mystery with these comics about taking your destiny into your own hands – whether you’re ready or not!
Thunderstar – Amanda is an adventurous goth girl and a great pilot in the Royal Starfleet. When her boyfriend is kidnapped by a cult for their own nefarious purposes, it’s up to her and her high-strung engineer to defy the odds, cross the galaxy, and save him.
Teague Fagan – A sea serpent in the form of a human hermit is exiled to an island somewhere in the Celtic Sea while mermaids mysteriously, yet ruthlessly, hunt him down. But a new threat may pull him out of hiding…
Saffron Wave – Set 3000 years ago on ancient Crete, Nephele lives in uneventful solitude, until her world is upended by strange sea monsters and an even stranger woman giving her magical girl powers.
Heart of the Storm – Tempest–a wanted pirate with no ship and no attachments–spends her time dancing around the gallows and making a mockery of the law. She takes and does as she pleases, consequences be damned. But that might all change when she saves Callisto’s life.
Yokoka’s Quest – Yokoka is a catgirl on an adventure and winging it, but what could go wrong? Right?
Entropy – Arielle is an impulsive, headstrong blacksmith’s apprentice who comes in contact with a strange magical artifact that seems connected to an otherworldly being. As she experiments with its power, she may have accidentally kickstarted the apocalypse.
