Nobody, nobody, is getting out of Salisbury alive… and Cates is making damn sure of that.
One of things I’ll be illustrating (and have started to do so already, I hope), is that Jordana isn’t a killer. She is and will be surrounded by those have no qualms in doing so. One of the struggles she’ll face is the world she operates in allows little room for mercy.

The Wolfdhead and Pinky duke it out. This time Jordana is ready and demonstrates her brutal hand to hand combat skills.

and now onto this week’s Spiderforest recommendations:
Spare Keys for Strange Doors by Lucy Lyall – Two experts in the supernatural help ordinary people with their extraordinary problems. Please note: results are guaranteed, but satisfaction is not.
XII: Of Magic and Muses by Kristen Kiomall-Evans – Willow lives in a mundane and restricted school, which ends up being the worst place someone could get gifted a magical necklace. Desperately trying to contain the magic within, this act of futility seems to just make matters worse. As the necklace crumbles the school’s secrets around her, Willow is left to wonder if it was a gift sent by friend or foe?
Damsels Don’t Wear Glasses by Jessica “Alice” Bown- In Persephone, an impossible city of myth, magic and mystery, Lave Faraday is chosen to look after a boy from another world. Now she must fight off the less than savory denizens who seek to take him for their own purposes.
Sorry for the late upload. That happens when one forgets one’s portable HD at home. Haha!
The comic con I attended on Saturday was a great success! Check out how I got on here.

And now onto our SPIDERFOREST comics of the week:
Soul’s Journey by Sophie Pf- Trapped in a wolf’s body a prince has to find a way to stop a war.
Children of Eldair by Jemma Young – A sorcerer saves a girl from flesh-eating demons. After trying to use magic to find her friends, he’s trapped in a vision of the past–one that will help him save the world and the girl he loves.
There’s certainly more to our boy Cates’ than meets the eye… 😉
That was a Transformers pun. Haha!
If you’re at True Believers Comic Art Festival this Saturday, I look forward to seeing you there!
Also, if you’ve enjoyed reading Vanguard, would you mind giving the comic a quick upvote on Top Webcomics?
Thank you!

The Ferrin by Alyssa Laraine Steele – All Elanor wanted to do was finish her Thesis project. Looks like she’s going to have a lot more to write about than just the Ferrin’s social behavior if she ever gets to finish it.
Sunset Grill by Kat Feete – Gangsters. Soldiers. Public defenders. Ordinary people struggling to survive in an extraordinary future. They all have one thing in common: they all drink beer.
And here are this week’s COMICS IF THE WEEK from the Spiderforest crew:
Demon Archives by Dan Sharp- As Captain of the Keleres, Tenzin Dorje led his team to defend the people of Minerva from raiders and rival factions. But when a new enemy destroys the Keleres and seriously wounds Tenzin, he’ll have to face his personal demons to restore peace to the region.

Arbalest by L. Potyondy-Edens – A reluctant monster with six months to live learns to transcend her role in an isolated, fearful village.
At this point, out heroes are totally unaware that Red Coats are in fact just working people, more likely coerced into serving. How will this affect the team? You’ll have to see!
Over on the VANGUARD Patreon page, I’m currently running a competition to name the Wytch’s bow – Suggestions welcome!

And here are this week’s COMICS IF THE WEEK from the Spiderforest crew:
Monster Lands By J. Nelson- Monster Lands is a fantasy/dramedy story that focuses on the axe-wielding, monster-riding adventurer Othera as she battles against the tyranny of the evil queen Eren Lorry! It’s largely a character-driven story, written as sort of a deconstruction of fantasy tropes while also being a love letter to the genre. It is made of numerous short, standalone chapters which form the base for the longer, plot-intensive chapters.
Evil Witch Allie by Kristin Tipping- A comic about some average kids dealing with normal teen problems like babysitting the world’s worst magical girl, solving yet another murder, and getting that darn ghost cat to stop sleeping on the keyboard.
LittleLight Asylum by Julian Dominguez- In a strange orphanage where the little monsters really are little monsters, three friends are constantly getting themselves into supernatural misadventures.

Old Pinky pops out of her trance just in time to see The Wolfshead, flanked by the Wight Wytch and Malakai, come charging out of the Cathedral ready for a fight!
And that’s it for the year! VANGUARD will be back in 2018. I hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year! I really appreciate everyone supporting and reading the comic. You’re the reason I do it 🙂
