| | In a drastic turn of events, comic artist Hans Tseng decides to take his graphic novel series Directions of Destiny off WirePop, instead opting to replace it with a brand new comic titled Lapis Aquae!
Directions of Destiny was added to the line-up on WirePop, a webcomic subscription site which features top-quality webcomics in the style of Japanese manga, a little over a month ago, however, its time spent as a pay webcomic was short-lived. When asked for the reason that brought about this sudden change of heart, Tseng responded, "I just felt so bad about charging for a webcomic which had been free for the past three years. It's like, Oh, lah dee dah, free free free, OH NEVERMIND, SUCKERS!"
Lapis Aquae has been in the planning stages for the past six years, and was originally to be written as a series of novels titled Aqua Alps. However, realizing that prose form was not his focal point, Tseng decided to put the project on hold in order to start the sequential art series Directions of Destiny, which was at first intended to be "practice" for the graphic novel form of Lapis Aquae.
Directions of Destiny has since found a warm place in Tseng's heart as not just a guinea pig project, while Lapis Aquae has taken a significant turn from its original concept. Tseng hopes that his readers will come to enjoy both comics, and he reminds his fans that he greatly appreciates their support! |
