Hey Hanno, yeah, it´s taking quite a while, doesn´t it? 🙁 Sorry for the long wait, but we´re in the middle of issue #3, but life seems to be doing its best to slow us down (which annoys no one more than us, I can tell you). Please have some more patience, I can promise you it will be worth the wait!
I just noticed that the hauntedskull.com’s RSS feed contains images in each item’s content:encoded. Is it deliberate that Runa’s feed doesn’t, otherwise could it please be turned on? That’ll allow me to read new pages directly in my feed reader and I’ll be extremely grateful.
Hey Rainlover, please don´t lose hope! We´re hard at work on issue #3 and making good progress – but life has the nasty habit to interfere (we´re doing Runa parallel to our day jobs). So please have a bit more patience! (And thank you for reading!!)
I have been following another strip that has been down just as long if not longer. It makes no mention of a “Day Job”–though I think all strip artists do have one—but it keeps promising “updates soon”,and try to get you interested in other peoples work, or new strips or games(?) they are starting—but the original strip is still in limbo with no updates seen at all on the far horizon.
Yeah, it´s a really frustrating situation – for readers and creators, both! But yeah, we all have day jobs (although I´m a full-time writer, making comics is – at the moment – a fun side gig for me, that doesn´t pay the bills. At least not yet 😉
What I can promise you, though: Noah and Patricia are making great progress, and I´ve already seen the first pages. But we´ve learned pretty quickly that we need a nice buffer of pages before we publish the first one – just to be ready when life tries to screw us again. It´s the oly way we can guarantee that we´ll deliver the new pages on time.
That being said: I feel Runa #3 will be our best issue yet, it´s firing on all cylinders, story wise and art wise. You´re in for quite a ride. It will just take a little longer than we originally planned/hoped!
As I’ve written elsewhere, real life seems to keep getting in our way.
But we’re actually making very good progress at the moment! Most of the comic is inked and coloring has already started. Our Patreons are getting to see new artwork from issue three every week, plus some nice extras like work-in-progress videos and the like. Maybe you’d like to drop by? https://www.patreon.com/critchain
See you soon, space cowboy
Sooner than you think, we hope! 🙂
What’s the term »sooner than you think« to you?

Hey McSinyx, sorry for the late reply! You´re not the first one to mention the problem. 😉
We´re working on it, promised!
I’m starting to lose hope that this comic is ever going to continue

It’s been over one year…still waiting…
Hey Pjeb,
yeah, so sorry for the long delay!

I’ll check it out…
Thank you so much for your support!!! 🙂
The artwork and colors are so incredible and vibrant, as are the characters! Can’t wait for more!
Hi Angeline, thank you yo much!!! You don´t have to wait long, we promise!
You are not switching to black and white…are you ?? I ask because all I see are inks, no color, no text.
