First of all, apologies for the wait. Second, a sincere thank you to everybody who wrote in to tell me how much you enjoy SuRe, and how much you looked forward to seeing it return. Thirdly, a bit of a plug:
Over the break, I launched my official Patreon campaign. It was a year in the making, and I have to give many thanks to Cole at Patreon for holding my hand through the process. I had been burned a bit by my Kickstarter that launched this comic, so I was hesitant to re-enter the world of crowdfunding. I hope, with the help of Patreon, we can have a relationship that’s a lot less stressful for all involved. Check out my page, where you can support all my work, including SuRe, and in return, you’ll have access to my work-in-progress blog, goofy extra stuff, and even new books as they are published. Current backers already had an early peek at the sketches for this page. So if you’ve ever been curious at what goes into making each SuRe update, consider backing today!

I decided that once this pilot period was over, I’d take some time to reflect on what I learned about the comic, its characters, and its audience. That’s what I’m going to be talking about in this post…

In return for my slight, here’s my vegan banh mi recipe, which was a huge hit. Feel free to use pork instead of tofu if that’s your jam.
