Preface
Ending my lazy month with comic work, April I am releasing Issue 6 of Freedom Planet Resurgence, starting with the cover I just finished tonight. More on that and other stuff in this journal!
General News & Events
Current College Workload
The workload has increased for sure now. Multiple projects are coming out of the wood works for majority of my classes, and I'm going to have to set some time to complete all of them. Drawing will be put to a minimum, but if there is time, I'll spend it drawing if I'm not too tired from course work.
Spring Semester nearing it's End
April is often considered the near end of the semester month for spring semesters, at least for me. My last day of classes is May 19th, but it gets a bit complicated, as I'll explain in the next segment below this one. Unlike November where we have Thanksgiving break to help us get through the last few weeks, but April doesn't have that at all. Its a full on 4-5 week, 5 days of school, no breaks. I have Easter, but no monday off afterwards, might just skip class that day though. In either case, it'll be some time before I'm able to go home and work without worry of classes. But, that won't really last all that long, see next subject below.
Summer Class/Working for more Money
As the title says, yes, I am taking a summer course this year, my first one actually... Why? Because with it, I can literally get myself to graduation quicker, I estimate I can graduate at Fall 2018 if I work hard enough, take 5 courses per semester, and take this summer course. Otherwise, I'd be stuck there for another semester... Good news is this summer course isn't long, just time consuming. June will be used up entirely for the course, but I'll still have July and August. But, as these last two semester have shown me, money goes away quickly... and what I had in my bank account was gone within just these two semesters. I'd rather not eat any student loans yet, or at least reduce how much I will need to take in the future, so I'll need to work up some more money, meaning a summer job again.
This, and the summer course, will take a bit of time to handle, so work on comics might be strictly reduced to script working or sketching... If I even have time for that. If I don't, I'll likely find a way.
Comic News
Sonic the Hedgehog Z
Currently on a hiatus until FPR is completely done and Project Adventure has begun. Likely some other content related to Sonic Z might pop up once and while, MUP profiles likely to show up.
Freedom Planet Resurgence Comic Scripts
As I suspected, I would fail in trying to get this script out in March, too little time, too many issues. April is a fresh start, and with the comic cover done, I'll work on getting the scenes and going over the script a few more times to ensure quality, of course it will never be perfect. I hope to release the full issue by this Saturday, if not, the following week at some point.
Project Adventure
Project needs more time, likely a summer thing for sure now.
The Wrap Up
March was wasted time, Andromeda and my long break from drawing was fun, I feel more determined to keep at it. FPR will be finished this year.
Highlights
-Workload has increased, more projects = less time for art/scripts
-Spring semester nearing end, summer on the horizon
-Summer class and summer work during break will hinder comic production significantly later
-FPR Issue 6 cover released, full script will be released later this week or next week

An Effort to Speed Production
Greetings everyone! I'm glad to have been able to finish issue 16 after all these years, it also means the comic is now in a single digit for how many issues are left (9). However, going forward there will be changes. While I am happy that I am able to get 1 page out per weekend, it really will take a while to get anywhere with the comic within the time frame I'm hoping to complete the series in. Even with help from my friend I simply do not have enough time or patience to sit down and focus on getting page by page out. I get tired from work easily since now it is a manual labor kind of job. Among other things the work environment isn't the friendliest right now. Hoping that will change in the near future so it'd be a lot less stress on my part. If it does get better, it may lighten the mood and make me feel a bit more motivated to do things. If not, I'm gonna be looking at other jobs and hopefully one that won't exhaust me or my time too much. Either way, I will have some new
Official Schedule of Page and Art Releases
Introduction If I didn't make it clear with two new pages and a sparkling new comic series cover (that I absolutely adore right now, puts all the others to shame) I am back and I'm ready to finish Sonic and I's journey. 9 years ago I started this comic with the intent to improve my skills as an artist, storywriter, and just to make a digital comic to post online instead of making comics for myself to enjoy. Since March 1st 2013 I've grown up as a person in more ways than one. There were good times and bad times, I'm looking at 2020-2021 specifically... But those weren't great years for a lot of people so I won't drone on about it. Instead looking toward the brighter future and I hope I made it apparent with the latest release of the Sonic Z Comic series cover for 2022 and on. Featuring more characters than I have ever included on any cover + new sights to behold that haven't been shown in the comic series yet. Please consider this is as my apology for disappearing for 2 years
Sonic Z Continues + Other News
Hey everyone! As you guys have seen Sonic Z #16 Pg 18 is out as of today. Happy 9th Year anniversary of the comic! The first pages and the cover for issue 1 were released on March 1st 2013, and I can remember a time where I was really excited to get it started. I had the goal of telling this storyline and improving my skills to get as good as my peers. A lot has changed since those youthful days when I was still in my late teens. Now I'm in my late twenties and that person I saw in the past is not the same person I am now. But fragments of that same person gleam through, wanting to see the end of this comic. And I intend to deliver. But as I mentioned in previous journals many life altering events have changed my life obviously and my work here. I was knocked out of the game for 2 years... it was all that bad. I will not continue on about what happened in 2020 from here on, its the past, and I'm moving on from that. Those involved I have no intentions to speak to unless provoked to
The Hiatus Will Be Ending Soon
Introduction Season Greetings everyone new and old here! I won't beat around the bush too much here and address the title of this journal... Yes. The Hiatus for Sonic the Hedgehog Z is ending fairly soon. I know many of you have been patient, impatient, and worried that I was never going to get back to the comic. But there were many reasons why I entered a 2 year hiatus which I plan to get into briefly to those who are interested in hearing that. But for those who wished to just know when I'm returning here with new pages, the earliest will be sometime in January 2022 and at latest March 1 2022. Otherwise known as the day Sonic Z was first released for it's 9 year anniversary. 2020 Continued as 2021, What happened to Me 2020 was arguably the worst year I've ever had in my entire life. But many people can state that considering that the world was thrust into a 'pandemic' and people were thrown into a chaotic world. Not only that, but it was a major election year here in the US

Just a question about Sonic Z:
Since Sonic's friends will be training, what techniques will they learn? And more importantly, being a fan of them, will Cream and Cheese actually get to train, too? If so, what techniques would they learn?
