“All Come Together” – Cover
It’s become abundantly clear to me that I need more “bridging” in the story before I launch the “Final” chapter of “Season 1” of “Ship in a Bottle”. And big changes are on the way! First, I’d like to welcome our new penciler, Krius-ol! I found him through Midnight’s “Danger Zone One” comic (Danger Zone One Webcomic) as I have a couple others, and I’m feeling pretty good about where this is going to go. I did inks and colors (with some minor corrections), and I’ll be sharing the Clara piece without all the distractions from the background on Patreon. But I felt it fitting (given the nature of the story I have planned) to include a little bit of art from all of the artists who made this version of “Ship in a Bottle” work as well as foreshadow some things that may not yet be obvious to all. but they shall be revealed in good time.
I also realize it’s been a good long while since this updated. I cannot emphasize this strongly enough: without support on Patreon, our comics are dead in the water. I’m working on what I can when I am able, but it’s not a lot. If we can get it to $1000/month, I may be able to certify updates and take some time to work up some bonuses and other materials to make it worthwhile. Obviously, we don’t want to stop there, but it’s a “goal”. and I do not expect any one person to carry the load. That defeats the nature of patronage on Patreon, which is meant to be about community. so, spread the word: the finest chapters of this series and Peppermint Saga have yet to be written, and we need your help to get there. But, I also want to thank our existing Patrons. Without you, we wouldn’t have gotten here at all.
Special thanks to UncolaMan for saving the day and helping me acquire my new XP-Pen Tablet Monitor. I’m hoping to be able to make more pieces like this in the future.

hello? are you alright mace?
Not really. Having a lot of financial difficulties that are making time to do anything extra impossible right now.
Update:
For the time being, I am doing a daily blog post Monday through Friday with accompanying AI art of Ship, and if I can somehow get the generator at PixAI to make the other characters, I will. My policy on “AI Art” is defined in my blog post. The stories and information I share will be human generated, though. Just an extra feature until I can get some things in order
Does anyone know when we will see a new page?
Too many of my favorite webcomics have stopped updating weekly and it has me missing so much right now. It’s driving me crazy.

is this comic dead???
i know what i’m doing next month
Y-you uhm seem to like to make it clear who pays you on this site almost with a bit of bite to the statement is there some sort of distain you have with people you advertised in the past or something?
???
The truth is, most revenue streams have dried up because the industry punishes sex workers and porn producers. So if there’s any “edge”, that’s where it comes from. Ads take about 2 years or so to make a $25 payout, and people stopped buying digital comics rather abruptly last year. A lot of people hit hard times and had to leave the Patreon.
so is this comic dead or what???

hey man, how are you?
hey Mace, I’ve been meaning to ask: do Ship and Claire have any hypnotic breaths? asking incase they want to seduce and hypnotize Alan via wish.
That would be a violation of the Genie Code. Even Shaytan doesn’t actually “hypnotize” Trixie. It would be more accurate to say that, in that scene, she “unlocked Trixie’s potential” by giving her the Wisdom of Solomon. (which is what she inadvertently wished for when she “wished to know what to wish for”.) Wishes cannot harm the user in this universe lest the genie be banished to the Oblivion Abyss in chains. Which is basically death for an immortal. (note: Shaytan “escaped”, hence why she has the huge chain link around her neck and the chains on her bracers.) This is an in-universe “quality of life” consideration on my part because *everyone* who does Genie fiction typically allows the genies to fuck up the wishes with trickery by their very nature as Djinn.
nuts. a simple “no.” would’ve been fine, but i see your point.
Finally here!
I’m happy you’re still around. I’ll gib some moneys.

Ah, of course I suppose you can’t afford to pay the artist anymore. Real tragic how things have gone. I think it might turn around, I heard some credit card company won some thing so they can be used for “adult” materials now.
I’m hoping to get back to it, but I haven’t decided yet. Having trouble doing art and working my regular job at the same time.
I want to lick claire’s abs.
Oh man, don’t we all. *sweats*
Once I’m stable again, expect me to toss in more support once more. Glad to see Ship is back.
Sounds good! Thanks!
Well, keep an eye on this space. We’re not starting immediately, but it *is* happening.
I’m glad to see something interesting on this site. also, I hope you’ll get enough dough to pull this off. p.s., I wonder if this comic tells more of Claire’s backstory.
I appreciate the new art…got depressing looking at the same page day after day..
