The <img> tags are commented out below rather than deleted, so the post reads cleanly today and the original URLs survive as the record of which images go where. TO FIX: the files must come from Gabriel, or from Patreon post 147006341 while he is signed in. Commit them under static/images/ and swap each comment back for an <img>.

It is the first time I have made one of these, but I thought it would be the best type of ritual to properly say goodbye to the mess that was 2025, and say welcome to the mess that 2026 will inevitably become. Time passes by us a lot faster than any of us would wish, and it seems to speed up the older we get. Therefore, to give the year the sendoff it deserves, let&rsquo;s look at what I managed to accomplish this year. <br><br> For those unaware, I am not only a videogame programmer - I am also a comic artist and an author. June 23, 2024 I released the first chapter of my comic <a href="https://globalcomix.com/c/remy">Remy</a>, after working on it for almost a year. Since then, my pace has sped up significantly. I released chapter 6 on February 24th, and as of writing this I am working on chapter 9. It now takes me about 1 and a half months to finish a chapter, if nothing else gets in the way (which it often does). The comic has entered its first real arc, the Theta-32 arc, where Tyler Ventura is being held hostage by the mercenaries Champagne, Butch and Prince. Instead of sitting around and waiting for Remy to rescue him, Tyler is trying to figure out a way to get himself out of there. <br><br></p>
