Forgiveness! Yes, this is an unhealthy relationship. No, I do not condone physical/ emotional abuse of any sort. Thankfully this is a comic with fictional characters and it is not real life.
Next week’s comic maaaay be up a bit late, it depends. I will have to see how much ass I can kick this week. A family death and a big deadline on top of all my other stuff is stressing me out like no other, so sorry in advance for any schedule slips on my end.
Pimp of the week goes to these delightful journal comics by a REAL biologist (aka she is a PhD and can write papers in her sleep). Not only does she do awesome research but she is super nice and draws excellent comics that you might like to take a look at. Yay!
They might have an unhealthy marriage but when I see this page I feel that Luca has maybe for the first time in all his life realized that he has a problem and has admitted it openly to Phe. That in my view is the first step to healing and change. I don’t think he wants to hurt his wife in the way he did I think he really loves her, he just needs something that will help him focus his anger and channel it rather than letting it explode outwards and hurt those he loves.
I can understand if he never forgives those who hurt him despite that there long gone. I just hope that one day he will forgive there children and there children’s, children’s who mean him no wrong.
Their marriage may have some arguments, but the important thing is that they they love each other.
Great art (as usual).
PS Really sorry for your loss and don’t worry about updates so much.
He’s so still my favorite character!
Kinda reminds me of my Dad… except my Dad is kind of more (a lot) Girly but still with a bad attitude.
I wish that you would make a new tutorial on how you set up and color your comic pages!
Luka really should go see a therapist, taking some anger management.
I do however do not know how to perceive Luka. He could be a bad guy, seeing his history. Phe holds him on the leash as best as she can.
Hmmm.
And reading the meekipedia, he really is a typical emperor.
Sofar, Phe’s the only one that makes him more human.
aw, Phe <3
The man would fall to shambles without you.
So sorry about your loss. Hope you don’t stress too much!
Lovely page like usual. Love the movement in the last panels!
Emperor? Listen to your wife. She really knows what she is talking about.
After my third time of reading this, a question has popped into my mind: how many times have they gone through this? It’s obvious that they have an extremely rocky relationship, but it seems that she didn’t have any real intention of leaving. After all, she was waiting for him with only a blanket on, with no packed bags in sight.
