I love me some Maven in Panel 6. What was the first rule about therapy with her again?

****THIS IS A BONUS PAGE!****

I’m posting up an extra page this week because of your super-generous donations! Woo hoo! Special thanks to Meghan P. and long-time supporters Laura Beth W. and Judith W. (hugs!) for their generous donations over the past few days. A hug and a high-five to Micheal B. for continuing their streak of donating every week (up now to four weeks in a row! Wow!). And a deep, grateful, heartfelt bow to Jennifer B. whose $26 donation put us over the top to make this bonus page possible. I am very humbled and warmed by your support. Let’s please thank the donators in the comments—they are rock stars!

And… we have some new Fan Art! This time it’s Deacon and Jeff sharing an intimate glance in “Artifice: The Look” by Lance. Thank you so much, Lance!

So, that’s the news! Hope to see you all again this Saturday, when our regularly scheduled page goes up—page 36!

Yeah, Deacon, why?

So! New Fan Art this week. This time a full-color head-shot of Jeff by Suf. Thanks, Suf!

The awesome translators continue to submit awesome translations. I believe we’re all caught up on Dutch while French-Canadian and German aren’t far behind. I’d like to welcome Matt who has started translating the pages into Italian this week as well as Zed123 who has joined Eleinor in creating Hungarian translations.

I’ve been working closely with the translators to try to keep things as clear, accurate and true to the story/characters as possible. If English isn’t your native language, please take a moment to check out the translations, starting with Page One. You might discover some subtle meanings that will help you understand what’s really going on in Deacon’s head. (You can find the drop-down menu for the translations right above this note from me. It says “Available Transcripts”.)

Finally, special thanks to Jaclyn T., Hikaru K., Jonathan D. (a longtime friend of Artifice! Howdy!) and Daniel M. for their generous donations this week. And big bear hugs to longtime supporter Larisa V. for her $25 donation and to Micheal B. who has now donated three weeks in a row! I am so grateful to you all. 🙂

(And good golly, we’re now just $26 away from a bonus page, so keep an eye out—it could happen this week!) DING! DING! DING! DING! DING! Thanks to your super generous donations, we hit $250 this morning (Sunday) and so there will be a bonus page—Page 35!—posted up this Wednesday, September 28th! See you there! 😀

Hmmm… I wonder what Jeff is going to have for lunch…

I’ve posted up some more fan art, this time by Toilet Genie webcomic creator Cari Corene. Thank you, Cari!

And woo hoo! We’re now almost 2/3rds of the way to the next bonus page! Special thanks to D Christian H., Micheal B. (for the 2nd week in a row! High five!), Monica T., Bruce D. and Deanna S. for their generous donations this week and a big hug to Jacob P. for their $25 donation! I have the coolest readers ever…

How could anyone stay angry with Deacon’s Panel 3 face?

So, big things this week!

First of all, I put out a request for translators last Saturday and got a resounding response. Artifice is now being translated into Dutch, French Canadian, French European, German, Hungarian,—sadly, no Klingon yet—Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish! Please give a warm thank you to translators Mia, Mud, Jin, ckazka, María Lux, Sofia, Essephant, Pheebs, Eleinor and Ariane for their generous work towards making this comic available to everyone.

I’ve added some code that places a drop-down menu just under the comic page which makes cycling through the translations a breeze. Try it out on Page One! (A big thank you to Big Bagel over at Interrupted Reality for coming up with this beautiful code! If you’re thinking about setting up your own webcomic, you’d be in very good hands over at his site.)

I’ve also just added a Fan Art page! It’s a real treat for Winona and I to see other artists’s takes on our characters. Please show your support for your fellow readers by checking that page out!

And finally, I am tremendously humbled by your super generous donations this time around. In less than a week, we’ve gone from $2 to $108! That’s over a third a way to the next bonus page! Special thanks to Annette A., Robert B., Micheal B., Lorenzo L., Laura Beth W. and Daniela F. for their generous donations this week. I’d also like to give a special call out and hug to Alexander S. for their $25 donation and a fist-pumping cheer (yes, I actually did this), humble bow and bear hug to Amy D. for their $50 donation! An Artifice world record! Thank you all so, so much!

Gosh. Things are getting a little heated. What do you think is going to happen next?

Oh! And thanks to the awesome translation contributions of Artifice reader Sophia, I’ve started to add transcripts of this comic in both English and Spanish. You can find them by clicking on the word Transcripts right above the donation box. This is an experiment so please let me know what you think. (For example, is that the best place for them or would they be better right below the comic page itself?)

And if you’re fluent in both English and another language and would like to offer translations as well, please Email Me.

Finally, I’d like to send out a big hug to repeat supporter Elyse B. for getting us started on the next bonus page with her generous donation this week!
