PROLEGOMENON

More of Sofia's zine. It reads: Step 2.5. There's a bullet list under it, that says: 1. Read about nukes. 2. Get above the machine. 3. Find good field for practice. 4. Distract Yua.

Kept you waiting, didn't I? ...Jokes aside, as this webcomic was on hiatus in protest of the genocide in Gaza, and I'm coming back to it as that's still ongoing at the time of writing, I'd like to instead utilize this space to boost the donations campaigns of families and people who need help to survive. I'll be linking a new campaign I've gotten from this website every update, and I encourage you to go donate whatever you can afford to and help out. This update, we'll be focusing on Ramzi and his family get out of Gaza. Right now, they've only got about five thousand dollars, and their goal is much, much higher than that. I hope we can work to boost him a little closer to that goal - please help out!

Aside from that, a few administrative things to add: One, the characters page has seen a much needed refresh, so go take a peek. I'll chip away at the ones I haven't upgraded yet... when I can... Two, the update schedule for this webcomic has changed, so please keep that in mind. We'll see ten pages every two weeks on Saturday, starting today, of course. Third, the 12th is the five year anniversary of when I started working on this webcomic! Crazy! Anyway. That's all from me. It's good to be back, baby. -Beckett

Wow, it's been a while. I meant to do a big banger of an update on this one, but that didn't quite shake out right. Oh, well - here's an update anyways. In the downtime, I've also changed a few things around on the website. There's a FAQ now, if you want to review it, and I've moved the content warnings to its own page rather than combined with the About. I've added comment functionality to the site too, so feel free to throw comments on the page now - Mia's asking for them anyways. -Beckett

Meant to do a 20-page update last time, but didn't have the ability to wrap up 10 more pages - sorry about that! Here's a 20 page update to compensate. Thanks for your patience and all your love and support! We're almost at 250k views, which is really exciting. I'll be changing around the characters page soon, though not yet. Speaking of characters, I made an updated version of that PROLEGOMENON quiz, so if you've ever wondered which character you're most like, feel free to take it right here. Thanks again! -Beckett

PROLEGOMENON won that aformentioned OC-verse bracket! Thanks everyone, for all your support and love. It means a lot to me! In other news, PROLEGOMENON has joined WEB/COMIC/RING, a group of indie webcomics that are actively being worked on/updated. You'll notice a widget for it on the 'main' pages of the website, though if you're interested in seeing the whole shebang, you can find that over here. Be sure to go show some appreciation to the other webcomics involved too - they're crazy good, and if you like PROLEGOMENON, I think you'll enjoy these too. I hang out in the official Discord server for it too, so if you want to find me, you can find me there. -Beckett

In other news, there's been an OC-verse bracket going on over on Tumblr, and PROLEGOMENON is in the running! Very exciting stuff.

Slight warning for some blood in a few panels in this update and the next couple updates, potentially? Additionally I'm putting a big bold warning on mentions of suicide and death coming up. Sorry for any spoilers that can be drawn from that but... y'know, better safe than unspoiled! -Beckett

I skipped the last update, so I've got double the pages this time to make up for it. Please forgive me...! It's already in the content warnings on the about page, but I am going to highlight it again: proceed with caution as the topic of suicide will be coming up soon in the comic. Stay safe! -Beckett
