It's customary during the final days of a year to do resolutions for the next one or overviews of what happened in the one that's ending.

When comics enter development hell
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Dec. 3, 2022
When working on comics, particularly long term, you may encounter a situation where your comic is in…development hell!

The Right Jazz
