Will you be posting Crash 'n' Burn somewhere else once Tapas shuts down?
It would be a shame to lose access to the comic.

Where can I read cats & dogs?

Are you going to make a new comic anytime soon?

Hi where can I see all your uncensored comic Crash'n'Burn?

Hi, the uncensored versions are available in my webshops: https://mikiko.art (follow the link to shop or digital shop) :)

Hi. First I'd like to say I'm kind of both sad and happy that we reached the end of Crash 'n' Burn.
I had quite mixed feelings about it at first as I find the cliché of hate/lust relationships quite dubious, but in the end I find the evolution of their relation quite natural and I really love how the story does not focus solely on Kyle/Tyler's sexual relationship but rather on the way their relationship evolves as a whole and how they evolve themselves. Plus it tackles some issues we don't see much often (especially domestic violence). It's really hard to find such a comic, so thank you. :D

Now I have a few questions:

First, you mentioned you were willing to write sequels to CnB and to begin with, a 22 pages long short comic. As this is too short to make up a full-length book, I was wondering if you'd have any plans for a collection of such short stories in a single book.
Second, I figured that even self-published books could have an ISBN so I was wondering why CnB does not have any.

(P.S.: If you ever want to translate CnB in French, I can help both as a translator and as a proofreader—a volunteer one, that is.)

About your questions:
I will consider a collection of short stories if the demand is there and the material complete. Until then, I will likely print and sell short comic as they are completed. This is purely for shipping reasons (heavy books cost a lot to ship) and I need to earn money while drawing the next one.

Secondly: I don't have ISBNs, because it costs money, and I am self-published. I do everything myself, so I don’t know how to register this or what benefit it would have.

Thanks for offering to help with the french version, I usually have translated digital versions. ^^ Might hit you up when the time comes.

you mentioned a short comic coming in march,
but that you wont be releasing it on tapas because of nsfw content rules.
Will you be posting a reminder/advert when it becomes available in march?

Absolutely! I think a lot of people did not read the description, so I will always put alerts up here to remind everyone. :) I do want to keep working on it in general, just can't make any defined promises other than the NSFW comic.
