🕑 Added 2017-11-20 02:17:15 +0000 UTC We're kicking off our new series, Transported! Strap in for sci-fi fun, laughs, and probably some comically bad things happening to Rico.The format will be as follows: Four "panels" worth of story accompanied by an illustration of the page's events. Typically, we'll have the story up top here with the illustration attached at normal resolution and the full size too.
The first few weeks of the story will be available for free for everybody and will stay free as a preview so you know what you're getting into and to help new people catch up. Once the preview is up, the story will be available for Patreon members. Since Transported is taking the place of Sins, it will update on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, while Mercynaries continues to update on Tuesday and Thursdays. Patreon members that pledge at the $1 level will get the month's story and illustrations but at the end of the month, the pages will be "archived" and only available to members at the $4 pledge level. That way, readers that continue to support the site even at just $1 will get access to everything but readers that want to dip in and out will need to support us at the slightly higher pledge level.
I hope you all like the story and are excited to see where Rico's story takes us! Thanks! Commence story!

Title: Transported
Media: Comic
Main Characters: Rico
Chapter 1: Intro
Page 1
The comic opens with a regular looking guy in his mid to late 20s walking past a park late at night. You see suburbia approaching on the side Rico is walking towards and a city on the side he's walking away from. The city is slightly futuristic to imply a near future but it's still mostly quiet with a few lights on and neon accents lit up to display that this is a small city that shuts down when the workers go home for the night.
Rico is walking down the park path fiddling with his phone. He looks completely disinterested or bored despite the near future fanciness of his phone, so the audience knows that the technology is normal for the time but he still has the "stare at your phone to pass time" mindset of an unfulfilled person with a boring job. Rico wears simple clothing (slacks, sneakers, regular shirt under a hoodie) so his job probably isn't too fancy but everything is nice and clean, so he's likely a middle class worker with an office job or low level business dealings. As he flicks at the phone, one star in the sky flashes a slight blue and is larger and brighter than the rest.
Rico is still staring at his phone, but he's now confused/annoyed squinting at the bright glare on the holographic screen (text and images has a slight sense of depth and exist above the screen). He's unaware that a bright blue light from the sky is aimed at him and this is what's causing the glare. The background behind him is washed out with the far background slightly more visible so we know the beam is aimed specifically at him.
Rico is being ungracefully sucked into the air, rotating slightly so his legs are coming up and causing him to spin splayed out. Everything loose, like his hair, shoelaces, or hood, is pointing upwards or flapping around like he's caught in a vacuum. Despite this, his phone is seen dropping down to the ground and nothing loose on the ground is being sucked up either. Rico is looking around in bewilderment but nobody else is around him.
