The Deadlys™ celebrate their 15th anniversary this year. For a while now I’ve had numerous people ask me if I’d ever repost the original series again. Before, I wasn’t sure, but given the special occasion and some deep reflection over the past few years, I’ve decided to post it again. I’ve included the more expanded explanation below.

(Originally posted in The Deadlys™ Nooseletter)

There are periods in everyone’s life where they experience a massive shift in their being. The world looks almost completely different than it did just five years ago. While I won’t go into details, I’ve lost a few very close souls, one of which was a huge supporter of my comics work.

As I pick up the pieces and try to find my new groove without these people, I find myself returning to things that came from a time when I was more sure of my place in the world. One of them is The Deadlys.

You’re probably a little confused as to why you’re getting this email. As it turns out, I had to reactivate my Deadlys site to get some info I needed. As I booted it up, I felt like I needed to leave it running after I was done. I’ve had a lot of people ask if I would ever put the comic back online so…here you go.

I won’t make grand promises of future content at this point because, well, I’m terrible at sticking with things. I’m trying to improve though so if I feel like I can honestly commit to something new, I’ll look at making new Deadlys content for all of you. I think it would help me to revisit something positive…maybe make a special someone proud of me once again.

I guess I just wanted to reach out and say thank you to you, my most diehard fans, for your patience and support through the years. I hope you enjoy going back and reading the original series.

Take care and (hopefully) more soon.
