YAAAY! Page 31 came out and I love it :3 I did not like Sunflower at first, but the more I get to know her, the more I change my mind, and this chapter is really showing what she's really like! I love how the girls are awesome Thank you, Rogo, it's nice to see girls doing something cool without having to wear sexy armor to do so! Specially on a comic with lots of action made by a boy. Although I would enjoy fanservice, I admit that the way your comic doesn't need it to be awesome is part of the magic. (but that doesn't mean you can't make, say, fan-servicing wallpapers u.u)

Thanks, I try to write my female characters as characters first and women second. I also try and avoid having them be utterly useless.

Thank you, Rogo, it's nice to see girls doing something cool without having to wear sexy armor to do so! Specially on a comic with lots of action made by a boy. I agree, it's really refreshing to see some kick-ass females without them also being sex objects. It's one of the many things about Gravston that makes it a pleasure to read

Yush! I agree with you both! And even the one random fan service woman(mystery big-breasted woman) appears to have more than just fan service going for her. :D I don't mind fan service characters as much as most, but it's nice when good comic authors combine fan service and purpose into on character, which have done! So good job to you! :D

I'm glad.
Writing girls is always a minefield for writers so good to hear so far so good on that front XD

Not sure if this would be considered off topic, while we're on the subject of writing characters based on gender, has anybody else besides me run into the following on SJ/DeviantART?
-Male writer who cannot write for female characters, so chooses to make all girls "go extinct" in the story OR
-Male writer who for some reason has a cast of characters who are all female, and written for the purpose of fanservice
-BL comics written by females that have completely eliminated the females in society
-Male/female writers that have written a story with mostly girls/guys, but have the opposite gender as useless minor characters
Of course, Rogo does not fall into any of these categories. But I'm just wondering if I am the only ones who runs into these comics?

I created a board that's suited to these topics, please take the discussion there :D

I like the pace of this chapter. Even though there is a lot of action in the chapter, I don't feel completely lost or confused in it. I know who got hit and how they got hit which- believe it or not, is very important! XD That way I'm not sitting there staring at the page thinking, "Rogo...were you drunk while drawing these pages?" Which I ask that a lot in some professional mangas~ XD
So good job to you! ^-^ Keep up the awesome work~ ;D

I really liked the chapter a lot~ Though I felt some of the battles were incomplete. That may just be me... Anyways! I wonder who's all going to be introduced in chapter 8. I mean, if you have werewolves, vampires can't be far from the tree. Tee hee~ ;D

Hmm... how did you think the battles were incomplete? I'm curious to know because any feedback can make me strengthen future chapters.
As for that... ah I'm not saying.
Though if you vote on TopWebcomics and look at the incentive... eagle eyed readers may already see what's coming...
