In celebration of the 1-year anniversary of the series that got me back into writing (and kicked off a year of lore stories), I will be posting blogs that are almost like trade paperbacks or hardcovers for comics - they include revised versions of the chapters/issues and some bonus material. In this case, the bonus material is notes on each chapter and occasionally artwork. (There's also the usual list of characters)
Covers
The covers for volumes 1 and 4 were different iterations of a pixel art cover my friend OrderOutOfChaos (Peter) was working on, but he was banned from the site before he could finish, got burnt out, stopped working on it, and his work was eventually auto-deleted by Pixilart. The images I have were dug up from old guest book posts and used with permission. For their addition to the blogs, I did use Canva to make some minor changes involving text on the images, but the art is otherwise unchanged. The volume 4 artwork will be a modified version of this blog's main image (made by him). The covers for volumes 2 and 3 were illustrated by me on Magma.
Backstory
I initially started this project while PMC: War on the Nether was still being published, but I kept going over the character limit for blogs and assumed it was a glitch, which led me to quit. I restarted many months later, and when I encountered the same "glitch," I made a ticket and learned that it was actually me hitting the character limit. Thus, the collection blog was split into 4, hence this blog's existence.
