Caustic Issue #5

ISSUE 5!

Words from the Authors: Yasin E:

Welcome back our loyal, regular readers! i hope you’ve enjoyed everything that’s led up to this issue, i sure did! but in all honesty i don’t really think this is having as big of an impact as i hoped or wanted to. and i get it’s very early on and this still more to do but we’ve been doing a lot already and i don’t know... maybe i was expecting too much from this. i’m not saying i’m here to give up, as much as i want to, i’ll keep pushing, and maybe one day this’ll be where and want it and more. until then keep reading and stick arounD! this issue is the one you’ve all been waiting for, who is caustic? where is he from? and why can he do what he does? well i will tell you this isn’t his whole story so make sure you stick around long term and maybe you’ll just find out. but until we get there lets focus on what we got now!

Caustic: Issue #5: The Origin!

Spencer J:

Hey guys! We’re glad to see that y’all have enjoyed what we’ve done with Caustic so far! We think the next issue is an addition to the lore that you’re gonna really appreciate. It’s been hard making an issue a week for a month, but it was worth. It’s gonna be the last issue for a while because we have to lock in on school and stuff, but we’re incredibly happy with the work we’ve done so far and support we received. Don’t worry, there will still be new issues!

hey, Shoo! shoo!

c’mon, go get away Get...

Go scare it away coming, dad!

Maria! The damn deer is eating in the garden again...

h-h-hello? anyone there?

Actually... give me a sec

yes, dad! i know! i’ll do the laundry right...

is... uh... anyone in there?

Listen, whatever you are, i just came to say thanks for giving my comic back... you did that... right?

Hello!

Stupid it was probably just a wolf yesterday and the wind blew the comic into the yard and dad picked it up. This was dumb

THE HELL!!!

oh... you just wanted the PB Sandwich. Yeah you can have that...

so you were real, whatever you are... and you’re nice too giving my comic back

oh... you want more?

1 month later

it’s me! thats about $25 of bread, and all of my peanut butter, you better eat all of it

ok listen, i’ll come back tomorrow with some more. is that good?

you know, you’re cute but i can never tell what you’re thinking it’d help if you had a face

um... okay?

2 month later

no no no, it’s like this...

you’d make this face when you see something scary

like bugs or social interactions

okay, you can stay in here for the winter so you don’t freeze

surprise looks like this

yeah like that!

and for the last time toes go on the feet, and fingers on the hands!

2 month later

Remember, never go upstairs. Nobody ever goes down here so they won’t find you

but up there if you get found out, it wouldn’t be pretty.

also another thing...

I figured you’d be bored waiting around in my basement all day... so if you want you could read this.

It’s called a comic. This one’s called Alchemist #1. It’s an ongoing run based off a real hero. The art’s really great and there’s not a lot of dialogue, so I thought you’d enjoy it.

if you like it, i’ll get you the next issue... anyway, gotta go! i’ll see you after school!

i told you to stop doing that. it stopped being cool the 100th time you did it
