What’s this? Could it be? An update not months in the making? Yes! ’cause I plan on being awesome this year. (don’t hold me to that!)

Do to the Chutes and Ladders nature of the word balloons on this page I skipped on having a real background. Would’ve been too busy I thought.

I’m debating on whether or not to continue this particular “Attack on Shiloh” story or make it a stand alone vignette about Samuel and Bethani. I guess we’ll find out next update.

I’ve got some paying work before the next page but I’m going to try and update sooner rather than later. (don’t hold me to that!)

Not only am I the creator of The Saga of Samuel, the swankiest bible-based fantasy comic around, I am also an illustrator/graphic designer of little, to no, renown.

My Heroes of the Bible coloring pages are selling like hotcakes, if hotcakes were PDF files you print out and have your kids color. You can find those here: The Heroes of the Bible coloring pages

If you like The Saga of Samuel, perhaps you’d like to donate some of your loose PayPal change. The “Support the Saga” coin pouch, off to the right, will let you do that.

Don’t have change to spare? I hear ya. Instead, please use the “Share the Knowledge” buttons below, and now, above to share on various social media networks. The more people I got coming here the more I’ll feel the need to update (or at least feel extreme amounts of guilt for not updating…either-or).

Thanks for reading The Saga of Samuel!

It is with great sadness that we must now say goodbye to our friend the First Philistine. While we will come across many, many philistines throughout The Saga of Samuel, only one can be the “first”. His morally questionable life comes to an end at the hands of a mysterious masked man but, for us, we will always remember…

I got this page done faster than usual (it would’ve been posted earlier if not for a certain MMO with lightsbers and such) because of Reddit commenter “Sock Goblin” who said “Really liking this comic, just which he’d update more often”. So, apparently, I can be cajoled into updating faster with guilt-inducing commentary. Who knew?

Yes, I know I’ve committed a great sin among my digital art brethren and used the much-derided “Lens Flare” but I polled my people at The Saga of Samuel Facebook page (join today!) and Lens Flare won by a landslide.

I’m going to go back to naming the strips rather than using page numbers and I’ll probably go back and name the batch before this one. Just cause.

I’ve also included below the whole of what is Page 2. Click to embiggen and view it in all it’s glory!

…and that’s all for now.

It looks really good…let’s not mention the ridiculously stupid dwarf names.

The multiyear deal grants Lego access to the library of characters, settings and stories of “The Lord of the Rings,” “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” and “The Hobbit: There and Back Again,” all helmed by Peter Jackson.

The first toys Lego plans to produce will hit store shelves in June, tied to “Lord of the Rings,” with new construction sets planned for the weeks leading up to the Dec. 14 bow of “An Unexpected Journey.”

Seriously, I’ve been trying to not post so much LEGO stuff. I mean the site’s not “The Saga of Samuel plus LEGO!”, but this….OH MY!

Here’s the link:

Lego lands ‘Hobbit’ toy license – Entertainment News, Top News, Media – Variety.

While I still think a rock to the head probably wouldn’t be very bloody, it’s more visually interesting and it’s not like I can run field tests.

I wasn’t expecting Bethani to be quite so ruthless but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

I think the philistine’s face wins this strip. I thinking of making it into a shirt for myself and pointing at it when someone blows my mind.
