Thanks Ms. Abs. I appreciate your feedback. The website for the comics is http://www.brothermancomics.com

I am planning to revamp that site and also post a new site with other works. I am working on an all new graphic novel but right now the original issues have been compiled into a trade paperback collection available on the site.

Have a great weekend!
