I'm having trouble getting a PDF of DR's original pages to look right, so in the meantime I hope this .ZIP will work!

Broadsword 001

Original Story, Characters, and Dialogue by Drowemos

What is Broadsword?

I've loved EXIERN for a long time. Not as long as many, as I missed the original pages that posted before Drowemos restarted things. But ever since reading those early pages of Ol' Mac's narration I've been hooked. I loved how things jumped right into the action, and Typhan-Knee's predicament.

EXIERN TEST by Antipus

I hope all the NEESE readers will forgive me this delay in posting Shipeng's final NEESE page. It will post next month, and I believe I have secured a new artist for NEESE. I'm excited about that and will provide more detail when I comfortable sharing.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this exclusive sneak peak at the style and talents of EXIERN's next artist, Antipus.

The page above is a stand-alone one-off test I asked Antipus to do so we could see how well we work together. He...

Exiern.com issues

I am aware Exiern.com is experiencing issues. I do not know why and am looking into it.

Peonie's Escape Sequence

Please find attached a .ZIP file containing the pages from Peonie's Escape. These are the original pages, before multiple layers of censorship needed to be added. You must be 18+ to download and view.

Long Time Artist Shipeng Lee has moved on from Exiern

Hello all,

I learned today that long time Exiern artist Shipeng Lee has found a new job and is leaving Exiern. My best wishes to him and his future.

He has left the comic before finishing the last batch of pages I sent to him. I am already speaking with some other artists about completing his arc. This does not impact the other Exiern plans.

I have removed the "Give Our Artist A Raise" goal from the Patreon list to reflect his departure, and I wanted to make sure everyo...

How To Destroy Exiern in 20 Pages

Or, How I Learned That Changing My Writing Habits Is Hard

This isn't a long post or anything with a lot of deep insight. But I wanted to start sharing more with the Patreon supporters, and a flooded basement took the time I had scheduled to post DR and Neese so I wanted to get something up (those will come this week).

Someday in the future there may be a thorough look back on Exiern and what it took to get it created and ongoing. Drowemos' early work and the transition to the ong...

The Execution of EXECUTION

I am immensely proud of Exiern.

That said, I know it isn’t perfect. I read all the comments and I know readers have pointed out some of its shortcomings. They’ve also missed some that I’m very conscious of. I suppose that this is the point where I could try and excuse them for reasons, but I’d much rather learn from them.

For as long as I have been writing Exiern, the process has changed very little. Each month I write a...

Monthly Updates Are Coming!

Just wanted to let everyone know that the monthly updates should be uploaded this weekend. There's been a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes - which I'll be sharing about soon - that has kept me very busy! My apologies for the delay!
