Hey friends! I took a really long break! For that, I apologize! I thought that I would be able to get a lot more done during vacation, but instead, I decided to have a vacation haha!
I drew 150 pages of comics in the year 2012. Or more, if I missed some. Which means I'm drawing 1 page of comics every 2 and a half days. Only half (76 or so) of those pages were for Bello Fortis. The ratio is only going to get more skewed in the coming year. I have other major projects that I'm working on, which you all will learn more about as they come into fruition, and school assignments are just getting bigger. What I'm saying, is that Bello Fortis will be taking the backseat. I'm now considering it a side project. It still has about 100 pages left to go before it's finished, and the update after next, you'll see that the pages will look a little different. I've started drawing the book at a much smaller size to help me get the pages done quicker. I'm also going to stop updating according to a schedule. I'll try to get two pages a week still, but sometimes that won't happen. But if you've stuck with me these last few months of no updating, then I hope you'll stick around for a rockier schedule in the future.
I have to say, it's the feedback that you all provide me that keeps me working on Bello Fortis, so I'd like to say thank you to everyone for supporting this project, and I hope you continue to enjoy the comic in the following months!

As some of you may know, I'm a first year student at the Center for Cartoon Studies. Fortunately for me, that means I have been learning a lot, and making a ton of comics! Unfortunately, that means that I've had less time to work on Bello Fortis. Right now, in order to stay on top of my homework, I have to produce more than one page every day, and for this current assignment, I've (for some ungodly reason) chosen to be a bit more realistic and detailed in my drawings. So it's taking a lot more out of me to keep up with it all.
I've only got a few weeks left in this semester, and I'm looking forward to picking back up with Bello Fortis once winter break starts. This will be a good break for me, so that I'll be pumped up to get back into working on it again (because I'm super excited to finally get to draw my favorite scenes)!!
If you peeps are having trouble facing the internet without some fresh Josh Lees wonderment, then buck up champ! I've got just the trick for you! You can head over to my tumblr and get (somewhat) regular updates of sketches and other comics I've been working on!
So, as always, I'm eternally grateful for all of your support, and I hope you'll all be back in a few weeks when we pick back up with the series!!

I've been working on a lino-cut mini-comic. I'll let you guys know when it's done, and you'll be able to check it out on my tumblr or something. It's called "Punk Rockers on Mars Discover an Ancient Stone Artifact." You'll never guess what it's about.

Wowzers Bowzers! I've finally made it to page 100!! I would like to thank you guys for sticking with it for this long! We're about halfway thru the story, so I hope you stick around for the next 100 pages to come!!
Here's a little sneak peek at what's going to come in the second half of the story: Assassins, alcohol, a few more quotes from famous stutterers, a bit more fighting, and maybe Demos will stop getting picked on... But probably not!
