Before we get to this week’s Comic of the Week page, I have something important to share regarding Palestine. This week (Jan 21-28) there’s a global strike for Palestine! The official rules are: don’t go to work, don’t go to class, don’t participate in leisure activities, don’t buy anything that’s not essential, and visibly show support/spread awareness for Palestine. Realistically, most people aren’t going to be able to do all of that (I unfortunately cannot either), so I encourage y’all to do at least one or two of the things on the official strike list. Mine so far has been refraining from buying anything non-essential and spreading awareness/showing support. I will link some ways to support Gazans down below:

Esims for Gaza (Gaza is in a blackout right now and could use help connecting to the outside world)

Palestine Children’s Relief Fund

CareForGaza (organization delivering food on the ground in Gaza)

Thank you for listening. This week’s Comic of the Week is located below.

Week of January 22-28

 

Checkmate

 

Life can be a bit like a game of chess. Strategizing and positioning in the hope that you can get to your checkmate.

 

Magefront – Amarantha is a necromancer on a mission. She wants to become a famous battlemage just like her mother, and she knows just how to do it. She’s already been accepted to the College of Magic, summoned her first wraith, and bagged herself a Bonded knight. Now all that’s left is the hard part. Surviving a war.

Kings of Sorts – Follow Hana, an optimistic village outcast, whose knowledge of magitech puts him at the center of royal court conspiracies!
