holy shit its already 2026… this thing had been going on for at least a full year by now!! hell yea-
thats a lie of course, as JSRX has been a thing since 2021, but THIS iteration of the comic is only about a year old. which is still crazy to think about, it feels like it was only yesterday that this site was up and running lol.
im still sometimes taken aback that jsrx is the way it is right now in comparison to how it was when i first started. i mean i shouldn’t be, as of today it will be 5 years ago technically…
i dont know, i dont mean to be a downer or nothin lol, i know i can be melodramatic in that regard. thats the type of stuff i should save for audio updates loll.
the first audio update went well(ish) tho! theres some weird clicking in spots where i clipped the audio down, but im pretty sure its a result of compression smh. ive already got another one recorded and ready to edit, but it is kinda rambly so i might reconsider using it.
sorry for the lack of updates, now that things have calmed down i can probably be more transparent about whats been going on recently:
a family member of mine developed glioblastoma, which the doctors gave him a 10-15 month estimate of life expectancy for. its been really hard on everyone in my family, especially with everyone rotating thru taking care of him and all that. he also lives on the other side of the country from most of us, so its been a lot of traveling back and forth.
its not really an excuse, tbf im not one of the people expected to care for him a majority of the time, but its just put quite a bit of strain on my work as of recent.
not to mention another whole weird situation i found myself in semi-recently, but thats all over and done with so its not a big deal loll.
kinda unrelated, but ive been frustrated for awhile with my regression when it comes to traditional art. ive just noticed for quite some time that it has slowly gotten more and more messy, which doesnt look right. its not a big deal atm, but it just annoys me idk.

Hi!!!;! Er. Yeah. Hi!
It’s pretty good to know you’ve been working on this comic for 5 years! And i get the feeling too, because in 10 more days me and my friend will achieve 2 years of friendship… It’s really weird, time does fly past quickly doesn’t it!
I’m still so sorry about your unc (righ?), but you see it must be already really painful for him to keep living like this, so just think of his death as him finally getting to rest. Either it is really tough to deal with physically or mentally. Hope he parts safely and peacefully!
And don’t worry… Take all the time you want, seriously, nobody’s rushing you:)
(i also get the traditional art thingie. for me, i think it’s just because i have a lot of ideas in my mind and i draw very quickly and i struggle to concentrate perfectly… but i dont really mind, as long as i’m having fun…your situation Is different though of course….hope u find a way to deal w/ that too… and whoever’s bothering you :b)
peace!!
Oh hi there! Before anything i just wanna say happy new year (even tho is kinda late but whatever). I am kinda suprise and not that you guys still remember this site, i really thought that this project is gonna end with a generic radio silence and nothing more (i hope it wont). And also, don’t worry about drawing on paper, for me it kinda made its own art style seperate to what i do digitally
