I drew this graphic novel using Photoshop. The filtered images are in-game screenshots of actors and locations and the stories are ongoing plots that anyone in the Union Universe (the RP world) could join. Thanks Rapthorn, Damsel. Glad you enjoyed the story.

Excellent work again Pious. Great story, love the texturing. The new speech bubbles work well too. More please.

Its very well done.

He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

Great work! Me wants to see more.

Gotta say, I think the texturing is too heavy. It's actually rather hard to see what's going on, or who's who.

(I'm a fan of clean artwork, sorry.)

Disclaimer: The above may be humerous, or at least may be an attempt at humour. Try reading it that way.

Obviously this isn't clean art. The heavy texturing purposely renders the images into a shaded, painted style.

Thanks everyone, glad you enjoyed it.

Nice going Pious!, can't wait to read Pt4:Art of War.

Oooh, that's some good stuff there.

Bit confusing about Pious though, is he depowered, is he not depowered? The doctor said one thing, what Pious did really shows another.

A chunk of text got lost in editing, fixed now. Thanks for the comments guys, glad you enjoyed the read.

"In comparison to the last time I analysed your DNA, I’ve discovered over forty new alien chromosomes which I deduce are from abilities you’ve absorbed over the years. That’s forty separate DNA types, and those are just ones I recognize. You know most heroes have to make do with the one ability, coupled with a skill or two."

Was that Leandrea in black, standing in the GG shot?

I am eager to finish and release this next issue for your viewing pleasures but life has been positively yet frantically busy this past couple weeks, with work and moving houses. I hope to have #4 published by the end of the month. Thanks all readers.

Good news people. I've finished issue 4 of the PRIEST stories, where Pious is asked to join the Art of War as a specialist, against Arachnos's new agent Pistol and engage in deadly warfare! Comments please. Enjoy! LINK!

Very impressive Pious. The action shots are all excellent, they look fantastic.

I shudder to think how long this took you! (my Warshade didn't make it in though. Damn my altitis!).
