Follower just ended Chapter Seven, which you can read in full for free on our website at http://follower.messenger-comic.com! Between now and the beginning of Chapter Eight, we've got a few special offers and new things available for our readers and supporters to check out! Both of these projects will help support the comic and keep it going, which has been especially difficult in the past year. 

Ask a Chio Anything!

Before we begin the new chapter, we wanted to try something different… To fill in the gap between chapters, we’re offering a limited round of Ask a Chio Q&A spots! Whether you’re supporting us via Patreon, Ko-Fi, or Gumroad, all Chio Club members who are pledging $5 or more as of January 23 will be eligible to Ask a Chio anything, and get a guaranteed answer! This offer ends on February 5!

What’s Ask a Chio? It used to be an ask blog I ran on Tumblr for a couple of years, before it became challenging to balance with regular comic work. But I think it would be fun to try and bring it back on a limited basis. I’ve slowly been adding Ask a Chio answers to Radiochio.com for fun, and it would be great to have some new answers to add to the classic ones. 

What can you ask a Chio? Nearly anything, so long as it’s SFW. Just bear in mind that Chios’ knowledge of the world is limited to certain areas, so you might get interesting answers… You can direct a question to a particular Chio, or you can just ask a general question and see who shows up to answer it. 

Again, thank you for continuing to read and support our comic! Hopefully we’ll see what kinds of things the Chios get asked!

Become a Vloxen Geneticist

Join the ranks of the Cottontail Base Vloxen Geneticists and create your own Chio to cameo in the new chapter!

Commissions for custom Chio characters are now open on our Ko-Fi page and as a new tier on our Patreon! You’ll be able to customize your character’s name, fur, hair, and eye color, hairstyle, and personality, and I’ll work with you to come up with a character that’ll fit into the world of the comic. A short version of your character’s bio will be added to the cast page with a link to where to find them. You’ll also receive a full-body illustration of your character with reference data.

When you become a Vloxen geneticist, you’ll also get special access to the Cottontail Base section of our Discord so you can discuss your upcoming cameo Chios in secret! You can also hang out in the regular parts of our Discord over here!

The base price for a cameo Chio is $50 for a single-page appearance, but for $150 your character will appear on at least 3 pages with the possibility of a speaking part. (Speaking parts are limited.) These commissions will close near the end of February to ensure there is time to design the character and get them into the comic!

For more details and terms, check out the commissions page on our Ko-Fi!
