Hello Aikonia readers!

Long time with no word from me! I know I tend towards the quiet side, but I always appreciate Aikonia's readers and supporters, and love seeing the comments you folks have on the comic.

Many of you wished me well when I had to take a break for health reasons earlier this year, and I wanted to shout out some thanks to everyone who sent well wishes, everyone who continues to follow the comic, and to Aikonia readers in general -- y'all have been awesomely supportive and a great audience to work for.

As the Aikonia crew takes a brief holiday break, don't forget that Aikonia merchandise is still on sale through January 2nd.

Happy holidays, everyone!

By the way, all Aikonia merchandise is on sale in the MADSOFT Store until January 2nd! Shipping usually takes about a week, so you still have time to order something if you want to receive it before the 25th! Check it out now!

Hello everyone!

Last year's holiday illustration featured Aikonia's adventurers reinterpreted as characters from the Charles Dicken's classic "A Christmas Carol."

Since we had a distinctly Christmas-themed illustration last year, this time around we wanted to represent another, sometimes overlooked, holiday. We want to make sure all our readers feel included, no matter the traditions they celebrate (or do not celebrate) at this festive time of year. That being said, we hope you enjoy this special Hanukkah-themed Aikonia illustration.

Happy Holidays, everyone! And don't forget to check back on Thursday for a new journal entry!
