Some years ago I made the mistake of deciding to become an author. I literally chose to dedicate hours per day to writing stories no one will read, editing stories no one will read, and sending out stories no one will read to publishers who most often reject me offhand.
Grendel #13-15: The Devil Inside
The Christine Spar saga is ended, but the story of Grendel is far from finished. Violence branches out like the twisting limbs of a tree in the dead of winter, and it’s in this season […]
Grendel #12: Devil’s Ends
Argent and Grendel face off one final time, in a violent back-and forth that leaves them both bloodied. Christine strikes the first blow, and Argent retaliates by destroying her weapon. Still, she’s hardly defenseless; she […]
Grendel #11: Devil’s Rampage

Grendel #6: Challenge the Devil
Gin’s interrogation at the hands of Argent proves … problematic. Argent isn’t in a position to be aggressive, even though he truly believes Gin is hiding information about Christine. Argent chooses a different tactic: he […]
Grendel #5: Devil in Despair
Grendel and Tujiro fight on the rooftop across from Brian Li Sung’s apartment, trading blows. Rather, Christine tries to hurt Tujiro without any luck, while Tujiro easily lands a couple painful blows. Christine’s ingenuity allows […]
