A DISTANT SOIL 6 Cover |

The original art to this cover is long gone, but this is a digitally restored and enhanced painting taken from a scan of a copy.

Thank you to the charming webcomic Swiftriver for linking to A Distant Soil. I look forward to a nice long sit this weekend to give Swiftriver a good read!

UPDATED! This is the art used for the digital edition, and it differs somewhat from the print version.

Hi Adam,

Sometimes the site hiccups and the page won’t load. I can see it now. Try refreshing the page.

I can’t see anything on this page, either. Is this supposed to be the same cover painting as is shown on this page?

I assume the site hiccup continues, because I can see the page fine. It could be your browser. These are two different paintings.

I have noticed that if I load anything high res, it tends to mess with the site. I will try to go back and load a lower res version of this page.

I double checked the size of this file, it’s not high res. I”m not sure what’s going on. Let me dig a bit.

First, let me say that I’m really amazed by this comic! *o*
I’m currently on the Ascendant Cover page, and no other page so far has “hiccuped” for me like this one. I’ve tried reloading it several times, with long and short intervals. All the other pages have loaded just fine.
I’m reading this in Chrome, but I’ll try a different browser to see what happens.

Just a note to say that I tried viewing it in Waterfox (a Firefox clone) and it wasn’t showing up for me there either.

Thanks so much for letting me know. I will redo this page when I get back in the office. I truly appreciate your taking the time to point this out to me!

I’ve updated the image, please let me know if you can see it. Thank you for your help!

I can see it! After clearing my cache and cookies with no success, I tried turning off Adblock, and now it shows up. Strange, because that hasn’t been a problem on any of the other pages. Still, thanks for going to the effort to fix it! It’s a great picture. I like the watercolour in the background and the fierce look on the guys!
