the character of the guardian was really complex. He cursed and has had many years to think about things… Since the sword chose the bean, the guardian recognizes this as a release and longs secretly to be set free for his actions many many years ago.

Just found this site and read through it all immediately. Great work, Travis Hanson! Your imagery combines the communicative minimalism of Frank Miller with the delicate detailing that makes Bill Waterson's work so magical. The story is as lush as anything by Bill Willingham did and as cleverly playful as Jeff Smith's work. Well done! I will be here daily looking for updates.

Speaking of bean's kidnapper, I can't wait to find out how Bean's new friend will deal with him.
At least *I* think he/she/it is a friend…..I mean…Bean's not dead YET, is he?
BTW, add me to the group who thoroughly love this comic 🙂

You will have to wait and see:) as for being a friend i am not sure either but i can agree that he must not be too evil because you are right – bean is not dead yet.
Glad you are enjoying the tale. and i have added you to the group:)

Cliffhanger! Bah! Thoroughly enjoying your work and I’m anxiously awaiting the next one. But he’s the one right? Or maybe he isn’t? Hmmm…

Thanks my friend- sorry about cliffhangers if you want to bypass those the comic books can be bought at http://www.beanleafpress.com/store/
As for bean being the one- if you have just read todays update the answer to the question has been answered:)
I am glad you are enjoying the tale

lol… wait til you see the paddles:)
or did bean's kidnapper ever make it to the sword chamber?

My inclination is that the kidnapper is standing back at the entrance tunnel, holding a length of broken rope, and thinking something to the effect of, "Dang. I really thought this was the one that would survive the retrieval process. I guess I'll have to find another…"
I can't say enough good things about the atmospherics of your art. It's so immersive!

the young Hero find “the sword” and must proof himself against a huge Monster. Hmm.. with the last Page i hear the “Bossfight Theme” from Secret of Mana.
