Chapter 1- Awake
Hi folks!
With chapter 7 in the works, I’ve also been working on another project: a Kickstarter for volume 2! This will be a shiny hi-res print collection of chapters 4, 5 and 6, plus some extra goodies!
To be notified of the project launch, check out the project link!

Secondly, it seems that since updating the site from ComicEasel to Toocheke, the RSS feed has been kind of busted. It’s been looked into, and it seems that it should be working so long as your feed link is https://centralia2050.com/comic/rss/. This has been verified to work with Feedly; if it fails to work, it may be an issue caused by an outdated reader. Admittedly, I’m not super-versed in the world of RSS readers, so if the issue continues to persist, let me know and I’ll see what can be done.
And lastly, chapter 7! Script writing is still underway, and I’m aiming to kick off with the first few pages some time in April. Until then, huge thanks to all your patience! Chapter 6 was a beast of a chapter at nearly 60 pages, so preparing for the next chapter is taking me a little more time, but I’m excited to share the next leg of the story with everyone soon!
Much love,
-Michelle

WOAH, oh man. I did NOT expect it to be that bad – I thought Midori would run off but almost to her death?! Thank goodness Grey was paying attention, and reacted in time.
The expressions of shock on both their faces are so heartbreaking ;-;
Grey looks a bit pissed at the end there though….I wonder what he’s thinking. I’m not sure if Midori actually yelled out Weiss’s name or not – which fits the seeming psychosis, honestly, being unsure what is said and what isn’t – but if Midori just *bolted* like that without saying *anything*….God.
Also I like the background people, they have a lot of diversity in appearance and reactions – some are gasping, a lot seem concerned. The attention isn’t good for them but idk, I guess i like that people aren’t completely checked out…even if nobody is doing anything, either. Bystander effect in full swing. something something SOCIETY.
Gaaaah ok final note, the composition is so good. The movement is so overwhelming and chaotic, the sudden appearance of the headlights of the train, the *whiplash* when Midori is grabbed – and the varying fonts overtaking the panels – like, Weiss shouts “Midori!” and it’s black text, then it shifts to Grey shouting it, and the text becomes white, then the final shout is black-and-white. It’s a tiny detail but it massively changes how things escalate, y’know? And how reality blurs, without using traditional text boxes. I notice more and more details the more I look. (“the doors are now closing”….is somehow so terrifying….)

Phew, that was a close call! This page has a great sense of movement and danger.
