With issue 5 delving deeper into Raoul's backstory, we wanted to showcase a sprite you'll be seeing, designed by the fantastic @jojoabob.bsky.social.

Here's Raoul at age 6, 40 years before the start of Glory Hounds, already obsessed with comic books and all sorts of heroes.

Who needs a bed when you've got a big whale man?

Here's a little sneak peek of one of the CGs featured in issue 4, drawn by Juju, one of our CG artists!

Looks like Milo and Alex are having a little chat in the greenhouse.

At 10 feet tall, Ahab's the largest of the bunch - a fact he's all too proud of. He now runs the biggest criminal organization in the city - entirely pirate-themed, with a ban on swearing and unprovoked violence - and when he's not going on grand heists, he's not above stealing a few hearts.

Milo is Raoul's butler, teacher, and only real friend at the start of the story. Not much is known about his past, though his innumerable scars and frightening proficiency in combat paint a pretty good picture. While he doesn't emote much, Milo cares deeply for those he regards as friends.

There are three potential love interests for Alex.

First up is Raoul, a reclusive but famous inventor whose attempts to better everyone's lives ended up revolutionizing the city of Schippersburg. His love for comics led him to train in combat and take on the mantle of the Dawn Hound to fight crime.

As threats continue to mount and a mysterious force urges him on, Alex will have to fight for the fate of his city - as well as decide his own.

As long as he can keep his head in the game, that is.

Thrust into a position as the Dawn Hound's sidekick, Alex soon finds the job comes with a lot more workplace hazards than he bargained for, from an underwater crime syndicate run by a whale with a penchant for pirates to a master thief who can turn invisible at will.

Alex de Rooij is a dalmatian working a dead end job in the futuristic city of Schippersburg. That all changes when he meets the Dawn Hound, a mysterious masked vigilante... who just so happens to be the enigmatic inventor behind the company he works for.
