Some have been wondering where the next chapter is, and rightly so. So it’s time to get some information out about all this.
First I would like to apologize for the lack of updates, but believe me, they are coming. 2039 is still in large a one person operation, the secondary aid comes in editing, and other work outside the on-line series. The holiday, a harsh tough winter, and all the problems coming with that have made it alittle tough to get things going.
” but what is going on now?”
Right now chapter 5 is nearing completion as it needed a few re-writes to clear up some things. Also there has been talks with a publisher over full blown publication and distribution of the series, which should things be continuing at the pace they have in that department, could be seeing the first books to go on sale mid summer.
And last but not least has been translations into several several languages of previous chapters following many requests for Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish.
Another major change is coming to the manga itself…in the way that the series is now being done more ” traditionally” less Digitally. Which will be making its debut with the next chapter ( did I mention the first part of it is color?)
so hang on and check back as we WILL have the chapters ( and even books) rolling out very soon!

With the sumer winding down, and conventions, and craft shows slowing it’s time to kick up the work load, the third chapter will be out soon, production has slowed a little due to buisness outside the series itself.
The third chapter titled: Death’s Shadow; focuses on two major cards in the 2039 saga, Joubu corporation, and EbonClaw Industries. you can get a glimpse at the key players of the ECI group now over in the character profiles.
There is also some fan art added over to the left, as well as more coming in that should be posted soon..
And lastly. following the release of the third chapter, we will be releasing 2039: Micro Volume 1.
A Micro Volume is a small, Dojin style book containing three chapters at a time, fan art, concept art, and other things related that are released over those three chapters…
The Micro Volume will be made available through our Etsy shop, and don’t worry well make sure to tell everyone the moment they go out..
Don’t forget to keep an eye out in the future for 2039 Volume 1..but the full 20 chapter volumes wont be ready for a time.
I would also like to personally thank all the support and fans over at Etsy.com community. They have some amazing hand made items over there I would suggest checking out.
