Arrival at last, in a New Comic!
(Previous new comic
here in case you missed it!)

If you're new to Dragon Mango, the story may make slightly
more sense if you start at the Beginning.

May 3, 2026 - So, two updates within the space of a few days, and then a month of nothing... yep, that's Dragon Mango alright.

(Yes, there WAS an update right before the April Fool's one - in case you missed it, it was this one, so you don't start reading with the new comic and wonder what happened to the barbarian bandits.)

Sorry for the wait! I've been very busy with some very exciting projects that I can't talk about just yet, and it's kept me away from the drawing table. Well, that and that Mango's dragon form (and the airship) are both a pain in the butt to draw.

An interesting note is that the airship actually DOES have a 3D model that I've used on occasion (eagle-eyed readers have doubtless noticed), but it doesn't always look good from every angle. And I don't know about you, but to me it sticks out like a sore thumb when a 3D model is just plonked into an otherwise hand-drawn comic, and it looks weird. So today's views of the airship are lovingly drawn by hand...

Which means that the Ingressgift's design is very inconsistent. Sorry about that!

Anyway, hope you enjoy the comic, and more to come soon!
