So, in case it wasn’t painfully obvious, this project has taken a back-burner for now. Recently ASP-related projects have been demanding all of my time. There’s a chance that in a month or two I’ll be able to return to the Donnie and his cases, but for now I’m just too swamped with other stuff to crank out a big page. I would like to keep it going and I have some stuff written, but in the meantime please enjoy some of the cool new stuff on AmazingSuperPowers!
