Following the release of issue #4, the story of Twelve Saints is now in full gear. The current arc has just one issue remaining and it promises to be the most thrilling so far.
To mark the occasion, artist Paracelsus decided to showcase a special preview of the upcoming next chapter in the form of a livestream of the entire process of drawing a full page of Twelve Saints: starting from a blank canvas and ending up with a finished page (without letters of course, no spoilers), with everything in between. The process in a whole took about 12 hours, but most pages will be done in about half of that.
Readers can expect special previews like this for every first page of subsequent Twelve Saints issues, as well as more updates on a very exciting development for the world of Kedavaara coming very soon. But until then, we leave you with the full finished page, as well as videos detailing the process of its creation further below.
