Island of the Giants #1 - Re-release

Hi all, About a year ago I released a quick & cheap illustrated story as a trial, just to test the idea of a fun plot and dozen images for a couple of dollars. Recently I went back to look at it and felt that I could do better, so have created a remastered version of the story. It is now fully coloured and the character designs have been somewhat reworked also.


The good news is, I've intended for it to be free for everybody who bought the original version, and have created an application for people with the old version to upgrade on their Lulu account, which you should be able to see below (if not, there is a direct link here). It may only work in modern browsers sorry (post 2010), and if you have any problems please let me know. (Edit: This tool will go down on Jan 31st 2021 due to Google billing changes. If you still want to use it feel free to contact me)

  1. This was a welcome surprise, I love how you can really see her as the same character going through a progression now with the coloring and redesign.

  2. I am having problems doing the upgrade. Does the file title need to be the same as the one you have there? I am using the old story and an upgraded Firefox Browser.

    Thank You!

    1. Hiya Annie,

      The title doesn't need to be the same, the contents of the file are checked against the versions I had, but it's possible that Lulu modified the file in some way for some releases. If you can't get it to work, feel free to email me the file at ausdpr@gmail.com and I'll hook you up with the download link, as well as add your version to the valid list.
