In 2011 NJ suffered a serious back/neck injury that caused her chronic pain that kept her from working on comics for 7 years. In 2018 she made a complete recovery and returned to webcomics but decided to bring back UF instead of EE (but claims she will eventually revive EE in some way). UF officially re-launched on July 25th, 2018 (same day as NJ's birthday) with Chapter 01 completed and started updating new pages every MWF. After a couple months the update schedule got changed to a monthly format. Now the comic updates with a full completed chapter on the 1st of every month, with early access to the next chapter given to Patreon supporters.
