When I worked at Mechanist Games in Xiamen, China, I briefly had the opportunity to draw a weekly-release comic strip series for Game of Sultans' player community. I thought maybe I could put together a full list of the comic strips I have drawn for Game of Sultans, along with the actual weblinks to their Facebook posts, for archival purpose:
1. Trick or Treat
At the time I drew this comic strip I was not yet a Community Operator at Mechanist Games, instead I was in the Art Outsource Management team in the art department. My manager was looking for an art outsource company who would take on an impromptu task of drawing a Halloween-themed comic strip at a week's notice, but, unable to find any candidates (apart from one art house that quoted 50000CNY for the one comic strip), I told him that I could give it a try. And I completed the following comic strip in 2 days. The brief I was given consisted of a dialogue script written by the Community Operations team, and a Halloween comic by Anythingcomic as stylistic reference.
When the comic strip was posted on November the 1st, it received 107 likes, 8 comments, and 3 shares, which, as I was later told, that was a surprisingly high performance in relation to the other posts that were posted around that time. I wonder if it would have done even better, had it been posted a day before?

2. Thanksgiving Turkey, in Turkey
10. Semi the Great, or Not-So-Great?
12. Piyale's Designer Hats
