I already kinda posted the hands comic on instagram already, so here's three more fuck-offs that I squeezed out of my freaking face, just in line-art form. I hope you enjoy my favorite new character: Stupid Sherlock Holmes.
Let's get real for a second! I turned into a pretty big stoner over the past several years (what a surprise), but having some panic attacks too close to one another has caused me to push back on it in a real way that has been affecting my mood and my concentration. I...

A comic they didn't want to pay me for. So here it is anyway.
The lettering under the panels is a new font I had someone make out of my lettering with a different pen style. It's good! I'm using it sparingly and letting it sink in. I still think the old font is gonna stick around for most dialogue balloons in comics, but I'm letting this new boy feel himself out.

parodying the classic "parental advisory" sticker they used to (still do?) slap on your favorite CDs. There's still a nagging part of me that feels like I should be responsible in letting a parent or other human being know that this is a rough book for kids, even with all the cartoonish art, but there's another part of me that's like "I would have loved to read raunchy ugly comics as a kid" and did sometimes (johnny the homicidal maniac comes to mind). Still! It's evocative of a Warning and t...

Here's a selection of the filler drawings for the book. Most, not all, are related to the story before it, as kind of a breather before the next. They'll be just on a black or other solid color background when inserted.
Try to guess which stories they go after (or before)!

Getting back into the habit of doing one of these strips as a starter for the day. Something to get my motor runnin'.
I've been getting the HiaGB book prepared! I'm ready to just kickstart this mother on our own, and the book right now comes in at a hefty 444 pages. That's just the main comics plus some interstitial drawings I'm doing. I want to include a separate extras book too, but I'm getting a little ahead of myself. The ball is rolling! Yowza!!

Here we go. After a weekend away and some time to start exercising those hands and arms, I'm back at it again and just being more careful with my lines and art and the hands that make them. Here's the finished versions from those fuck-offs earlier, minus the D&D one and the dabbing one. Those felt off and I decided to dump them instead of worrying over it.
Speaking of dumping, I'm gonna dump this comic after 100 strips (already at 30). This is a fun experiment in writing and comics,...

Here's four more I did in tandem with the last batch.
It might be slow goings around here. I've been experiencing wrist strains to the point of worrying that I'm developing some kind of "repetitive stress injury" so I've been just letting my hands rest and attempting some drawing a little bit at a time a day. I'm seeing a doctor today, but rest and hand exercises have made a slight difference so far. Who knows. The doctor might, which is why I'm going to one.
I submitted HiaGB to ...

today I sketched out a bunch of 'fuck-offs™' that I had building up. I'll admit the "dnd" one was mostly for that chant I thought up. Not sure how I feel about it as a whole, but that's part of the comic I want to embrace: telling those unsure thoughts to fuck off and do it anyway then fuck off and do some more. a give-and-take.

here's some wack shots of the next pinocchio chapter. I've been trying to thumbnail properly, which means loosey-goosey and dumber than usual. I have a tendency to get caught up just Drawing anyway, so I gotta remember to keep it small and aww(ful). See if you can follow along!

in a new "why not" attempt at merch, I'm taking the arc "Crange Leaves Himself" and making it into stuff that Topatoco can print on demand in-house. Specifically koozies (sleeves you put drinking cans into) and coasters (circles you put cans on). The back of the Koozie (and possibly coaster?) will have a flip side with Mind-Crange judging on and Body-Crange's butt.
I'd like to do another shirt for HiaGB while the time is still ...
