Don't be rude when you eat


Things are going to be changing with this comic. I'm going to change the format and start down a continuous storyline. Lets see how it goes.

Offending my friend and my response


So I've just gone with the creative flow and have been doing daily comics again and it keeps on going. I'm happy with my output and I hope others are too.

When I get asked (in imaginary interviews) "Who's your audience?" I usually say that I create most of my work with my friends in mind. They're the ones who inspire me, who teach me more than the internet or the books, and who I share my sense of humor with. If what I'm doing is annoying or bothering my friends there might be something wrong.

Unfortunately, my long time friend and cohort Levi Bailey (hi Levi) found my latest comic (the orange one) insensitive. This was the response I got from him, "Maybe you could make some money doing propaganda for the meat industry. This would be a great way to teach kids that it's okay to totally fuck over another species and eat their children to make our lives easier. Next you should try to make a "cute" comic about the de-beaking process, or the panic cannibalism that takes place in overcrowded cages."

I respect Levi and his beliefs and ideals. And I'm confident that my comic is purely satirical and I don't think that it honestly encourages the mistreatment of animals in the food industry. Maybe I'm taking his response too lightly by turning his "suggestions" into comics. But, I just feel that there's nothing sacred when it comes to humor and satire.

Enjoy!
If you're my friends you will.

Marie Test

Today is officially 24 Hour Comic day, and shortly I'm going to be joining number of other cartoonist in a rented hall here in Seattle to try and accomplish 24 written and illustrated comic pages. I have confidence that I'll succeed this time."This time"?

Years and years ago, maybe the year 2000 I attempted a 24 hour comic. I started at like 10pm and then worked all through the morning but crashed at like 11am. I gave up too easily. When I woke I did have 12 pages penciled and inked. I tried to do a page an hour without planning ahead. Not a good idea. Since it was a 24 hour comic failure I later drew a few more pages then colored it. For the first time, I'm showing off that glorified failure.

"Marie Test" is titled after a psychological test called the "three-paper test" created by Marie Pierre to test for aphasia. I randomly latched on to this idea and ran with it. It by no means has anything to do with the actual test. It just helped me move the story.

Hope you enjoy this strange and very immature comic.
