Previews for Monsters & Mysteries: Croak and Dagger are starting to trickle out to my patreon page
Everything’s going well!
Patrons will get fully colored pages as they’re produced, while the MnM website will start getting pages 2-3 times a week starting May 1st (or sooner) after I have a page buffer.

Second comic I wrote for Kotaku. I kinda just pitched the broad subject and didn't have a script in mind. Ended up going for a Mr. Peabody and Sherman vibe.
I am very proud of the Power Hotline panel.

First comic I wrote and drew for Kotaku. Was really happy with the script for this.

Dialogue needs punch-up, but the script is in solid enough shape to start drawing the second issue of M&M. Gonna see how individual page uploads are received instead of posting in bulk. I feel really good about where it's going, so thanks for the support these last few weeks.

responses to the comic such as these are why I did it and wanna keep doing it. I'm so thankful for the enthusiasm I've received.

Coloring the final page tonight, then spending tomorrow designing some bookends. Planning to go live as a Pay What You Want If You Want PDF on Gumroad, with some plans if people want to support more comics if they dig it enough.

I'm still working on inking the final few pages (plus a whole lot of coloring), so I'll miss my Halloween deadline, but here's a quick preview of what I've got cooking!

10 years ago to the day, I put in my notice at the Bose store I worked at, because for some reason I was allowed to start an art career when I had almost nothing to offer.
At the time, I was 3.5 years out of college and depressed to the point of googling “most painless way to unalive yourself”. I don't know what the search results looks like these days, but the ones I got weren't within my means, so I applied for a job posting on CraigsList and said I'd circle back to Plan A when I got rejected. I didn't have any work experience, so I made my resume the big stupid thing up top there.
I don't know how much of the document constitutes as "lying". Technically I didn't lie! I was featured in the publications I listed! They were not real jobs. I don't recommend doing this unless you're a really good bullshitter and you have literally no other options in life, and even then I'd tell you that I'm an awful role model and you shouldn't do what I did.
For some reason, I was hired! Bonus: my first assignment was drawing rocket ships for Johnson & Johnson. I don't know why they'd give that to an obvious liar! But I didn't realize it was a contract/freelance hire, which, if you don't know, is a complete lifestyle change from a normal job. I decided to jump right into the world of running one's own business because Plan A seemed less attractive now.

Over the years, I've had opportunities to work with major international brands, explore a bunch of different industries I never thought to work with, collaborate with folks I looked up to for years, worked on books and games and animation and music and ads and a bunch of other stuff. I'm very fortunate to have what others have told me is a "career" but what feels like a series of silly things that have happened to or around me. Lots of people took a chance on me when they probably should've hired someone with a better head on their shoulders.
Tumblr media
I don't use the Drawbarian resume anymore (I have work experience now!), and I don't think it represents me even a little bit, but I think self aggrandizing humor is way funnier than self depreciating humor, and that original drawing was so fucking bad that I wanted to see and enjoy my growth in something more tangible.
Plus I dunno muscle dudes are fun to draw.

Progress is going steady, though work/client/holiday obligations got in the way. We're in good shape to wrap up soon! Here are more previews because I'm too excited to wait.

Maybe the closest I'll get to working on an archie mega man, besides the time my comic got pixel crunched during their art contest :')

Running a horror-themed D&D one-shot, and my players asked me to make pre-gens for them. My secret hope is that they’ll be too distracted by their own character sheets to realize What I Did Here.
