Negotiations

Those you paying attention may have noticed that the teaser panel I put up last night as the second panel is actually the full strip’s first panel. This is a good example of the last minute rewrites I sometimes do. I decided that the first panel was really just a waste of space, I present [...]

This End Up

Woohooo! I managed to get this strip done without having to resort to doing a teaser strip to cover my slackness. I actually intended for there to be an additional subtext within this strip, but towards the end I decided to cut it due to time constraints, plus it would been pretty crowded in the [...]

While fire is a fun story element to use, it’s a bitch to draw and do lighting effects for. Especially on weeks where you have no inspiration whatsoever.

Lesser Of Two Evils

People have been bugging me for months to get Biff out of his towel and into some normal clothing. I never really planned for him to be wearing his towel for so long, I just never got around to changing it. I’m quite happy with how the gorilla suit turned out. Oh, and if you’re still [...]

Intervention

One of the things that’s always bugged me about television shows where the plot doesn’t advance from week to week, is how after every episode the slate is wiped clean and they start again. There are advantages to this approach, ie easier to throw random ideas together that don’t follow a specific story arc to form [...]

As is often the case with artistic endeavours, collaboration is the key to success. Today’s strip features the most collaboration with Trent on a single strip to date. “Many hands make light work” as they say, and hopefully this will enable me to get over the occasional bout of writers block or work or other [...]

Well, not only is this strip not a few days late, it’s early! Holy crap! Well, it helps alot when I’ve got a really well defined idea worked out for a strip. If you recall, I mentioned this little plot arc involving beer in the comments for Strip #28, which was November last year. At [...]

Beer

Wow. What a sucky week. I must apologise for the lateness of the comic. My brain hasn’t been working at all the past few days. I sat there staring at the unfinished strip for what seemed like hours and never seemed to be getting anywhere. What’s worse is that the strip wasn’t even technically challenging [...]

Purple Deluxe

Well, we hit 50 comics. Woot. Significant milestone. I don’t consider it as important as another upcoming milestone: 64 comics. Why 64? Starting with comic #013 I’ve kept a once-a-week release schedule. If that continues til #064, then I’ll have done 1 entire year of the weekly schedule!

The First Hit Is Free

Ahh… simpler times. When men were men, Biff was wearing a shirt, and Postie played Wow. I’m somewhat proud of the fact that I actually had to spend some time researching the reputation grinding stuff in WoW in order to actually write that last joke. I’ve completely lost touch with the intracacies of the game. [...]
