I ran out of time and didn't finish the Newspost I wanted to; it'll have to wait until next week. It's a cool one!
Instead…this.
It can be a challenge to “be yourself”. It can be difficult to even define what that means. Most people probably ...
A Fate Worse Than Death

part of the painting “The last days of Messolonghi” by François-Émile de Lansac
First things first- Happy Holidays everyone!
In all types of creative writing and artwork, and definitely in webcomics we always talk about the ultimate stakes in the game- death. Death is absolute and irreversible (except when it ...
One Dimensional Characters
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 22, 2016
Talking Stock
A good character is a three-dimensional character, right? They have to be relateable. With wants and fears that make sense. And a bit of a history. And a flaw or two to keep them “human”. And a wound to try and overcome. And maybe even a contradiction within ...
Good Artists Copy, Great Artists Steal

So this quote that, according to Google, is attributed to Picasso, popped up in my facebook feed, and now I want to talk about it.
At first I thought to make the newspost about plagiarism vs. inspiration, but it sounded something self explanatory, especially in a community of comic artists ...

Some of my friends seem to be able to work with limitless distractions around. Fairly regularly I go over to my friend’s house ...

The Table Scene

It’s the ultimate horror.
You are trapped with your very own demons.
You cannot escape- you will not be excused.
You will need to look at them, as they look back at you, and do a reckoning.
At least until dessert.
In my opinion, in all creative writing/art ...
S'now Time Like the Present
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 1, 2016
We had a big snowfall two weeks ago, and I was out driving the city in it (I have a part time delivery job).
My car and I held up pretty well in it, and that was satisfying. As the news warned people to stay off the roads, I was ...
