Throw-away Comic: Swear


This is the exact kind of corny comic that I meant to stop posting at ultracrispy.com. So I posted it here instead, where no one will see it.

Hiatus




I've invoked the scary "H" word, even though there already seemed to have been a hiatus between every comic update.  Well, now it's official.  My free time dwindles more and more, so I need to admit to myself that regular updates are out of the question.  During this hiatus I will try to figure out what kind of work I even want to be doing.  I've gotten pretty lazy in the joke-writing department.  I'd accept the flimsiest excuse for a joke as long as it gives me something fun to draw.  Perhaps that's a sign I should focus on illustration.  But then again I've always wanted try a plot-driven comic.  Regardless, I'll return if and when I can update with better quality and quantity.

Illustration: Galoot

Click the image for a super-sized version. 

Galoot. Is he hero or villain? Who knows? Who cares. His belt buckle reads "Y.E.S." as if to answer your question, "Will he be kicking my ass today?"

This is the only remaining page of a long-lost, bizarre, old comic worth a quite a few big bucks in collectors' circles. And it just so happens to be mine.

Just kidding. It's just some silliness I drew and edited to look old. The text in the speech bubble is the title of a track by the band Tortoise. It seemed like a good threat/catch phrase for a weirdo character.

Oh, by the way, here's the video for "Prepare Your Coffin":

Music: Claire Wails

I recorded my 2-year-old daughter playing as I attempted to get my stupid microphone to work. As a joke, I edited her wailings and based a short music track around them. At the end, you can hear the wailing unedited. I think she was actually singing, but normally her singing is less, uh, avant garde.

I think the track turned out all right, and if nothing else it makes me chuckle. But if it suddenly sounds really horrible to me after I wake up tomorrow, I'm going to take the video down and pretend it never happened.

Life Is Pretty Good When...

Don't make too much of the saying above. It's really just an afterthought that took me all of half a second to think up. I just thought the illustration would look nice with some pithy text thrown on top of it. The guy in the pic comes from a sketch I posted not too long ago. See the sketch below.
