    I had to have some kind of happy ending to this overall grim series of pandemic comics. Jessica has been my anchor during this pandemic. She’s helped me retain a grip on reality during my most uncertain moments. More than that, really. These comics wouldn’t exist without her. Her constant support & belief in what…

  • Sublimation

    Good news: the hospital bill that got sent to collection has dropped off my credit report! Bad news is I’m running up against my credit limit, but that’s another credit issue folks.

    Social Distancing: A Comic About the Pandemic

    I’ve been meaning to post these comics for a long time. It was something I stopped prioritizing because I wanted to release this comic series out as a zine first. Now that I’m doing the zine, I can share this series of pandemic comics. These also appeared in Human Stuff 2: Cuts of Me. These…

    Hourly Comic Day 2022

    Another thrilling Hourly Comic Day! I’m a big furniture assembly head. Just try keeping furniture unassembled around me. I didn’t get too far with the name Generator, I have a memory of those things being more imaginative, or at least having better prompts. Despite trying to stay busy, grief still has a pretty strong hold…
