Negotiation Breakdown
Up until this page Scum does not know a single person at the zoo’s actual name. When he introduced himself to Spry, Flip and Lori he did not bother letting them introduce themselves. This is wholly unintentional but feels like[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Important News that Raccoons Can Use!
APRIL FOOLS here’s a new comic. APRIL FOOLS I hope you like it. I actually had my comic planned out a different way to go with April Fools, but it would have made readers VERY SERIOUSLY ANGRY so I didn’t[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Obligations
I hope you enjoyed this chapter! SOON the climactic finale of Spry Adventure Comics book 1 begins! CATCH THE FEVER!!!
Kingdom Scum Cover
My fiancee did this issue’s cover! She loves me enough to draw a cover for me, but not enough to draw my entire comic for me while I sit on the couch playing wrestling video games. Her blog is here![…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Chapter 5 begins!
I am excited about sharing THE THRILLING CLIMAX of Spry Adventure Comics with you over the next 4 weeks!
Up on the Roof
This full color stuff ended up not being quite as time intensive as I thought, but I still personally prefer comics that use less.
I Imagine I Can Fly
I’m working on THE NEXT COMIC that’s going to be published after this book, and it’s so, so weird. The comic itself kind of, not working on SPRY ADVENTURE COMICS mostly. I guess it’s worth thinking about that my next[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Time Slows Down
It’s just jumping off of a roof! Tons of people do it by accident every year. Statistically speaking, not many of them end up flying afterwards.
The Pig Takes Flight!
The sun is setting in this comic, as it is on another week of updates! I hope you enjoyed this full colored week of updates (It was full color because the sun was still up)
Sorry
Mostly OK
This chapter’s title is Pig Icarus and I thought that it could have been a spoiler, so I the tag for this is chapter 5. I guess it’s also me finally settling on whether they’re “Chapters” or “issues” ALSO the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Panic Continues
I Want a Better Lecture When I’m Dying
Professional Popper, Amateur Locker
Once Spry Adventure Comics is done, I will be going back to either 3 or 4 updates a week. When I’m really far ahead like I am now, 5 updates a week is no problem, but when I’m doing a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Not quite a boy, not yet a doctor
Slowly shaping the next comic for you! I hope to be able to keep a schedule, but if I have to take off a week you’ll forgive me, right?! OH GOD PLEASE FORGIVE ME
Good Excuses
Why Is Everyone Yelling at Me?
I’ve been yelled at after getting hurt by my own hand by people. So I guess this comes from a true place.
Back to the Drawing Board
Stationary that doesn’t remain stationary
Winter in Pilotside
THE EPILOGUE (kind of). GUYS, this is the LAST WEEK for new pages for Spry Adventure Comics for a while! I have a few bits and baubles planned for May before I show you the next comic! I am bewildered[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Droppin’ In
Originally there was a lot of snow coming out when Flip opened the door, but I actually had no idea how to draw it, and since the rain at the end of last chapter came out kind of bad, I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Follow Your Dreams (or rip off someone else’s)
Pile Driver
Today I finished the cover for this issue, and I think it’s REALLY COOL, but you’re welcome to disagree! (on Monday when I post it.)
The End is a Beginning
And then they all sat down and read. Thank you so much for reading my first graphic novel! I really mean that. It seriously means the world to me. I have a lot more comics coming up soon, including a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The very end!
Should have posted this last Monday, but I had a bunch of freelance that I should have done a while ago, and I figured it was the perfect time to take a break! We’re going down to four updates a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
OK, pardon some possible growing pains as my comic is getting a format change. Besides being in ~*color*~ this new chapter is also in a different format. Hopefully the images won’t be too stretched or garbled and you will be[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Don’t be too excited about what he’s going to admit. You already know what happened. If not this comic is about to become INCREDIBLY confusing.
REMINDER: Despite what Scum told him to calm him down, Spry did almost die jumping off of that roof.
OK, I have had like six people need what happened in the graphic novel explained to them, and I realize it’s because I didn’t frame the scene of Scum dropping the hammer in an intellegent way. Luckily I have a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Technical babble: Every time I write a draft I change stuff. I do several drafts, usually three in just the writing stage, and then I letter my comic with the script. While I’m drawing and coloring my comic, if I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This is advice that seems obvious to most people, but I really wish someone would have told it to me when I was 13. Getting up the nerve to ask someone out is difficult but if you don’t want to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My politically charged rant about radiator heat.
And that’s another comic! I really hope you enjoyed it. I’ll be back the 20th to start COSMIC FRACAS, the first story that doesn’t take place in Pilotside proper. It’s a sci fi serial, and I’m going to guess that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Sorry about the hiatus – I was moving and settling in. I’m now in southern United States, a place I never, ever thought I’d live.
I’m moving into a two update a week schedule (the T-days) until I have a much larger buffer than I have now (currently 0 pages)
Watch and Weight
Time to Boogie!
So, I’m gonna try transferring this blog over to a new hosting service, so if the entire site goes down next week and I have to re-upload every single thing, that’s why. I’ll be back with Cosmic Fracas in a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This chapter was originally supposed to be less than 30 pages long, but I think you’ll be surprised to find out how long it wound up being. I’m about 20 pages deep into the book and the full thing will[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
If you care to purchase the entire thing now instead of reading it page by page between now and October, you can grab it here! I had to spend some time tagging the main characters from Spry Adventure Comics for[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Will I make the next “story so far” overly terse and short? Guess we’ll have to find out! Guess I’ll have to write it as well!
I don’t have many pages done but I should be able to keep up! Sorry for any future delays if they happen.
Side-Character Adventure Comics
Glowing Hearts, and every comic on this site, is a spin-off of a comic I’m never going to show you that I did almost a decade ago. The story itself wound up being too close to several other watershed comic[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Writing a comic and passing it off to someone else to draw is an absolutely wild concept to me, because the text in this page was being changed up to the last step before publishing it.
Are you sure though?
Wow, New York City really DOES have it all
Proportionally, humans are one of the lightest species considering the space they take up. Tisl is less dense than that, but tries to judge weights based on that. Anyway I don’t have to explain any of this, since we all[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

The Piggle and the Penguin
I didn’t know that the Mortal Kombat techno song was made by Lords of Acid under a pseudonym until I was looking it up for this page.
I suffer from a low grade kind of insomnia. On a good day I probably sleep about 4.5 hours. Today I got maybe 1.5 hours of incredibly unrestful sleep. That’s why I didn’t feel like color correcting the indexed version[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Speech’s Pit
Thank you for reading this chapter. I’ll be back next month some time with the next one. I’ll have little bits and baubles for you in the mean time, or, possibly, I won’t. Comics is work.
This section was originally two pages and it was basically just text. This is a trap that’s easy to fall in.
This is referencing something from the start of this chunk of chapters. Coincidentally, perhaps from the segment that, if I were making this to be posted all at once, would have been spread out over more space. If I reconfigure[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It’s not a party until people are discussing jRPG mechanics
In case people are confused: You’re NOT seeing the whole conversation here. I have an idea about the conversation they’re coming from, but it’s not the meat of what you need to hear. It’s like you’re ping-ponging between conversations.
Classy Lassies
This is the first page of this comic that’s done at digital publishing resolution, which probably isn’t an issue (all the pages are shrunk 25% it’s not like the math is hard), but if I put the comic in a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Real Mystery Classes
How do you pronounce “catch?” because I started making a pun for this page title, and realize I pronounce it three different ways and it made it impossible.
A peak behind the curtain: This and the next two panels were once the same page, but I’m trying to choke my pages with less word bubbles for clarity’s sake, even if it means having to do more drawings. The[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Wistare can have little a misunderstanding, as a treat. Not looking forward to tagging characters in this chapter.
1008 – Don’t Mind Him He Thinks EVERYTHING is Mummification.
10-09 Just like a tune launcher
I’ve had some form of insomnia or another since I was at least 3 so all of my characters have weird sleeping habits.
1010 – Impressive??? Feats?????
You can take one look at this site and know I don’t know how to program, so I don’t know if this is actually good.
1013 – Doubters tend to do that, yes
1014- On the Way Out
I’m moving right after I finish posting this comic, so I have no clue when chapter 11 will start. Also I haven’t molded it into an actual working story yet, it just has a beginning and end and then a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
