  • personal program

    Three quarters of this year were an unusable crawl, and the remaining quarter was working under an NDA, but for the holidays it’s personal program only, so the next* new years card is in progress– * (2025, hopefully, not 2026)

    Today’s small part of this year’s program of allowing myself to put in at least as much time and effort into personal work — off the clock, on my own time — as I would put in on work for Read More

  • blog year two

    During the silence while I was finishing the A+M comic, I forgot to mark the occasion of the blog making it through a full year. Hooray. I still think it was a good idea. So what now, in year two? Read More

  • A+M 2024

    Picking up where we left off two weeks ago—

  • moving the pen

    Cartoonist brain, at the end of an unusable day: “must move the pen. maybe I could at least draw some cars”

  • brief history (excerpt)

    This one could qualify as archival too, since it was drawn in 2021, but it’s personal work, and not out yet, so instead it’s a peek at the ongoing present, as I rework some of it this morning.

  • SLK 56

  • Stan Lee Kubrick 1234

    I find myself making strips again, so here’s the first four–
