Video Games Wet Dreams

20 May 2024 at 23:00

Here is a comic β€œinspired” by the current state of the video games industry, and specifically Microsoft’s boneheaded decision to close several studios, amongst them Tango Gameworks and Arkane Austin. Arkane especially was a favorite of mine. Prey from 2017 is right there at the top of my list of the best games ever made. For some reason not a lot of people played it. I implore you, check it out!

Cthulhu & Cthulia

Here is a comic! It went through countless variations for the final panel. I ended up on the one I liked the most, AND it was the easiest alternative to draw.

Speaking of cosmic horrors: I played Still Wakes the Deep over the weekend, and it really delivered on Lovecraftian vibes and body horror monstrosities. Also, it has a novel 70s oil rig setting and truly excellent Scottish voice acting. Check it out – Β if you can tear yourself away from the new Elden Ring DLC.

Jason vs September 13th (remix/rerun)

12 September 2024 at 23:00

It’s Friday 13th! Here’s a comic from the archives, altered to fit today’s date. I guess autumn hasn’t been quite as cold and grey here yet, but I feel that’s coming any day now.

Also, I’ve been sick the past week, but a new comic is coming on Monday. It’s about being sick!

Silent Chill

Yes, I’ve been having restless dreams about that town, Silent Hill lately. Turns out the new remake of Silent Hill 2 is excellent!

Also, I am participating in a new horror anthology series aiming to be out next year! Check it out on Kickstarter! The concept: comic strip artists make longer-form horror stories. So if you want to see a 4-5 page horror story from me, as well as several other fantastic webcomic artists, be sure to back the campaign. Be quick, October 31st is the last day!

Final Destination

Here’s a comic! This one came to me while I was listening to MJ Lenderman’s Ghost Town.

Also, I spent a lot of time going back and forth on the ordering of these panels. I ended up with the original order, but at some point I figured 3, 1, 2 would be better. What do you think?
