PS: I forgot to mention two things.
#1: I saw The Mighty Boosh perform live at the Con. They were pretty good, if a bit brief and also, honestly, a lot of their stuff loses weight when it’s not on screen. Which is odd, seeing how they started as a stage show.
Also, I want to highlight [...]

I have survived Comic-Con and all I got was this stinking comic
Hey all!
Sorry I didn’t go through with my promise to front-load a week’s worth of comics. I ended up way, way more busy getting DropKick stuff prepared for Comic-Con. Speaking of Comic-Con, you should read the five things I learned there.
This was my first trip to San Diego, let alone Comic-Con, and let me tell [...]

Musketeers Assemble!
I love doing Three Musketeers comics, but I do seriously believe that these guys have reached a point with me where they are only limited by the comic-strip medium. I have ideas for vast and sweeping short stories that involve character development and risque comic shenanigans too complicated to fit into a three or four [...]

Late Comics
Sorry I’ve been absent from the site for the last two days. I’ve been mad-busy working on the site re-design along with a bunch of other side projects, so I haven’t had the time. I’m actually going to make it up to you this weekend by filling in the rest of the week [...]

Next Week, My Social Life Dies
Almost one year ago, I started Meaningless comics. We’re not quite to that date yet (it’ll be about a week), but I’m already planning some celebratory happenings. I’m being lazy about it though. I need to fix that.
Anyway, about 10 months ago, I started this blog, intending it to have almost nothing to do with [...]

Phase 2
Now that Phase 2 is complete, the world is next.
Please draw your attention to the following-
This is a very real movie.
Why don’t I work on movies like this? Want more proof of its awesomeness? TRAILER!

Crow and Scarecrow
Today I felt like drawing something like a comic strip, for once. You know, unlike my usual random, non-formulaic drawings, this actually has a formula and other conventions of typical comics. I just felt like trying it out.
It has a very standard formula, too. It works as follows:
A= Left Character (the Scarecrow), B= Right Character [...]

Introducing THE EXPERIMENTAL MAN
So, Mana Akua isn’t the only “comic book” I’ve been working on. My good friend and ex-roommate Andy Robinson and I created something called The Experimental Man, something a little more traditional to the super hero side of comics than Mana Akua.
I’ve been keeping a secret, but Robinson decided to put a sketch up on [...]

Sam Rants: How My Childhood Missed-Out on “Opus”
As a child, I read the Sunday comics page of The Birmingham News religiously. At the time, The Far Side was still going (on its death-bed, but still going) as was Calvin & Hobbes and Peanuts, three of the biggest inspirations on my own comics (and my life). With every visit to the book store, [...]
