This is probably meaner that it needed to be, but whatever. Do people still say "kiting"? Do people know what that is?
The first pin was originally going to say "I'm not a gender. I'm ME." as a reference to the best loiter squad sketch, but that would actually seem to imply that the wearer...

I worry I went to far with this one-- too verbose, to many jokes-in-jokes and callbacks, getting lost in the sauce of it all and muddling the whole thing overall. Is this still a clean read? Do these jokes stil...

Obviously, everyone in the comic is meant to be viewed as a reactionary moron, but I think the Tradcath guy gets off kinda light here. Really, all we know about him is that he hates Pope Gayis.
Let’s go inside the mind of the creator for a second. Page 1— the joke here is that these reactionary weirdoes are so paranoid that they’ll create these descriptions of reality that are compl...

This was originally going to be pitched to The Hard Times, but I figured why should someone with my amount of followers be giving my ideas to less funny places? I can get eyes on it without help. A brief flash of excitement, at any opportunity to get paid to be creative (it's probably a paltry sum, though)
Sorry, another comic that’s going to be pretty much inaccessible for a good chunk...

I liked to imagine “Me and Michael” by MGMT playing over that last little panel in the bottom right.
Ah, smokers. What can you say about ‘em? On the one hand, they’ve been duped by one of the most vile and evil marketing campaigns in human history (through no fault of their own, of course) but on the other, I’ve never seen an addict so utterly generous with their choice of poiso...

In case you somehow haven't heard, I've been spending the past several months working on an illustrated novella... and here it finally is!!!
No epub format, unfortunately-- doesn't play nice with the finicky image formatting. Sorry!

I probably could have delivered that third panel rug-pull a little bit better, with a little more oomph, but whatever. Live and learn.
My novella is nearing completion! Please bear with me! Your support is greatly appreciated.

Aww, look at that little guy— how could you say no to someone like that? No, really— how would it be possible? Richard Nozick would like to know!
Anyway-- this comic draws on two fairly well known (I think?) philosophical concepts— Nietzche’s Blonde Beast, from the Genealogy of Morality, and Richard Nozick’s utility monster, a thought experiment that at...

Alternate punchlines included; Abel seeing the names of a bunch of pornstars or that list of files that Bin Laden had on his computer. Remember that?
Apologies that there haven't been any comics in this last month. I've been working hard on a new novella-- doing a ton of punch-ups and editing, as well as adding illustrations. Thank you for your patience, everyone. I want to create the bes...

The first page is laid out quite well, IMO, though the second one is a little cluttered. There are a lot of elements going on that have to be made clearly readable; it might have turned out better if I had a stronger sense of color.
There was an alternate version of the second page that revolved around two archetypical “bro” types expressing the five love languages in arche...

I basically felt like complete shit the entire time I made this, for obvious reasons, and contemplated whether it should even go up at all. I recall hearing various people complain that we are in the midst of a cataclysmic extinction event in slow-motion, and yet the all the art we’re getting is basically just same surface-level bullshit— nothing that really dares to grapple with the curren...

Chuck Palahnuik's short story Guts opens with the following instruction to the reader:
Take in as much air as you can. This story should last about as long as you can hold your breath, and then just a little bit longer. So listen as fast as you can.
which is an interesting, experimental narrative technique, which not only gives a sense of the story's length, but co...

The main thesis of this comic is, if it wasn’t clear, that I am not much of a reader, which might surprise people, given how much I write, or rather, might actually just surprise the people who read my comics, who are, by definition, comic readers, who I feel like are perhaps maybe a group not particularly known for being big readers of literature themselves, and as such my level of kinda-sor...

As I’ve been reading and writing more over time, I’ve found it necessary to communicate increasingly specific and abstract concepts and emotions— sort of like a painter finding a need to use increasingly more specific colors. (Does that happen? Not much of a painter.) In this case, there’s something about this new crop of distasteful children’s films— not all of them Pixar, I’ll g...

I'm in Austin.
That's a fun little joke format, isn't it? You get the punchline up front, and get to hold onto it until it comes in handy at the end. I think just leaving it with the minimal information of 'Austin' with no visual or textual description is funnier than if I just sat around rattling off reasons why I'm disgusted, or making visual gags about all the rando...

Alternate Title: A Different Kind of Twinkie Defense
I agonized over different methods of delivering that punchline, and am still not satisfied. The idea is really funny I think-- your harebrained defense, based on the first half of the subjects name is even more convincingly destroyed if you just look at the second half of their name. I just wasn't sure the best way to com...

A short journal comic of a funny thing that happened to me on a walk. Wasn't really planning on uploading to patreon, originally, but I do think it's pretty funny, so here it is.
Omitted: sentence in the thought bubble in the first panel that would have read "They should've made an anime out of Franken Fran instead of gay ass Chainsawman", for obvious reasons.

I hated drawing this mutated frogs. Google “mutated frogs” if you want to see something stomach turning— far more effective body horror than anything comic or piece of art I’ve ever seen.
For the first joke, I really wanted to show the model in question nude, uncensored, pussy fully out. I really think it would have landed better. Why? Well if you’re familiar with those...

Incoming-- lots of hilarious geniuses quote tweeting this post with "this but unironically".
Originally, the acronym was going to spell out something foul like "BOGPUSSY" or "HAGZ" but I figure I really ought to try and reach a little higher than keep returning to the same well of shock/sex humor-- at least not all the time.
