Another page of Goats! Let's get right to it:

Hooded mysterious figures? Seems sus. I wonder who our new visitors are? Maybe we'll find out soon.

2024 SFAM Portrait Commissions Now Closed!

All slots have now been filled, thank you! Keep an eye out for next time, right here.

Hi everyone! The SFAMsona portrait commissions went well last year, so I'm offering them again for 2024! I've had some extra bonus expenses this month (including repairs to my smashed car that was hit-and-run while parked), so here we are!

Last time everyone opted for the color por...

More Goats! Here we go:

Looks like someone has overstayed their welcome. It is very VERY difficult to annoy Alfred. Impressive.

More soon! Thanks for your support!

Goats Book 5 Page 17

A new page of Goats! And a couple of characters we haven't seen much of in the last ten or fifteen years. All these things are yours now.

Not much to add right now, I'm hoping not so long a delay before the next page this time. I have to do a bit of writing but the plan is to go straight back to ...

Goats Book 5 Page 16

Hey everyone! It's another page of Goats! Sorry this one took so long, I've been packing Kickstarter packages the last couple of weeks and they're just about ready to ship, which means hopefully I'll be able to focus a bit more on drawing and making more comics for you. Not much longer now!

Anyways, here's your new page:

Goats Book 5 Page 15

Howdy folks! Lots of new patrons here this time, a lot of you responded to my call for help. Thank you. And extra thanks to all of my long-term patrons who upped their pledge. I still need to figure out how to increase my income by a bit every month, and I could still use any help you all are willing to provide, but for now I think I should be able to keep ma...

Hi everyone! Before we get to the new page of Goats, may I have a minute of your time?

I know it's in short supply. Over the last few years I've not had as much time as I'd like. Parenting has been a challenge for me! It means I have to focus the limited work time I have on things like making comics instead of things like promotion of this Patreon. And, over those years, I've seen a decli...

Goats Book 5 Page 13

Another page of Goats! This time, with expository dialogue!

Not gonna lie, that seems bad. Not great at all.

The last couple of weeks have been a bit rougher than I anticipated! The surgery had me out of commission for some time, and then a bronchial infection swept through the hous...

Goats Book 5 Page 12

Greta is back! For a little while, anyway.

Wanted to make sure I got this page to you tonight, I have a small surgical procedure tomorrow, outpatient stuff, no big deal. But I might not be able to draw for a few days and I wanted to make sure you had something to tide you over.

While I re...

Goats Book 5 Page 11

I've got more Greta for you this week. She's my new fave.

It's been a busy couple of weeks for me! The boys had their B'nai Mitzvah this past weekend, and I've been running around like a Diablo the Chicken action figure with the head removed. Now all that is behind me and I am eager to get some work done.

Today I'm going to work on finalizing sticker designs for the upcoming SFAM ...

Goats Book 5 Page 10

Page ten! That's double digits, we've entered new territory here. This is promising. I predict many more pages in the future.

Mr. Wells! It's been a minute since we've seen him. He likes owls, apparently. Who knew?

Goats Book 5 Page 9

One of the fun things about coming back to these characters after such a long hiatus is that sometimes even I am surprised to see how they've changed! For example, Scroggs used to be a libertarian but now she's a socialist.

Everything is still a clusterfuck but I'm working as hard as I can to get these pages to you before Heat Death. More soon!

Goats Book 5 Page 8

Hey! This one took a little longer than expected, I spent a bit working on new sticker designs, spent a few days writing, and everything else was a huge clusterfuck that kept me from working as much as I'd like. Anyway! I have the next ten pages written, so hopefully there won't be any more longish delays, provided I encounter no resistance from the universe. It's possible. 

Enough b...

Goats Book 5 Page 7

Another page! Jon and Camazotz, together again. It warms the heart. 

I have to write another batch of scripts for this but I might swing back to Dungeon DIvers for a page or two first, don't want to leave that hanging! But there'll be more Goats very soon. 

Thanks for ...

Goats Book 5 Page 6

It's Page 6! A little bit of environmental storytelling for you here. Work is work, no matter where you are. 

Okay! I'm back at it, more here as soon as it's drawn. You get to see these literally moments after I complete a page, and they're not available anywhere else....

Goats Book 5 Page 5

Here's page 5! This one was fun to draw. One of the benefits of doing this a page at a time instead of as a compilation of newspaper-style strips is that I have a bit more flexibility with the layout, since it doesn't need to tile. I think pages like this will be the result. 

Tha...

Goats Book 5 Page 4

Here's the fourth page of New Goats! I'm having a blast working on these, got a bit carried away on that sixth panel I think but it was useful to have a space to work on updating the visual vocabulary of the Xibalba location. Hopefully I'll be able to expand and improve on that in upcoming pages. 

Remember, New Goats will be published here exclusively until production is finished! En...

Goats Book 5 Page 3

I hope everyone had a relaxing holiday and New Year and all that jazz, I took some time off with my kids but I'm back and drawing my tiny chubby fingers off. This is page 3 of New Goats! Meet Sage. We'll find out more about her soon. 

This has been fun to work on so far, which is how I know it's going to stick this time. I'll see you back here really soon, probably with a Dungeon Div...

Goats Book 5 Page 2

Goats is back! Again! This is page two of the final volume. Enjoy! The next page is written and on deck. I'll post it in the new year, because I am taking some time over the holiday to do all the non-comics tasks I've been putting off all year. That should only take a week, yeah? 

Anyway, I hope y'all are taking some time for yourselves this holiday season as well. And I hope you are...

Dungeon Divers 29 Redraw

Dungeon Divers is back! In Pog form. No? I'm hearing the pogs aren't ready. But this redrawn page is!

Here you go:

Here's the original page, for comparing:

FREE Signed & Sketched Bookplates with every Goats book until December 8th!

In preparation for the new SFAM Kickstarter I had a whole mess of books shipped to my house and now there are too many books here. I need to get rid of a bunch of them, so now Goats books are on sale! 

I also received a stack of about 300 signed and sketched bookplates, which were left over from the  Goat...

I owe a huge debt of grati...

Crab City Nights Kickstarter: Final 48 Hours

Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed the new page of Goats I posted last night, I had fun making it and I'm looking forward to seeing what the rest of the gang has been up to all this time.

More urgently, I'm here to remind you that the SFAM Book 5 Kickstarter has entered ...

Goats Book 5 Page 1

Goats is back! I've cracked the story after all this time and I'm ready to finish it now. And it's exclusive to Patreon patrons. Only you will get to read it while it's being made. 

Schedule? I don't know. As frequently as I can, interspersed with Dungeon Divers redraws and all the other things. I've been working on this for months in secret, rereading, making notes, making plans. As...

Crabs Accomplished!

The SFAM Book Five: Crab City Nights Kickstarter has reached its funding goal! Woohoo! Thank you to everyone who pledged and helped spread the word, this is your victory, you made this happen. I cannot thank you enough. I will keep trying, though.

SFAM 5 Kickstarter: Final Week

Howdy! Just wanted to let you know that the Scenes From a Multiverse Book 5: Crab City Nights Kickstarter is now in its final week! If you were waiting for a time late in the campaign to help put it over the top, now is that time. We need to raise another $6k in seven days i...

Hey everyone! Patreon has enabled support for a patron shop! I can offer you ebooks and other goodies at a discount here, but the best feature is that I can make items free for different tiers of patrons. 

So, to start, I've added all of the ancient B&W Goats volumes (the "Silver Books") and made th...
