APD7: Always Good taste


Considering that earlier this summer, this many figures and faces would have intimidated the hell out of me, and now I do it in less than a day,  I fell good about myself.

By the way proper soundtrack to this comic is Taylor Swift "Shake it off," and Regina Spektor "Dance Anthem of the 80s."

APD6: Dance it Off


Here, you go. I have to admit having Fridays off is pretty sweet, even if I do pay for it by being strung out the other four days. Anyway, I'm going to go run some errands and start on the next strip.

ADP5: Hobby-Horse-Trampled

I never thought I would try to make a point with Batman bowing to the Arc of the Covenant or pre-school teachers assaulting each other with hobby-horses, but that is just how my brain works, I guess.

APD3: Madness to the Ride



Here is my latest contribution.
It sums up my thoughts on some of the more offensive behavior cyclists appear to exhibit.

Also, I'm not sure if she is wearing a helmet or a loaf of bread.
From now on, I draw on my nights were I don't work out and go shopping.

[edit] I make it a policy to not edit comics after they are posted, but I felt very strongly about a particular detail of the language, that I had to change it. I also took the opportunity to tweak her leg ever so slightly. the former is very important to the theme of the comic. The later just bugged me a bit.

APD2: Cyclists Anonymous


Well, here is the start of the first sub-arc of the comic. I'm not sure if it is all that funny, but I want to set the tone. This is a bit of me ranting, but that is the purpose of the comic, I guess.

Introducing: A Purposeful Derailment



Here is my new comic. It will contain bad puns, bizarre viewpoints, and geographic ambiguity. I must warn you it will also contain discussions on religion, addiction, mental health, and cultural norms.

This comic is my attempt at breaking certain molds while still being something worth reading. The only way I now how to do that is to be myself. Let's see how this goes. This might last 100 strips or so.

Sneak Peak: Purposeful Derailment

So, here is the character art I have worked up for my upcoming comic.

I will not be continuing with EOS for the near future. The reason is that, EOS evolved into a very specific story with some very specific points. EOS was always going to be a slightly snarky metaphor on life. Also, it has a very long story to resolve it, and I am not ready to tackle it at the moment.

What I will be doing with my next comic will be less of a metaphor and more of an assult on life. I will be tackling issues I never would have dreamed of discussing in EOS, mainly faith and my place int he world. I'm not going to pull any punches in this one because I decided that I can't let myself hold back if I want to be successful. This is not to say, I will not write silly fun story lines, but this one just has to feel real. I am not sure where this will end up, but I have enough now to hit the ground and go. It's the only thing I know. Strangly, my goal is to be more cartoony in my images, but less fanciful overall.

I can tell you the basic premise is being honest with yourself, and following what you love.



So, may I introduce Jean and Gloria. The bio information is a bit blury, but you can deal with it. I need to get to bed. I have a real job these days. Coming up "The Purposeful Derailment."
