She Came Here To Chew Bubblegum & Kick Ass, & She's All Out of Bubble Gum

This is a reference to the John Carpenter movie "They Live". Sorry I couldn't fit in a 20 minuet long fight scene.

Nice Inked Drawings

Sorry I couldn't get a comic out, but I just moved back to New York. So I've been busy moving into my apartment and looking for work. So here's your consolation prize!

Who Want's a GIF?

If you look closely, you can see that Ro is playing the bass line to "She's Lost Control" by Joy Division.

OOO, GIFED!

This is the first time making a gif, so I hope it works.

So, What ever Happened to Shiela & Mindy?

Seriously, what is more fun than you and your friend going through a box of records. This is my first time inking with Illustrator, and I'd like to give thanks to my friend Ryan for giving me some pointers on an impossibly confusing program. But in all seriousness, why can't I save an Illustrator project as a JPEG?

Uh Oh, Mark's In Trouble

Trying something new this week. I wanted to see how you guys reacted if I started inking the comics. Well Tell me what you think.

No Smoke For the Lazy

I think hipsters actually do cocaine. Eh, whatever.

Tricky Dealings With A Hipster

Good thing Shiela is good at spotting idiots, or else this would have never worked. Then again that guy doesn't work there. By the way I would strongly suggest getting Tago Mago by CAN, great album.

Art at the Cost of Art

I understand if you are doing that with a Montavoni, Andy Williams, or a Christmas record. But COME ON! Not the good ones.

Scenes From A Record Store

For those of you who are drummers, I highly suggest the work of Sly Dunbar. He played drums on Grace Jones' compass point trilogy and is half of Jamaica's most famous rhythm section along with bassist Robbie Shakespeare.

Ro Palmer's America

This is easily the most disjointed, incoherent, bablouge of a comic yet. First, for what's actually valid about Ro's argument is immediately offset by bad examples. Second, it's a comic about the 4th of July that has Hitler in it. To my defense, it does call him "the most evil man ever". And third, there's a direct parody of Chris Pausen's Precocious comic. Why? I'm a fan of the comic, I relate to Jacob, Ro was talking about freedom and I thought of the time Jacob got his revenge on the Super Villain Union. By the way Chrispy, if you want parody my comic, feel free to. I'm always open to that stuff.

Well There's A Thought

Shiela has an active imagination. She needs to escape to it time and again, like when she's in school or near her family.

Janice Whitman Has Never Heard of Rene Decarte

This is advise i keep getting, HOW THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSE TO USE IT!? Seriously, How do you stop thinking? Is that even possible? Isn't not thinking what idiots do? Can't you give me more specific instructions? On a side note, panel 4 is a reference to the movie Ricki-O The Story of Ricky. Thanks CinemaSnob!

Shiela in Flash

This is a short animation I did of Shiela in flash. This is an interesting milestone for me because I've been very resistant to flash and computer animation. I've finally warmed up to Flash, but that doesn't mean I'm turning my back on traditional animation. I'll use flash when I need it but I'm gonna keep traditional alive in everything I do in one way or another. Even if I just do it as a hobby or side project.
