083 – The greatest beard part 1

One of my resolutions for 2010 is to practice writing multi-page stories instead of the gag-a-week comics. This one marks the start of a 5-page story about a sentient beard. I know, it sounds pretty silly but you’ve got to start somewhere, right? I actually made a 1 page comic about Beard a while back, for a music compilation so

082 – Magic Perfume

Something a little different this week. A visual translation of the song ‘Magic Perfume’, by Charlyne Yi and from the movie ‘Paper Heart’. I found all three to be quirky, cute and enchanting so I had to make a comic about it. The watercolour effect didn’t work out very well but I’m tired of trying any further for the moment.

080 – buzz off

Part 2 of 3. Welcome to the new year! If you recall last week’s comic, I took refuge in the living room. Unfortunately, it borders on the kitchen and the fridge seems to mind me sleeping there. At the very last moment, I decided to add a third part to this little story. It’s more of an epilogue but it

079 – On a Winter’s Night

Part 1 of 3. Since I don’t have heating in my bedroom anymore and my electric heater is completely inadequate, I’ve taken to sleeping in my livingroom. Feels a bit like camping. I can’t keep it up though, my back is starting to protest. So I guess I’m looking for a better heater now. Ah, almost forgot: you might not

078 – Given names

The official story is that my parents couldn’t choose which name on their list was best, so they just took their top 8. But confusion and alcohol makes more sense to me 😛 In any case, I’ll always have an alias if I need one.

077 – Mars versus Venus

Vote for the comic and read the alternative ending! Last week I mentioned a mini comic that I was making for StripTurnhout (a Belgian comic book con). The little book turned out pretty well and I got some feedback from comic artists like Matt Madden and Jessica Abe (authors of ‘Drawing words and writing pictures’). It’s my first time getting

076 – Rainy days

Argh, too little time, too little sleep and I barely got the comic finished in time. The weather over here has been horrible lately. Umbrellas and wind don’t mix. EDIT 12/19/09: When I was making this comic, I was pretty sure it’s not the best joke around. But since a lot of these comics revolve around what I deal with

075 – Movember

Although I think beards are great, some moustaches tend to freak me out. It’s like they have a life of their own, just waiting for a chance to let loose and wreak havoc! And don’t get me started on the pornstache, that’s just plain awefull. Big fan of Magnum P.I. though, now that’s a reliable moustache! If you want to

074 – Boundaries

Every now and then I think that panel layout needs to be shaken around a little. If I get to antagonize my characters doing so, that’s a nice bonus.
