Me and the boys on a Thursday

I’m back!!! Absolutely hectic last 3-4 weeks for me. I had illustration jobs with the Atlanta Falcons and Thursday Night Football, before that I was packing a metric ton of orders f...

They’re better off

Sometimes I have a chuckle to myself when I include a somewhat less common dinosaur (in this case a Carnotaurus) in a comic. Like how many times has this dinosaur appeared in anything ...

Long term goals

9/5/25

I am really excited about how this one came out lol. It hits all the marks of things I like to include in my comics (as you all well know by now) but I really am happy with the final p...

Favorite flavor

9/3/25

Surprisingly tricky one to draw for a simple concept, but it was important to me to sell the backdrop as an ice cream shop with limited hints (ie a sign in the back with an ice cream c...

That’s actually a lot better

Hello beetle gang. I’m currently drawing a bunch of comics to backlog over the next couple weeks. Very excited to say I have been hired to work on two football season related project...

Time for some payback

8/28/25

I like to occasionally lean into the Far Side comparisons when I come up with ideas involving cows. Also I have to say when I’m self reflecting on my work it really is kind of crazy...

Lots of exciting happenings on the beetle front this past week. Sales were phenomenal for the restock of the Flyer, and I’m still holding onto about a hundred copies! If yo...

Oldest trick in the book

8/20/25

This was one of those ideas that seemed so simple on paper but was an absolute menace to actually render. I struggled a bit with the thumbnail process in the beginning, trying to achi...

Wavy

8/19/25

Do you guys still like really niche science humor? Tricky one to color since there’s a lot going on in each panel, and I’m not sure how I feel about the general layout. But the ...

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT FOR BEETLE NATION

He’s gonna have to make a story up for his friends.

This idea came about when I was fishing with my friends the other day, we laughed about it and I thought it would make a go...

Game winning block

I had this one sitting in my notes for a while but was putting it off because it contains my biggest phobia when drawing comics…… a large crowd of people lol. I talk about this at...

They were way off

8/13/25

Ok this is a very niche reference so I’m praying I have some Future is Wild fans in chat. For everyone out of the loop, the Future is Wild is a real television program which aired i...

I must be tripping

8/11/25

Funny story I think I drew this two weeks ago and forgot to post it to patreon. Whoops! Anyway, I’m continuing to explore using different, brighter colors. I’ve been routinely pos...

Ten arms still fumbled

8/8/25

Another format which I always seems to gravitate towards is the date-gone-wrong in a restaurant atmosphere. Usually featuring someone on a date with an inanimate object or some grotesq...

They always show up at a bad time

8/7/25

Had a good time coloring this one. I’m working through some older ideas while I’m writing and plotting out the first chapters of a NEW long comic which I’ve been turning over in ...

Simple Pilates for beginners

I’m on my health grind recently and this is how it feels watching YouTube for at home workouts. Thankfully I am now able to phase through matter and I’m starting to get some tone i...

A tale of two kitties

8/2/25

Some old beetle lore but I used to work at a True Value hardware store in Boston for a short stint probably back in 2013 ish. I remember on rare occasion helping customers find an asso...

Important piece of human evolution

8/1/25

Happy Friday beetle gang!! I’m really happy with how this piece came out. Simple concept, fun to draw, and has a lot of the visual hallmarks I love to include in my comics, like a ca...

Worth it

7/31/25

Is this the first comic I’ve made about monkeys hijacking a banana truck? No. Will it be the last? Also no.

With a joke that’s really simple and visually interesting without...

Holy chopped

7/30/25

Dude let me tell you, gym equipment is not meant to be drawn. I thought the elliptical was going to be the hardest part of this one but the overhead press nearly broke me. Lol general...

ZombieHeist: in theaters this Nevtember

7/29/25

I’ve been really trying to allow myself to see through more ambitious or unusual ideas just to really explore, and this was one of them. It’s a lot of information to convey in thr...

Can a fella get his fruity drink on?

7/24/25

This joke started off with just the concept of a full size umbrella being used in a giant drink, nothing especially creative or spectacular. But I wanted to present it in a way which ...

Go, girl

7/23/25

I’ve noticed a new thing I like to do, which is to input a horrifying grotesque alien into a slice of life situation. I’m not exactly sure what it means but maybe it’s because s...

OHHHHH!!!!!

7/21/25

I might have been a little ambitious trying to do the background as a snowy landscape but it’s just how I visualized it in my head. Was kind of fun to try something new with the bac...

Chickem nugt

7/18/25

This idea was originally going to feature two generic cop characters, but I figured for some added spice I’d make them strongly resemble Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman in Se7en (one o...

He’s busy

7/16/25

Man I wrote out a whole thing with a bunch of exciting news to share, BUT I remembered I am an adult with normal emotional regulation so I have to wait just a bit longer to divulge ev...

He’s not what he used to be

7/8/25

This was a challenging one in particular for the subtlety of the poses and gestures of the people, especially mother and son in the final panel. Sometimes it’s the most mundane pose,...

Let a real Protozoa love u

7/7/25

Surprisingly difficult to draw an amoeba wearing clothes. They look pretty swaggy though. Microbial drip

The peanuts went kind of stale but otherwise it was well preserved

7/6/25

Fun one to color. Hoping to backlog a handful more in the next few days since I’ll be vacationing with my family for a long weekend on Thursday. Love you!
