Curses!

Found this gem while searching through sketches. I think the quote was from a real exchange at a comic con, but I have no idea where or when. This didn’t make the cut for Volume 4, but I’ll share ...

Back to Work

Someone sent me a note on the Underburbs DA gallery, and I must have some kind of runner’s high from finishing Volume 4 because I agreed to do a quick commission.

Volume 4 Complete

Drawn, scanned, compiled, resized, remastered, cleaned, commented, proofread, ALL OF IT. I should get a big box of ‘em by August 1.

Final Stretch

I’m throwing the Earlyburbs portion of Volume 4 together. If you’ve never read any of the Underburbs trade paperbacks, that’s my term for the sketches. If all goes well, I’ll be sending this t...

Can’t get enough of these two! Volume 4 is almost done, I just need to scan the old sketches. Sadly, all the concept art for issue 15 seems to be missing due to my lack of basic organizational skill...

Teaser

While designing the inside cover, I thought that this version of the background with the extended sky made a good poster. So here it is. Look for it on social media!

It’s a Living

Winifred is such a high roller on the business world that she has her own briefcase polisher. This will be the intro page to Volume 4. I’m going to miss Office Angela and Winifred when this is done.

Even though A Day at Deady’s is in the can, I’m still burning the midnight oil making the bonus features. In order for the pagination to match, there needs to be filler pages between each issue. I...

I hope you enjoyed “A Night at the Death Cycle” over the last two weeks. I’m happy to say that I got through thinking all TWENTY-TWO pages of “A Day at Deady’s.” I still have to shade, sca...

Death Cycle, bonus

Yes, in Volume Three, I provided bonus content for my bonus content. But I suppose if I didn't think people wanted to see my rough sketches, then I never would have started this Patreon account. I hop...

Aww, wasn't this a sweet little story? The throwaway gag about confusing multiple meanings of the word "club" comes back around to a touching (IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF) commentary about friendship. If th...

So many lessons! Even Val Bloodrose, the hottest guy in Underborough High, puts on a literal false front due to his own insecurity. But even a creep like him can learn who his true friends are from an...

Demonique trying way too hard to be sexy in panel 2 almost throws Val off his mesmerizing game. Also, it's weird that his widow's peak is shaded so flat, isn't it? Hmmm...

Underboroughan vampires don't need to adhere to "classic" vampire rules. Hey, if they can wander around in monster world daylight, then why should their sense of etiquette be biological? Also, Demoniq...
