On the Subject of Divinity

“Here you are Mr. George.” The waitress placed a steaming coffee mug on the table.

Henson George looked up from his newspaper and gave her a polite nod with an approving smile. He folded ...

The Wise Wicca

First off, let me say this has to be my favorite stand-alone sketch of my characters that Daryl has made thus far. 

Second, meet Gam. She's Norman's grandmother and the leader of the Red...

Regarding the Disappearance of Martha Walsh

Martha Walsh sneezed.

Dust scattered from the row of books in front of her, floating and dancing in the air like clumpy, gray snowflakes. 

“Shit.” She said, adjusting her glass...

The Sword in the Stone

Concealed in the tall grass of the forest floor, a bush rabbit cleaned herself. The quiet hush of the foggy Irish morning crept slowly into the woodlands.

A subtle southern wind carried the f...

Cora

Cora is a character I've been DYING to introduce to this series. She's our lovable, lesbian pyromaniac and will be making her debut in Chapter 3 :)

Gamigin

Technically, this is my first personal sketch of Gamigin which is super strange for me. When Daryl and I would create my characters in his style, I had sketches of my own to show him as a base/exam...

I didn't have time to sketch anything new today, so I figured I'd still make a post with all of my own personal sketches of Norman and Cal from the past 2 years. I will be making two sketches for t...

Patron Pledge Issue

Hey everyone,

It has come to my attention that some Patrons have been editing their pledges up to $5 so they can read the current pages, then readjusting back down to $1 so they don't have to...

Corruption

Norman's character has been one of my favorite things to write because I always try to change him. He started off as this cocky, arrogant straight-ish, masc character, but eventually evolved into t...

Norman and Cal started out very differently when I first wrote out the beginnings of BKI. First, Cal used to be a werewolf, and Norman's name used to be Dom. They were going to fight crime as a sup...

Comic Update 004 - 8/2/19

Hey peeps!

For this comic update I wanted to open the floor for discussion, particularly the tiers system I current...

Caster, Norman from FGO by Solkorra

I love the Fate anime series and the accompanying game, Fate Grand Order. Mostly because I'm such an anime and history nerd. The fact that the series combines both makes my inner fanboy SQUEEEEE. 2019-07-19 17:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Brothers

It's funny, Cal and Bel have always been brothers in my mind since the moment I thought of the key antagonists to introduce into the BKI storyline. First, I created the dynamic between Norman and C...

Caliban the Demon

Cal's character is by far one of my favorite things I've ever written into existence. When I first started writing about him back in college, he started out as a werewolf. Over the years I rewrote ...

Comic Script 002 - Chapter 1, Page 11
