Let’s ruin a beautiful moment.
Call it karma for Chris setting Lizzy on fire in the “Frat Party” storyline. And honestly, if this ever happened to you, do tell!

I can honestly say that this is one of my favorite comics of mine. As opposed to the other comics, this one’s not that funny at all but rather endearing and sincere.
Drawing — or painting, in this case — the snow was a fun and interesting touch to the black negative space, and the minimal dialogue allowed more attention and focus to the actual art. In the last panel, I wanted to convey an environmental change (ie, the wind blowing the snow into a specific direction; pathetic fallacies and all), but I’m not sure if I did it right. Overall, though, I am deeply satisfied with this certain strip.
Now that this particular storyline is nearly complete and I am a busy person (despite my love of watching Cartoon Network for several consecutive hours and logging onto MySpace every 5 minutes), I’m going to reduce the number of new comics from everyday to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I promise you, though, the art and writing will be of the utmost calibre… and in two weeks, the new storyline “Love Is In The Air” will premiere!
Other news: Pat Doran’s “The Way Life Should Be” is back with its final, DI-run comics! And if that’s not cool enough, he officially launched his site! Check out the link!
Other other news: The Wings Gallery show went very well! You can check out some pictures of the night on my Flickr page!
Chris’ character, since the beginning, has been pretty naive, passive, and spineless. In this comic, I wanted to give him a backbone, which proves that he has grown as a character.
Lizzy’s dance movements was challenging to draw, so I modelled her body structure after a few photographs of people dancing. How I love Flickr.
The “Rules of Attraction” storyline is complete, making it the longest story arc I have ever written/drawn. After talking to Suz, I’ve decided to release one comic a day (Monday through Friday), which will give me a buffer-zone to draw up some new stuff. I guess you’ll just have to wait to see the conclusion… suspense, and all. Keep tuned in, however! There’s gonna be some changes — content-wise — to the site!
And keep commenting!
I have to tell you, it’s not always easy creating ideas for a comic and then drawing them…
Go Go Power Rangers!All the roommates are featured in this comic — Aaron, Mike, Indie Rawk Jeffro, Kyle the Duck, ZCC, and Chris.
This was published on the first Friday before the 2005 Fall Semester began, and I can assure you all the incoming students went out and partied that night.Oh freshmen…
Artistically speaking, I enjoyed drawing the leaves’ shadows on Nigel and Randy.
Don’t you find those obligatory student introductions on the first day of class so interesting? Personally, I like making up stories.This is also one of the few times Duder has not appeared with his harem.
The Sausage-Fest crew gains a 6th roommate, ZCC. In later comics, however, ZCC’s face appears on the toaster; I love drawing his face, namely stippling in his beard.
And so ends year 2.
