These movies, more than anything, are marked by a lack of communication and incredible awkwardness I try desperately to avoid in my real life. OR Maybe this is why I mostly watch Hollywood action movies and police procedurals...

Cue the sap! Happy Anniversary, My Darling. OR It felt like it was time to be crazy personal and experimental.

Note: No comedy today, friends! But don't worry, it gets less sad! I promise!

I only wish I could say this was the first time I'd drawn a cat vomiting in my comic. OR Lael, are you ever gonna draw Tom Hiddleston?

You can't go wrong with dinner and a movie...unless it's a special showing of the Grave of the Fireflies, or something of that ilk...Nothing like crying on V Day!

Thanks for the brainstorm, Jess D.! 

Maybe I should have drawn the line a few months ago when I had a dream about kissing a web comic character...OR You are an adult, Lael, what if you just went to bed when you're supposed to? Ya know, exercise self control?

To read/find out more about the items I mention in my comic today: 

• Questionable Content web comic by Jeph Jacques
• Blankets by Craig Thompson
• The House on the Strand by Daphne Du Maurier

Oh, the Sherlock fan fic? Yeah, not telling you that one... Sorry!

Read Sam and Fuzzy by Sam Logan instead. Those archives will also suck you in...as will many other web comics! QC just has the distinction of being the first web comic that ever kept me up all night...

Happy Reading!

PS. In completely unrelated news, check out the art of Matt Muirhead. I was so floored last night at his work on display at Mobtown Theater. 

Good thing you can't get arrested for OD-ing on candy and chocolate covered peanuts...

Comic!

Anxiety Fun Times OR I think I've gotten better on bailing on everyone I care about, but this is Dr. A's take...OR What's with the hat, Lael?

Notes:

Thanks to Dr. A. for the idea and a design consult!

And wouldn't you know it? Right before I started drawing something snapped in my wrist! :-p Not having good luck lately with physically being able to draw! But, I enjoyed playing around and experimenting today!

And on Saturday I wore real shoes on a night out for the first time since early October! Progress! OR Lael, why did you draw me like Frylock? Sorry, it was an accident!

Comic!

In an effort to be noncontroversial I didn't draw the hilarious and stereotypical dichotomy between home boys and yuppie hikers all trying too hard...

Comic! Next week's comic will be posted on Monday instead of Sunday!

Having some fun!

A little fun to start the new year and to reacquaint myself with my tablet. This image is based on a photo taken of a friend and her sister in Halloween costumes. Hoping to get a bunch of writing done in the coming weeks, but enjoy some solid color for now!
