Maybe Overdid It

The Patreon preview for this week’s strip was about the various ways in which the photocopier is humanized, such as barf noises.

On Sunday, July 6th I’m going to be in Vancouver for Comix & Stories, a one day indie comics festival. Come say hi and pick up some books!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Trash the Stampede is Employee of the Week, and can be found on the internet at The Word Eater. Patreon is also a predictable source of income, which helps calm the increasingly rough waters of freelancing, so I very much appreciate the people who support me on it!

Next Week: Maybe B.L. Zebub won’t notice? Read it early, and with author commentary, on Patreon!

Overheated

This week’s Patreon preview is about the Looney Tunes’ influence on my art. If you’re familiar with the Looney Tunes, you’ll know which part of this strip I’m talking about.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by Red Claw Gaming for Free RPG Day this past weekend! It was super busy, and I had a great time telling people about my tabletop RPGs and comics. I’ve got a few more shows coming up, including Comix & Stories in Vancouver on July 6th, and a night market in Edmonton on July 18th!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Leonardo is Employee of the Week! They supported the creation of Hockeypocalypse: Slashers, and helped make that book possible! Which is good, because Hockeypocalypse continues to be my best seller at conventions like the aforementioned ones.  You can also help me out for as little as $1 a month, because that really adds up when enough people get involved.

Our Helen?

I’ve returned from Calgary Expo 2025, and I’d like to thank everyone who stopped by my booth and made it an incredible weekend. Nearly every title I had with me was sold out or nearly sold out, and I had four days of great conversations with interesting folks!

This week’s Patreon preview post was about a common cartooning tip and how it helps utilize the reader’s imagination to fill in blanks.

“I’m Helen. Hello.”

The Patreon preview for this strip was about using action techniques for comedic emphasis! I should write more about that, because I think it’s a really interesting topic.

Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo is April 24-27, and I will once again be there, now in the remodeled BMO Centre. If you’re in town, stop by and check out some great books!

Lucky/Unlucky

Thanks to everyone who stopped by my table to chat at the Art Gallery of Alberta Comic & Zine & Book Fair! Hello and welcome to those of you checking out the site as a result. I presume there’s a bunch of you, because Hell, Inc. was definitely the title that got the most interest over the weekend. Special shoutout to the first person I talked to after the doors opened, who was a regular reader!

The Patreon preview for this strip was about how I have to draw the character acting when most of the characters don’t have pupils.

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Sebastian is Employee of the Week, and you can, too! It’s how I have predictable money, which is both Cool and Good because we live in capitalist hell-world. If everyone who read the comic in a month chipped in $1, I’d be able to turn down most freelance work and focus on doing Hell, Inc. stuff and my own graphic novels!

You can help Hell, Inc. for free by voting for it on Top Webcomics, which has been a great way to draw in new readers. Click the banner below to vote daily!

Next Week: Helen barges in with an important update. Read it early on Patreon!

So Sweet, But So Dumb

If you’re in Edmonton, come to the Art Gallery of Alberta’s Comic, ‘Zine, and Book Fair this weekend (April 12-13)! Admission is free, and I’ll be there selling books and talking to folks. Come say hi!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Barrie Deatcher is Employee of the Week, which means they are one of the folks helping support Hell, Inc. and my other non-freelance art endeavours! For example, I want to draw another wrestling comic.  Patreon can make that possible! Even $1 goes a long way, and adds up pretty fast when enough readers show their support.

You can also support Hell, Inc. for free by telling your friends about it, because that is infinitely better than any promotion I can do. Also voting on Top Webcomics by clicking the banner below is very helpful!

Next Week: Luck and love. Read it early on Patreon!

New Rude Hand Gestures

The Patreon preview for this strip was about how my imagination lends itself toward moving images, and how that occasionally clashes with working in a static medium.

In other news, I’ll be at the Art Gallery of Alberta’s 4th Annual Comic & ‘Zine & Book Fair on April 12-13! It’s free to attend, and is an absolute blast. If you’re in Edmonton, you should check it out!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Cindy Gauthier is Employee of the Week, and you can read her comic on Webtoon! It’s called Posthumous, and is a comic about two friends (who are cool, weird cyborg-things) exploring space and how the things that are in space are often terrifying.

Patreon! It’s a predictable income that I would like to be bigger so I can do less freelance and more stuff that I want to do! You get early access to Hell, Inc. strips, new comics like Dropkicks & Dragons, my new ttrpg Big Robots, Big Feelings, and more!

Next Week: Doug remains a dumb dummy. Read it early on Patreon!

The System Works (for Steve)

The Patreon preview for this strip is about how sometimes I draw way more than I need to, but I think that makes the comic better. Hopefully readers agree!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Brien is Employee of the Week, and as a patron, can currently read ahead on my next webcomic/graphic novel, Dropkicks & Dragons! Patrons are going to be able to read a fair amount ahead of the general public when that one launches, and it kicks ass, so please check it out!

Good Day

The Patreon preview for this strip was about the idea of a thing that is supposed to be fun causing you negative emotions. Doug provides a helpful perspective on the matter.

Helpful Crushing Pressure

The Patreon preview for this strip is about the spur-of-the-moment creation of the comic within the comic, which ended up being a lot of fun!

I have returned from beautiful (and much warmer than Alberta, currently) British Columbia, where I was filming a Warhammer army showcase with Play On Tabletop, which is one of the cooler opportunities I’ve had in a while. When that pops up, I’ll be sure to link it so you can see my rad ork army.
