So Weird

The Patreon preview for this strip was about finally naming Natasha, the demon in the red outfit.

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Ben Hamlin, host of Syndicated with Lesley and Ben (among other casted pods), is Employee of the Week, and I’ve made yet another guest appearance! This time, we talked about Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury! We talk about the Prologue, which is an insane rarity – a first episode that is also the best episode of the series. You also get to hear me say some absurd Gundam character names, which I could have done for MUCH longer. You can also hear me talk about a bunch of other shows, like Better Call Saul, Newsradio, Workaholics, and Ugly Americans!

Next Week: Sara continues to try to figure out what her job is, with limited success. Read it early on Patreon!

The Most Interesting Thing

The Patreon preview for this comic is about workflow, and when I know I’ve gotten comfortable after working on other projects for a long time.

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Robbie Dorman is Employee of the Week! He is co-host of The Simpsons Show, the only podcast about The Simpsons, and also the only podcast about The Simpsons that I have done a guest spot on. You should also check out his website to learn about his new novel releases. He writes that good good scary shit. Indie artists need your support now more than ever, so check out his stuff!

Next Week: Sara doesn’t understand office chatter. Read it early on Patreon!

Fire Drill

This week’s Patreon preview is about when to condense an idea, and also how long I’ve been sitting on a joke about a fire drill in Hell.

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: Bridget and Doug meet up in the Real Break Room. Read it early on Patreon!

Paper Towels

Next week’s Hell, Inc. comic is number FOUR HUNDRED. WILD. The patreon preview for this strip is mostly me complaining about the current hassles of trying to figure out if I can still mail books to the US and Europe.

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.  You can also help me out for as little as $1 a month, because that really adds up when enough people get involved.

Buck Passing

The Patreon preview for this strip is about my writing process, which doesn’t involve saving drafts, so I don’t remember all of the previous attempts to get to this punchline.

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Robbie Dorman is Employee of the Week! He is co-host of The Simpsons Show, the only podcast about The Simpsons, and also the only podcast about The Simpsons that I have done a guest spot on.

Next Week: How is Helen’s presentation going? Great, right? Read it early on Patreon!

Very Normal Usage

The Patreon preview for this strip is about how colour choices effect readability! Patrons at any level can read it.

If you’re in Edmonton, I’ll be selling Hell, Inc. books (and all my other books) at the Cabinet of Curiosities Night Market on Friday, July 18th. Come on out!

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!

Next Week: B.L. Zebub is not amused. Read it early, and with author commentary, on Patreon!

So Close…

It was very fun to draw B.L. Zebub sliding around the corner like an anime character. I just got off the plane returning from Vancouver less than 90 minutes ago. I’m very tired. Thanks to those of you I met at Comix & Stories that have found your way to the comic! Welcome!

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Caitlin is Employee of the Week! Hurray! You, too, can be Employee of the Week, by supporting my art on Patreon! Go do that.

Doug’s New “Office”

It’s a holiday in Canada, but the demons of Hell, Inc. are still at the office… playing Satanic Baseball Simulator instead of working. I too am at “the office,” because cartoonists don’t get days off. The Patreon preview for this strip was about realizing there were still parts of the office that I hadn’t drawn yet!

Consensus

It’s always good to have things that everyone can agree on. Strange that it’s usually “the guy in charge stinks.” Wonder why that is… The process post (available to patrons at any level) for this strip is about the level of detail needed in the worldbuilding to support Satanic Baseball Simulator.

EMPLOYEE OF THE WEEK:

Caitlin is Employee of the Week, conveniently timed for her birthday! Hurray! Patrons 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!

Next Week: The simulating BEGINS. Imagine that with the Mortal Kombat voice. Read it early, and with author commentary, on Patreon!

 

A Glimpse of Alternate Universes

The Patreon preview for this strip is about the problems that occasionally arise with having months between drawing strips of the same comic. Sometimes that muscle memory isn’t quite as good as you’d like it to be, much like regular memory.

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, my new ttrpg Big Robots, Big Feelings, and more!

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: Bridget is extremely helpful, she thinks. Read it early on Patreon!
