Location: The Office

Performance Reviews

Thanks to everyone who came to my book launch at Audreys Books last week! It was a great event, and I had a blast. The Patreon preview for this post was telling people to come to said event, and also talked about the way the office is set up.

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!

You can also help out Hell, Inc. for free by clicking the banner below to vote on Top Webcomics, which you can do daily! It helps make the comic more visible to webcomic readers!

Next Week: The staff react to the news of performance reviews. Read it early on Patreon!

Hear Ye, Hear Ye

This week’s Patreon post is about how I didn’t design the office with addressing everyone in mind, and how I have to work around that.

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!

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!

Potential Jobs

The Patreon preview for this strip is about coming up with potential job titles for Sara to claim. Also, I’m writing this post from a hotel room in Toronto after the Toronto Comic Art Festival. I’m exhausted, but it was a great weekend of meeting new and existing readers, and I want to welcome all of you who have made your way to the comic after meeting me at the show!

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.

Passive Genius

The Patreon preview for this week’s strip is about learning to pace myself, art-wise, and how that is good. It could have been about how it’s been almost 400 strips since Bridget’s purse as made an appearance, but that just occurred to me right now.
