Intermission — April 23 — Bigfoot Problems

There are some Bigfoot problems that hit harder than others — and for certain legendary figures, male pattern baldness anxiety isn’t just about looks… it’s about legacy. Today’s comic imagines what happens when one very famous cryptid starts wondering if his myth might not survive a receding hairline.


What I’m Watching: Invincible, JJK, and the Great Animation Trade-Off

I’ve been watching Invincible with my sons, and I’ve got… thoughts.

First off: the story? Very, very good. Genuinely compelling stuff — even though the violence and gore is way past my personal comfort range. I'm not super comfortable with one character shooting another. The stuff that happens on a median-level episode of Invincible is a real challenge for me.

As someone who does NSFW comics, I'm constantly amazed at how perfectly acceptable Invincible is... yet an animated series based on Phil Foglio's XXXenophile would have people losing their ever-loving minds.

Further, it's a little disappointing to go from watching Jujutsu Kaisen (which we're also following at the moment) to watching Invincible.

JJK features jaw-dropping visuals and animation that constantly raises the bar episode after episode. It's phenomenal.

On the other side of the spectrum, Invincible clearly put all of its budget into getting celebrity voice talent. Some of them are very good.

I just wish a few of those Amazon dollars had been spent on the animation. Some of the scenes are pretty clearly PNGs that get enlarged to show an object moving through space, and it's a goddamned embarrassment.

But the story itself is very, very good.

Halloween Special!

This is my favorite time of year. The weather is perfect, the kids are back in school and my favorite holiday, Halloween, is just around the corner. So I’m launching a new offer — a Halloween Special —to entice some of you to support my cartooning through Patreon (and reward those of you who already are). If you sign up to back my Patreon campaign at the $5/month (or higher) in October, you’ll get a special 80-page Halloween comics collection along with all of your other rewards. And that’s good for my current $1 backers who increase their pledge, too! Support my comics on Patreon today! This gargantuan special issue contains some of my best Halloween-related comics from an unlucky 13 years of cartooning. You’ll see the spooky best of Evil Inc as well as the annual Halloween storylines from Greystone Inn and a couple very creepy stories from the Eisner-award-nominated Phables. If you loved the sexy, sassy Real Housewives of Transylvania, they’re represented in two fierce storylines.Of course, if you’d rather not sign up for Patreon, you can still get your meat-hooks into this plus-sized spooktacular.
