Chapter 17 | Page 2b: The Ol’ Battle Ax

The #GuigarChristmasCountdown Rolls On

Every day until Christmas, I’m releasing a brand-new holiday single-panel gag — and this year’s batch has already included:

  • Overworked elves

  • Malfunctioning snowmen

  • Questionable reindeer behavior

  • And Santas who are absolutely phoning it in

Next week’s cartoons keep the absurdity rolling. If you’re counting down to Christmas with me… buckle up. We’re not even halfway to the weirdest ones. Catch them on BlueskyPatreon chat, or the Evil Inc Subreddit.

Panel 2
Rose (from inside the storage closet): “Fine. He loves chicken soup — extra crackers — and a tall lemonade.”

Panel 3
Rose: “Say… do you think you could open the door now? There’s not much air in here.”

Panel 4
Hailey: “If you look in the corner, you’ll see an old battle ax.”

Panel 5
Hailey: “There’s no battle ax in— Oh.”

Panel 6
SFX: KRAKK

Panel 7
Rose (calmly): “Thank you!”

Vericon: This weekend at Harvard University!




Did I say that my convention season was going to be kicked off in New York? HA! Lies! All lies!

It turns out that the new start of the convention season is going to be at Harvard University this weekend, when I make an appearance at Vericon. I’ll be out there Saturday talking webcomics with my Halfpixel pal Kris Straub. I’ll have copies of all three Evil Inc Annual Reports as well as copies of the How To Make Webcomics book for sale.

We’ll be in Room 113 at Sever Hall (pictured above) on Saturday from 1:30 to 3 p.m. Book sales and signings directly thereafter in Room 201 until 4:30 p.m..

After Vericon, I’ll be appearing at New York Comic Con Feb. 6-8 and then Katsucon (Wash., D.C.) on Feb. 13-15.
