Robot Comic Introduction, part 1 of 3
Oct 26, 2007 — filed under: work in progress
To start my new robot comic, I made a 3-part introduction, which I will post here one chapter at a time. (don’t worry– the comics themselves are not this long and wordy)
Check back on Halloween for the official launch!

Where the Paths Cross
Oct 20, 2007 — filed under: work in progress
It’s hard to explain the relationship between the animated Work In Progress, and the non-animated comic strip that goes with it. Both take place in the same fictional world of robots. The short is more broad and doesn’t revolve around any specific robot, where the comic strip has several regular characters.
But there is at least one moment when the strip and the short cross paths. This still from the comic strip depicts some robots coming across a skeleton under a berry bush. What they have stumbled on is the aftermath of one of the scenes from the short.
That seems to be the only moment where the two stories overlap so far. That’s all I know.
Ed Emberley’s Fingerprint Drawings
Oct 19, 2007 — filed under: sundries, work in progress
My mom recently retired from many years of teaching elementary school. She collected hundreds of childrens’ books over the years, which she has now passed on to her grandchildren. Among the books in one of 3 huge boxes we received was Ed Emberley’s “Great Thumbprint Drawing Book.” I came across it the other day and looked through it for the first time since maybe 3rd grade.
It seems to have been, for better or worse, a terribly strong subconscious influence on some recent work of mine.
Non-Animated WIP - Sneak Peek!
Oct 10, 2007 — filed under: work in progress
Here are a couple sneak peeks at some of the non-animated portion of the Mystery Work in Progress. Obviously, it’s a comic strip sort of thing. I don’t know where it’s going, but I’m going to keep making it for a while and see what happens.
Soon this little experiment will launch full-steam on its own Web site. Stay tuned!
Test 1: “At the End of the Day”
Test 2: “Superbot!”
