To start my new robot comic, I made a three-part introduction.

Where the Paths Cross
October 20, 2007 - posted in work in progress
So there’s the animated Work In Progress, and the comic strip that stems from it. Both take place in the same fictional world of robots. The short is more broad and doesn’t revolve around any specific character. The 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

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 we got 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 me.
Non-Animated WIP – Sneak Peek!
October 10, 2007 - posted in 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 thing will launch full-steam on its own Web site. Stay tuned!
Test 1: “At the End of the Day”
Test 2: “Superbot!”
