Yesterday marked the 4 year anniversary of this comic, 4 years… It doesn’t seem that long in some ways but in other ways it seems like a lifetime ago. The events that lead up to me starting this comic, my departure from the Transplant Comics webcomic collective seems like a lot longer than 4 years ago.
4 years and my style has gone through some interesting changes. When I started this comic it was all done by hand (except the lettering) now it it has moved to completely digital. The whole of my style has evolved, and I think it has evolved for the better each stage was a natural progression to where I am now. And while I know I will continue to improve I am pretty happy with my current style.
Over the course of these 4 years my life has seen many changes some good, some bad, and some downright awful, but through it all I continued this comic. Some of those changes made it into the comic, though a lot of them were “hidden” in metaphor. Others are just blatantly stated, and still others are just to close and raw to deal with.
In the course of these 4 years I have not become a hugely famous web cartoonist, I have a small dedicated audience. That gives me encouragement and lets me know that I am not just talking to myself when I do this. They also rallied behind me to raise the money for a new Wacom Intous 4 tablet for me, because my readers are full of win.
Thanks to all the folks who have kept me going through these 4 years and I hope to continue to bring you strange comics for years to come.
