I’m a Little Sad

Some of you might know already, but my backpack was stolen last Thursday, along with notebooks, books, mp3 player, calculator, pens, pencils, and yes, my drawings. So that’s why I couldn’t post either of the epic drawings I was working on last week. Because they were in the backpack. And I couldn’t post a substitute strip. Because those were on my zip drive. In my backpack. I felt bad about not being able to post for Thursday or Saturday, but since I’m studying my ass off for 3 big exams I have coming up in a few days (great way to spend a spring break, trust me) I just went through some old scans. I had at least decided on a whim to back up my zip drive on my computer a few months ago; so here you are.

I drew this drawing for my Dungeons and Dragons group from a few years back. I had actually never played the game before (surprising, huh?) and I have to admit; it’s really fun. Probably had to do with the fact that none of us were the stereotypic geeks that you’ve heard about, or seen here and here, or described here. I had tons of sketches throughout the game, but they were all goofy, and so I wanted to draw something serious. I started with the dwarf’s eyebrows, and the end result is above. I’m the elf in the middle. His name is Remy… Still cartoony, but a step in the right direction, I would say. Check back either next Wednesday or next Tuesday (if I’m not wiped out by my third exam) for a continuation of our previous comics.

Sorry About the Delay

Okay, so as you all hopefully know by now, T.J. got his backpack stolen by forces unknown, thus derailing our plans to take over the wor-I mean, to post funny webcomics full of high moral fiber, sugar, cream, and other innocent-like things…yeah. Anyway, I know this sketch isn’t actually much of anything except a pathetic excuse for a notice that we’re still alive and still intending to continue along our merry way, but you have to admit, that dwarf is pretty damn sexy.

Okay, but seriously, all other things being sane and equal in me and T.J.’s lives (they never are, hence why we’re funny I guess, but you guys can live with the white lie) we’ll be back up and running by next week with our first official story arc and the introduction of several new characters including *gasp* a GIRL. In fact, TWO GIRLS.

…*dead silence ensues*

Okay, fine, so I’m doing what every comic since Sinfest, Penny Arcade, and CAD has done, but who am I to fly in the face of tradition? Not to mention this is a comic strip about COLLEGE, which does involve a fair amount of dealings with the fairer sex in my opinion. Of course, that could do a lot with the fact the school I go to is about 60% female, but if you don’t have any romance in college, you’re missing out.

Wait…that includes me, dammit.

In any case, enjoy the sketch in the meantime, sorry for the wait. Dock our tip if you’d like, but please, enjoy the comic. It’s on us, honestly.
