Heya! To keep it simple: I'm an old geek of a cartoonist who wants to give this whole webcomic deal a try while my hands and eyes are still in good working order. I've cone up with a whimsical story I think people will like. I'm starting at a weekly update pace, and looking to increase that as I find my rhythm for creating the strip. I'm hoping some of you fine folks will see fit to come along for the ride.

“History” is lighthearted adventure story that pokes a little fun at the standard Big Medieval Fantasy Epic. It's about two nice folks, an aging married couple, who used to be heroes and adventurers of a sort, but gave it all up long ago to be quiet homebodies. Then suddenly, sort of by accident, they find themselves swept up in the fight against a dark power that threatens a great kingdom. And there's nothing for them to do but cope with it. They're not as spry as they used to be, but they're still brave and clever and resourceful. And they're still crazy-honeymoon in love and deeply devoted to each other, even after decades together, which is always a help.

I think the story borders on what they call “cozy fantasy”, with all the epic stuff filtered through the viewpoint of these two unassuming characters, and how it all effects them. I hope you all will get to like them as much as I have in developing them and their story. Please check it out, and let me know what you think. Thanks and enjoy!



History - Start Here

So. I had an eye exam today; I'm way overdue for a new pair of glasses. And I was told in no uncertain terms that my hours hunched over my tablet drawing are putting considerable strain on my eyes. The fact is, I'm not very fare ahead on the strip, so I'm suspending it for a couple weeks. I'll get my new glasses, and take some vacay time from work (I have plenty built up) to get a few pages further ahead. I hate to disappoint anybody, but I am doing the comic mostly for my own satisfaction, and I have to set my own pace. I'm not done yet, honest! Just stuff getting in my way like always…

And here's me, taking another break from History for the holidays. I'm a tired old man with a day job, knocking this story out one page at a time. I need to find a way to do this at the level I want in less time than I've been taking. I need to rethink my work habits and figure some stuff out. Plus, I just want to do some personal stuff at the holidays. I'll be posting again come the first week of January. My apologies to anyone enjoying my efforts; I swear, I just want to give you my best. Geoffrey and Tixi abide, my word to you.
