We made a fun comic for all ages. Check it out if you love comics like Calvin and Hobbes, Axe Cop, or Bone!

Doing some more work on the Pistol Shrimp script today.

Never waste a character! If you have a character who only appears in one or two scenes, that’s no excuse to make them boring. Give them personality! How do they talk? What are they interested in? Do they have a sense of style? It doesn’t take much and it adds a ton!

Impressed with the confidence of the guy next to me in the work lunchroom to watch a show at full volume on his phone with no headphones.

My posts may not be as popular on Bluesky, but at least I’m not inundated with unwanted content 24/7. Just games, art, and comics.

Read good stories so you know what to strive for. Read bad stories so you know you’re allowed to write your own.

WE ARE NOW LIVE AND LAUNCHING A STRONGER, MORE LOVING WORLD!

Laugh Riot #1 is a 24-page comic book hat can only be described as Looney Tunes versus 1984. It's an anti-fascist thrill ride of japes, play, and good old fashioned ultra-violence!

It’s like Calvin and Hobbes if it were deranged.

Haven’t been on here in a while, but I definitely need to be away from Twitter for a minute. 😭

It’s the final 48 hours for the Pistol Shrimp #1-3 Kickstarter. I don’t plan to enable late pledges for inventory count purposes, so time is running out on some cool rewards!

Charlie McFarland @charliemcfarland.bsky.social · Mar 3

Only $800 away from our first stretch goal! Usually the last three days are a big boost for a campaign, so we might be able to pull this off!
