Hi everybody— I’m a cartoonist who makes graphic novels about dead people, nerds, and dead nerds.

I enjoy unpopular pastimes such as font design, printmaking, yelling back at crows, being gay, and having children.

I once rescued a Pusheen from the mean streets of Portland.

A Pusheen the cat stuffy lying sodden beside a pile of leaf litter on the autumn sidewalk, staring up at the grey skies

Nothing much outside the Northwest, but I’ll be redoing my online store soon and should be back on the con circuit next book release. :)

This year’s addition to my con offerings: tiny colorful linocut prints.

“That one goofy cocktail waitress who was briefly a love interest for the doctor but then started dating the comic relief’s comic relief; major character”

Some friends I will have in Juneau this weekend thanks to the kind folks at saturnstickers.com, it is delightful to use local vendors to produce high key nonsense

Three stickers: a lemon saying SUCK IT, a skeleton in a colorful blanket labeled GRUMPY, and a Greek vase with a butt and text NICE. OP’s hand giving a thumbs up.

My five year old has discovered my giant omnibus of New Yorker cartoons and insists I explain the jokes to her, which is like doing a round of Expert Panel with @davidmalki.com but with an aggressive countdown timer and a bucket of Nickelodeon slime wobbling over my head

If only we were going to be together somewhere with birds soon!!!

Sure it’s great to have resources that delineate the unique calls and songs various birds make in the wild, but what’s still lacking is a formal classification of the embarrassingly specific sound effects I make in response to spotting them

I'm going to be at the library in Willamina, OR today for Free Comic Book Day from 12-4!

I'll have my new risograph minicomic CEMETERY + a table of supplies so you can make your own minicomic/zine with just one piece of paper, and showing off how I make my lil hand-carved stamp art/linocut prints.
