hey wow! hourly comic day! i made it just in time!!

...it's still 2025, right?

[ #hourlycomicday | #hourlycomics | #aimadraws | #bskyart ]
12 am: aima sits typing at the computer, a blank expression on her face. caption reads "Faffin' about online." 1 am: aima yanks the shower door open, hair full of shampoo suds, as she says "OH SHIT". captain reads: "Shower-- OH WAIT IT'S HOURLY COMIC DAY" 2 am: aima lays on her bed with her cats, looking at her phone. captain reads: "So you're going to bed now... /Right?/" 3 am: sundown appears and grabs the back of aima's head, faceplanting her into her pillow, sending the cats flying. caption reads: "I said you're GOING TO BED- /NOW./" 10 am: sundown is grabbing aima's hair, lifting it up from sleep now. sundown says "Wake up." aima says "Nuh...". caption reads: "Well, I would but there's--" 11 am: parker stands on the bed in all his stripey glory, holding his stuffed toy broom in his mouth with big eager eyes. caption reads: "PARKER!!" 12 pm: aima sits in silence at the breakfast table eating eggs and wearing headphones. speech bubbles filled with exclamation points surround her on both sides. caption reads: "Breakfast. Family talks Politics. I ignore them." 1 pm: aima still sits at the table, drawing in her sketchbook now. the speech bubbles are pointier now, and crowding in on aima more. caption reads: "Hourlies. Still ignoring family noises" 2 pm: aima holds up a sparkling quesadilla like link holds a new item in twilight princess, but with a non-plussed expression on her face. caption reads: "Also: Quesadilla✨" 3 pm: aima still sits at the table, annoyed as she tries to think of things to draw for hourlies. caption reads: "Bro, if you only work on hourlies all day, you're not gonna have anything interesting to draw today..." 4 pm: close up of aima's face, one eye covered by her glasses reflection as she looks contemplative. caption reads: "Though I guess... Maybe it's ok to not be interesting." 4:30 pm: aima dries off the steaming dishes that are freshly clean out of the dishwasher. caption reads: "After everything that happened last year..." 5 pm: aima plays with her cat luna with a wand toy, as luna rolls around on her back, arms in the air. caption reads: "Maybe it's ok to take it easy where you can." the next panel, labeled "March 11th", is drawn to look taped-in, replacing the slot where 6 pm would be. aima is surprised and worried as she sees her dad fall to his knees on the stairs, clutching his back in pain. caption reads: "After all, you never know when something could suddenly happen..." the next taped-in panel is labeled "April (xx)". notes are written in the empty space around the panel; a phone number for a doctor's office, a checked box on a medical form, and the paper is wrinkled and stained by a mug. a date is scrawled in the corner. the panel itself shows aima sitting on the side of her father's bed in silence, her face blank as she stares ahead into space while her haggard-looking dad sleeps. caption reads: "To throw you right back into the hell you thought you'd just crawled out of." the next taped-in panel is labeled "May or June???". the paper is even more wrinkled and smudged now, and scribble marks crowd in around the entire panel. more notes crowd in; the top of a shopping list, a to-do list with items checked off, a note scrawled that reads "CALL Dr. Xy, ask about-" the panel itself shows aima rubbing her father's back around the scar from his recent back surgery to help ease the pain from said surgery. the look on her face is serious as she contemplates the surgery scar. amongst all the chaos of the surrounding panel, the caption has to be circled so it can be identified, reading: "Sometimes it's all you can do to survive." at the very bottom of the page, aima sits cross-legged with her head in her hands, depressed and overworked. sundown looks worried and rubs her back, trying to comfort her. the two are surrounded by thick black scribbles, filling the rest of the negative space of the page. the caption reads: "Even if it means coping in whatever ways you can."

drawing a comic about how drawing comics is hard by drawing a separate, fake comic within the real comic

17h

#hourlycomicday #hourlycomicday2026 #hcd2026 #goopsarts
17h (5 pm). I sit at my drawing tablet. "Finally home to make hourlies. I should be done in a jiffy!" I think. The frame moves back, to show me drawing the previous panel. Then further, until a full comic is visible, showing scenes of me enjoying such activities as: slipping on a banana peel; driving off a cliff; and going to space. The final panel shows me faceplanting on the drawing tablet. This is way harder than I thought.

Been a minute. I participated in #hourlycomicsday! Here's the first several hourlies--I'll post the rest later, as I have to rush off to work!
A traditional autobiographical comic. I am portrayed as a skeletal lizard with a scythe tail. The first five panels have a thought bubble border, indicating that they're part of a dream. In the first panel, my character is sitting at a desk and smiling as she faces a Pikachu. She says, "Well, since I have to go back to college for another semester, I guess I'll take this class. This seems nice." In the second panel, the Pikachu drops a giant book onto my desk, eyes closed in a gentle smile as he says, "In THIS class you will read a 900 p age romance novel--" as my character, off-panel, says "Uh--" In the third panel, the Pikachu holds out a comically long piece of paper and points at it, saying, "Do MULTIPLE complex art projects, graded subjectively--" while I say, off-panel, "But this isn't--" In the fourth panel, the Pikachu's back is to the viewer as he holds his hands behind his back and looks over his shoulder with an unpleasant expression, saying, "And... for the final..." In the fifth panel, the Pikachu's ears become horns, his tail tip becomes a devil tail, he grows fangs, his eyes look stereotypically "evil," and he's holding a pitchfork as he's abruptly surrounded by flames as he shouts, "TELL EVERYONE ABOUT YOUR TRAUMA!! I KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!! MUWAHAHAHAHAHA!" as my character, horrified and crying, screams "NOOOO!!" The final panel has a normal border. I am lying in bed, with my long-haired cat Stanley sleeping behind my head, his tail wrapped around me. My eyes are wide as my alarm blares, "GOOOooOOOOD MOOR-ning! You have been in suspension for NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE..." The caption for the panel reads, "That was the most cartoonish trauma nightmare I've had." The page is labeled "hourly comics day 2/8/26" The first two panels are labeled 8 AM. The first shows me staring down at my phone, swirly-eyed, tapping at it repeatedly, the background dark and swirling around me, with the caption reading "Been addicted to yet another merge game lately." In the second panel, my expression is more tired and annoyed as I look down at my phone and tap it again with a "boop" sound effect. The caption reads, "Finally deleted it. Small victories." The next two panels are labeled 9 AM. In the first one, I am looking down at a cat food bowl and adding a powder to it, while Stanley watches with a "reowwww" of impatience. The caption reads "Fed the cats. Stanley needs supplements in his food, and he is very impatient." In the next panel, I am smiling as I write in my sketchbook. My phone sits next to me, with a square bubble near it showing my friend Felix, portrayed as a cartoon cat with square glasses, smiling awkwardly and holding up a plate of green cookies. The caption reads, "Sketching hourlies! Also VCing w/Felix cuz they were on." Two panels labeled 10 AM. In the first one, I am brushing Stanley with a slightly annoyed expression while holding a lickable treat for him, which he is licking while smiling. The caption reads "Brushing Stanley while giving him treats so he stays still. (He gets Upset if I don't do this.)" In the second panel I am drinking from a coffee mug with a snail design, a plate with toast and bacon sitting next to me. My phone also sits there, with a square bubble from it showing my friend Rowan, portrayed as an anthropomorphic wolf with an annoyed expression on his face as he holds up a Switch with swirly lines coming off of it, indicating that it is broken. The caption reads, "Eating breakfast while Rowan joins the call!" Two panels labeled 11 AM. The first panel shows me sitting in a recliner, reading from my phone and saying in confusion, "'...he ka-nurcked a pebble...' What?? Is that a real word??" The caption reads, "Reading 'The Creatures Time Forgot.' It's... interesting?" The second panel shows me eating leftover mac n cheese ffrom a bowl while my phone sits next to me. Dialogue from the phone reads, "I'm not gay for the Capital One Bank Guy." The caption reads, "Leftover mac n' cheese for lunch while I watch a video."

I'm not posting a comic for this week, as the hourlies covered it. It's also a lot of comic in general, complete with a little Thor.

The complete and clean #HourlyComicDay
This is my diary comic for the week too, so Friday will be silent.

I'm still working away on other things though, and the BIA ends THIS WEEK, so supporting me for a bit would be cool linktr.ee/detectiveken
Hourly Comic Day 2026. At 6AM, Circe woke Ken up to go outside. 11AM, Ken wakes properly. He's sick, and has been since the storm a few days ago. 12PM, Circe hasn't returned, so it must be nice out. 12:30PM, Circe returns, not to leave again till nightfall. 1PM, Ken reads some classic Stan Lee and Jack Kirby Thor. 2PM, Ken catches up on drawing these comics, all while drinking some turmeric and ginger black tea. 3PM, Ken's gotta send his details to the Airbnb he's staying in while in Japan. 4PM, It's garbage time, but the cold air stings Ken's sinuses, almost as if he's drowning. 5PM, He watched Steven Universe whilst drawing. 6PM, He had spicy ramen with chicken chunks for dinner. 7PM, Ken muses on the romatasy books he's been listening too. Perhaps he is too asexual, but they are comically horny. 8PM, it's time for him to wind down with some Elden Ring: Nightreign. He still doesn't have a crew though. 9PM, Ken defeated a Nightlord in Elden Ring: Nightreign for the first time, and it seems that the real Nightreign starts here. 10PM, After an awful morning, Ken ended up being very productive by getting these comics done and finding things to do. Circe on the other hand, barely moved after one o'clock. 11PM, Of course, now he's been playing that game for hours while listening to wrestling podcasts. 12AM, Maybe he needed this. It was a lot less isolated making these comics as part of a community, and also people reaching our between posts, and he certainly got to relax. Alas, tomorrow, the struggle continues. See you Space Cowboy

Now for THIS year's (much happier) hourly comic! #hourlycomicday2026 #hourlycomics #autobio #hourlies #artistsonbluesky
Autobio comic (depicting the artist as a black bird/dog thing and their girlfriend as a raptor). The artist and their gf watch trashy reality TV before going to bed, and then the artist's cat steps in their mouth at an unspecified time during the night.
