Page 39! Epilogue of Sorts
It’s been awhile since I updated. I’m working on trying to get my comicbook into print, so some of these updates are out of order as I fill in gaps in my story for print. This page exists because I had a good drawing of a dumpster that I didn’t want to waste. Enjoy!
Nightstik! A lost page! 21!
So, a bit of advice I received at this year’s ECCC was to “make a thing.” So I decided to gather all of my pages into a simple publisher file to see what that would look like. Low and behold, I discovered that I got off on my pagination because of an added two page […]

Bale had apparently moved on or was not considered for the role as Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight was decidedly different in tone and style than Zach Snyder’s take […]
Page 31
This is a particularly personal page for me. It was the first one that I did digitally when I bought Clip Studio (then Manga Studio). This is the “why.” Nightstik is a send up of a certain type of hero, but he lacked a motivation. He is an orphan like so many other heroes, but […]
