The Process

That probably should have been a thought bubble in the last panel, but I'm leaving it in because it's good to vocalize stuff to yourself sometimes!

This comic was finalized in Clip Studio Paint, using a Wacom Cintiq 16 that was acquired with funding from the German federal government's NEUSTART für Bildende Künstlerinnen und Künstler program.

Abandoned Places

 

Biking as a metaphor 🚲

***

I've moved my shop to Ko-Fi! It stocks digital and paper zines alike, as well as postcards and stickers. The cutoff for physical orders this year is December 15 and they will be processed again beginning January 4.

Also, ComicInvasion was a rousing success—thanks to everyone who stopped by and made it happen!! The virtual artist alley is still going and you can visit my table here.

Does Everyone Feel

[ Taylor Swift - the 1 ]

 

What is self-isolating without at least a little ruminating? Thanks to the city of Potsdam for providing a backdrop to musings, as well as a change of scenery.

Thanks also to everyone who requested their ballot, mailed it back, followed up with their election official, and asked their friends if they did the same. The work continues, but I hope you were able to celebrate this weekend. Let's keep going, and don't forget that the US Senate is still up for grabs.

Last Annoyances of Summer

 

 

Even with its annoyances, spending the summer outdoors was pretty enjoyable! In Berlin we're now at the start of another cold season, with the highest number of new covid cases per week since early April. Please be careful and be kind to yourself and to others!

If you're a US citizen, please mail your ballot in ASAP and call your senators about SCOTUS. Help make minority rule a thing of the past.

Treasure Hunt

 

 

I  contributed this comic to one of the ComicInvasion Treasure Hunt booklets! All four issues are hidden at various locations throughout the city while stocks last. Can you find them all?

I participated in a meme!

Small Talk (again)

Options include the 3-second "Alright", the 15-minute rant, and the 90-minute introductory course.

If you're reading this from the US, please consider donating to a bail fund in your area to support the ongoing protests for Black lives and against police brutality. You'll find a list of bail funds for protesters here.

If you are a US voter and have not yet registered to vote, you'll find information on how and where to do so, as well as what to do to vote by mail, at VoteSaveAmerica.com! If you are a US voter overseas and are not yet registered, it is now best at this time to first do so via VoteFromAbroad.org and also request your federal backup ballot in case your regular ballot does not arrive in time. You'll find links to both processes here.

If you live overseas and are not a US voter, please share this information with your US friends the next time you want to talk about US politics with them! It will be very helpful. Thank you!

Fortunately it's now autumn in Berlin.

Fanart Friday: "Summer Years", DCFC

I was listening to Death Cab’s Thank You For Today the other day and remembered that I drew this comic a couple years ago. 🎶 (TYFT is still one of my favorite albums.) (Also I miss the Royal Armouries in Leeds, where I believe the first panel is located! Either that or Hamburg. Which I also miss.)
