Multiverse Comics & Stories

“Lost,” p. 21 of UnTethered (No.1). See below for more info. As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been looking for a new project. On Jan. 3, the post I titled “The Churn,” I wondered if making a comic about the process I use to make comics might be a good idea. I’m not wondering any more – I think the idea stinks! I’ve got another idea. I’ve tentatively titled “The Road to Planet X.” It’s a silly…

Cameron found this while looking through a box of pre-smartphone snapshots. (This, as you may have noticed is not a snapshot.) I like how one E.T. has five eyes and one has one eye, but two mouths. Stupid things like this make me happy! The back of the (somewhat worse for wear card) says, “Wow! Not only do we get to travel through time and space together, boon companions united in spirit and…

“Watcher Doin’s,” a page from a new work-in-progress. I’ve been wanting to come up with a different comic using the same kind of process, the same kind of source I use for creating images. I’ve had a lot of half-baked ideas, but just today, a new one popped out of the idea oven. I want to make a comic that explains this comic-creating process. That sounds awfully self-referential, but there’s…

“Portal”, p. 15, from UnTethered, a full-color comic book (see below). The greens are really popping in this RGB file! I think I have at least begun to master the basics of self-publishing comics on IngramSpark. I’ve got 3 titles currently in production: UnTethered (the first in a series), UnTethered No. 2, a brand new comic, and Atomic Bug Is Missing. I’ve OK’d the eProofs and ordered a print…

“Listener and the Floater” is a page from UnTethered, a full-color comic. See more below. Cameron, my wife, has been leading a group meditation sit for about 6 months. Currently, it’s being held in the basement meeting room of Roxborough’s branch of the Free Library, 6245 Ridge Avenue. It’s every Wednesday at 11:30 and lasts an hour. Thanks to Chuck Broadbent of Village on the Ridge for…

“Dukkha” is an ancient Pali word usually translated as “suffering.” “Air & Earth” is a page from UnTethered, an original, full-color comic. I’ve mentioned this comic repeatedly and will no doubt do so again. I often repeat myself repeatedly. I do like the complex and messy sky which is, I’m sure, not nearly as complex and messy (and beautiful) as the actual sky we share. A friend of mine,…
