Go to Patreon for more:

You scroll past these comics to escape stress, but on the other side, creators are drowning in it. Platforms profit from our work, but we see none of it.

Patreon is the difference between creating out of love and creating out of desperation.

If you've ever laughed, smiled, or felt less alone because of our comics, know this: Your support means the world to us.

Thank you for being part of the story and helping us keep creating what we love.

The kids are alright This lifesaving sturdy shopper bag is made from EarthAware certified 100% organic cotton. The cartoon is a handmade silkscreen print, produced locally.

During our last cemetery séance, a wicked witch appeared in a cloud of smoke with a ghastly offer: Stop drawing comics forever, and she'd grant us a living wage. We looked at each other and cackled maniacally: "Begone, foul temptress! Our patrons are the ones we answer to!"

We told the witch: thanks to our Patreon subscribers, we ARE making a living with comics! She grew fascinated, frantically scribbling notes. Now she's launching her own Patreon for vegan potions. And we think that's beautiful.

PS:

We want to remember the good internet. The cat clips, the funny family tales, the great comic feats. The internet that makes us laugh.

That's the internet we grew up on and the the one we want want to be a part of. We know that the world wide web is not always a great place.

Its like we are full of contradictions. One moment you're laughing at a tortoise enjoying a fresh lettuce leaf, the next you stumble across some heinous hateful trash. Thats what it feels like to be online today. Your brain cannot stand this whiplash.

Sometimes we want to throw our phones into the river and be done with it all. But then we remember you, our readers. And the good internet. And that its not time to give up just yet.

Our new book “Hi, Earth” is filled with funny stories about our favorite planet (Earth) and its inhabitants!

Order it anywhere online or at your local book store. We also offer signed copies in our online shop including an original scribble in each copy:

Every comic we publish takes a lot of steps, from the initial scraggly idea to the final post. There's the sketching, the inking, the coloring, the writing, the rewriting, the "is this even funny?" crisis at 2 AM, and the sacred final click on the ol' publish button on our tried and true website.

We do this every single week because we love it and because you show up to read it.

And the best part: With the help of Patreon, we can turn that thing we love doing into something we can actually live off of. If you'd like to be part of that, we'd be honored.

Right now, a small but mighty group of patrons is keeping this comic alive for millions of readers.

They're not billionaires or corporations, they're people like you who decided that a few dollars a month was worth it to keep something they love going.

We'd love for you to join them. Not because we need saving, but because we believe that this is the future of a fair internet. Supporting creators directly means more great things get made, for you and us to enjoy.

Throwback to 2018

When we started this comic, we made a deal with each other: as long as people care, we keep going.

Years later, millions of readers care and that's the most surreal, beautiful thing. But caring doesn't automatically translate into being able to keep creating.

Patreon bridges that gap between love and livelihood:

Think of our Patreon like a secret backstage door.

Out here, you get comics. In there, you enter our weird sanctum: comic battles where you can vote, the jokes that were too unhinged to post publicly, and the satisfaction of knowing you prevented 2 artists from having a real job.

The door is open. Come in: 

Putting art on your wall transforms those moments when you're just walking past into tiny moments of joy – like discovering a twenty in an old jacket, except it happens every single time you notice it.

There's a version of the future where we stop making comics. Then we open our messages and see someone telling us our comic got them through a rough week – and suddenly that future feels impossible.

You reading this right now, you're part of the reason we're still here. If you'd like to make that reason a little more official (and a lot more sustainable), our Patreon is the place:

Money is stupid, but we need it to live. Please consider donating to our Patreon to keep this comic alive and kicking!

We're 100% sure you'll have a great time getting all the secret comics, exclusive downloads, and watching BTS footage. See you there?

We've been making comics every week for the last 15 years – rain or shine!

Every time a reader like you decides to support our work via Patreon, it means we get to keep on going. We plan to be around for the upcoming 14 years – thanks to our community!

Fun fact: the time it takes us to create one comic is roughly the same as a transatlantic flight. Except there are no free drinks, no movies and the turbulence is emotional.

If you've ever wished you could buy us that airplane tomato juice: Patreon is basically that, but better. You'll get exclusive comics, behind-the-scenes content, and the warm feeling of keeping two sleep-deprived artists alive!
