Sometimes I write comics, sometimes I draw comics, sometimes I write and draw comics, and sometimes I publish other people’s comics. Here’s some of the comics I’ve made.

Laser Brigade – My space opera web comic, that I write and draw. For Book 1, I challenged myself to write and draw each chapter in one or two sittings, directly in ink, without using a pencil or a ruler. For Book 2, “Tales of the Laser Brigade,” I invited some of my friends to contribute, and received excellent stories by Matt Kish, Josh Burnett, and Doug Meyer. I also drew a couple of stories. You can order Book 1 here, and Book 2 here. You can read the entirety of Book 3 here.
Fuzzball & Scuzzball – You could say that this is my web comic magnum opus. I wrote and drew the adventures of Fuzzball, Scuzzball, and their friends for years, until I brought the story to a conclusion. It’s all online, so hop on over to the website and check it out.
Other comics I’ve worked on over the years include Don’t Quit Yer Day Job, Circadian Rhythms, The Zimberwack Winter Extravamaganza, Esoterica, SPUDD 64, The Swimmin’ Mole, Heliopolis, Monsters Against Robots, Rad Dude, Happy D20 Adventures, Weirdo-Freak, and Tarnished.
Here’s a page I drew that features a bunch of characters created by me, Dale French, and Matt Kish:
