If I (mentally) scribbled my timeline notes right, Andi started calling a little less than a week before the adoption day, and this meeting was put off until they had a chance to talk without child’s ears around, so it’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I mentioned in Andi's cast page entry that she has an in-progress back tattoo themed around the Epic of Gilgamesh. I wanted to get at least one shot of it worked in. I think it will probably become a continuity nightmare. XD
For those that may be interested, I uploaded a couple of my better student art projects to my Deviant Art account. http://eclipsing-saturn.deviantart.com/gallery/ Some of the items in that gallery are oooooollllld, so don’t judge me too harshly. XD
I was going to have Todd offer Andi a beer, but then I remembered it's still late morning at this point in the narrative. This almost led me to include a line about how Todd decided to stop keeping beer in the apartment because of post-adoption inspections, but it was too wordy to squeeze in.
Aaaand scene change. 😀 Probably silly to post this a second time, but based on reader feedback I made a few more changes to the seating chart. I replaced the X placeholder name for the orphans that were surrendered as[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I didn't mention it last time due to forgetfulness, but I am playing with no panel borders, based on some critical feedback from one of my professors during a student work critique.
To my fellow American readers, happy Labor Day! 😀 Sorry to make the holiday post one with kids being mean. I wanna share the latest fan art update while I am here! Courtesy of FlanFlanShazam, two Selkie inspired drawings: Thank[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I think "psychic devil orphan" sounds like something that might come out of Georges mouth.
Oh man you guys, I thought this one was gonna be delayed, but I pulled it off! This semester I have night classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, and I was a bit worried about the Thursday updates. Hopefully, you’ll never[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Marla B. Sanderson is a former mayor of Calumet City (where the comic takes place) who had a strong presence in the education system.
Soon Selkie’s palate will expand to birdses, cowses, maybe even kangarooses. (A friend of mine told me over the weekend about how he had tried kangaroo steak in Iowa and he thought it was really good. I’m a bit curious[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I decided to add a few touches to the apartment that I didn't fully think about previously (appliances, functional handles on the stove and refrigerator, etc). I have learned that I can not draw can openers.
I have been getting SLAMMED with spam comments over the past two days. Woke up to 50 comments queued for moderation that all said generic things like “This makes everything so completely panliess.” (actual quote), and link to Bing or[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I try not to do the "talking with a closed mouth" thing a lot of comics seem to do (even the professional ones!), but I enjoy Selkie's pursed lips face in panel 2 too much. :D
Todd’s face in panel 6 is close to the face I made the first time I saw my dog kill a possum. I call it the “Oh dear sweet lord, my baby just killed” face. Next week’s shorts should be[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Today's edition of the Secret Commentary is empty, because Dave failed to come up with something for it.
The difference between “cattle” and “companion” is fascinating to me. And for those of you in America, happy Memorial Day. I have a cousin in the Army myself; my best goes out to ya Max. – – – – –[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

First of a few short story segments. After spending so long on the events of one day, it’s refreshing and a bit strange to write a one-page joke comic like this. XD A little background information on this strip: I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
