We’ll Return After These Messages

MAY 27th: Notes for pages 200-209 will go up on Monday evening (Memorial Day)! Hi all! Starting May 20th I embark on something that scares the heck out of me. I’m taking a trial four weeks off of updating with new pages of art so that I can focus on writing (yes, writing Family Man). […]
So! It’s June 17th! The day I said I’d be back from my writing break, ready to start posting weekly Family Man pages again. I won’t waste space: no, the comic isn’t back yet. Taking a month off updates to focus on scriptwriting has been simultaneously fruitful (progress!) and frustrating (things I still need to […]
Hello all – as promised, the comic is back! This page arrives on a Wednesday since I promised it would be up on the 21st, but for future updates Family Man will remain a Friday comic. To get you back in the habit of it, come back here this Friday (that’s 9/23) and you’ll find […]
I did many comics-related things over my summer break, but one of the most rewarding was finally getting the chance to draw a short story that I’d been keeping in reserve. I’d written the script called “Outfoxed” (a cynical little fairytale) a few years ago, so it was a long-delayed gratification. It gave me the […]
Friends, let us all reflect on this week’s page and remind ourselves: it is never a good idea to piss off a crowd of lawyers. Thanks to all of you who checked out my recent short story, Outfoxed, when I posted it last Friday; for those of you who missed it, you can find  all […]
Tra-la-la, I think we’ve officially gone from “foreshadowing” to just plain old “shadowing” at this point. More good news for comic book fans: my studiomate Jonathan Case is taking the world by storm this month! His debut graphic novel Dear Creature hits the shelves on the 11th. You will like it, because it stars a […]
Rector Nolte is having a very, very bad day. It will probably not get any better. As my aside for this week, I thought I’d point out a nice article that Laura Hudson recently posted on ComicsAlliance. She asked nearly a dozen comics creators and editors – including at least four people I can personally […]
We’re really getting somewhere now, aren’t we? Heavens have mercy. (They won’t.) I’m a little wonky under the hood this week, so I won’t try to dredge a big blog post up out of my fuzzy brain. Enjoy the page, and I will see you all next week for more fun with the Nolte family.
The Noltes might be under just a tiny bit of stress. Happy Halloween to all those who celebrate it! (Those of you who don’t: give it a whirl, it’s the best.) Â Allow me to recommend you to one of my favorite personal illustration challenges ever, Danse Macabre 2.0, in which I gave myself an excuse […]
I realize that this story gives new meaning to the term “slow build,” but do trust me when I say that this page is a bit of a milestone! You’ll find out soon what the deal is with this particular moon we’ve been working up to. I’ve had a busy week, so no time for […]
