Mime Hunters Volume One

Hi gang,

So, the comic's finished, and there will be no more weekly updates for the foreseeable future. I'm going to leave a "table of contents" here in the top blog post. I'm also working on turning this into some kind of physical format, if anyone's interested in having a hard-copy of this story, so stay tuned for that. I'd like to do a Volume Two, but volume one was so draining; it might be a while before I pick up my pen again. I've got lots of ideas though. Anyway, thanks for reading, tell all your friends, etc...

The Short Goodbye

Hey gang,

So I've finally made it. The last comic. I finished drawing the final panel yesterday. It's been a very crazy year of drawing and I'm glad to be done. I don't have much more to say, for now. Happy New Year everyone!

Stay tuned for Mime Hunters: Volume 2!

Like A Boss

Hi gang,

Here's the climactic chapter 14. Excitement abounds!

Happy Holidays everyone!

All of the Lights

Alright, here we are with Chapter 13. I get to title it after a Kanye West song, which makes me very happy.

This issue expands on the lighting experimentation I played around with in Chapter 12, and does it a lot better, I think. Awesome visuals! And the story ain't bad either, I think. Some cool elements here!

In fact, I'm thoroughly happy with this chapter. I spent a lot of time thinking out how the plot/images would work out in the middle chapters;for the final four or five chapters (the "endgame") I felt like my hands were tied... I was forced to have everything I started to develop earlier tie up into an ending. Working on them, I just wasn't as excited about these final issues, because I already knew where it was all ending up. But once I saw the finished product here, I was very happy. The second half of this chapter is probably my favorite sequence in the whole thing!

Only two chapters left, so stay tuned over the holidays. And, as usual, tell all your friends!

Backstreets

Hi Everybody,

Here's Chapter Twelve. Getting close to the end of the adventure! This one's fairly exciting; lots of action.

With all the nighttime panels in these last few issues, I've been doing a lot of experimenting with light/shading/gradients/overlays. I hope it looks good! Obviously, some panels come off better than others. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Enjoy the comic, and tell all your friends!

Rumble in the Place

Hi team,

Here's another chapter, posted relatively early this week! I worry that the beginning of this one might be a little confusing... I sort of recommend that you read through the last two weeks' comics again (chapters nine and ten) if you forget what was going on the last time we saw Herbert, and the last time we saw Mirabelle.

In this one we get to see some night-time scenes drawn in the new "colorful" (grayscale) style I've developed. Hopefully it looks as good as I... hope... it does. Spell check wants me to change "grayscale" to "graybeard." Weird.

This is a chapter that I had in mind pretty much since the beginning. Nice to get a chance to finally see it online. A few really choice action panels here, I think. Enjoy it!

Mirabelle's Reverie

Hi guys,

Late update this week because of the holiday. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Please enjoy this Mirabelle-centric chapter. She's pretty awesome I think.

This is a fun one. I really like the staircase I drew. Not much else to mention. Hope everything is going well with everyone. That's all I got. Tell all your friends!
