who keeps giving her these things

Jake “QShaman” Angeli was arrested earlier today for his part in attempting Beer Hall Putsch 2020. On his chest he bears a tattoo of a valknot, which is a symbol of Norse extraction that has been co-opted by white supremacists to declare a “warrior for Odin” mindset. Elsewhere in the insurrection, a man felt empowered to wear a vile “Camp Auschwitz” sweatshirt during the takeover of the Capitol. Just in case, y’know, somebody out there thinks it’s going too far to label any of these people as Nazis.

Hello there.

It’’s been quite a while since I did a proper update so here it is.Last year I started having serious back and left leg issues, they were so bad I spent most of my time on my back. It prevented me from doing quite a few things, this included some house hold chores I did on a daily/weekly basis. It also prevented me from sitting at a computer most days. There were times it got bad even when I was on my back. I began seeing a Doctor for my back. Thankfully I was able to get some medicine that helped dull the pain, but starting that April and over the course of, let’s say “Nine Months”, I fought to get an MRI done on my back to figure out just what the hell was happening.

Turns out I had a pinched nerve.

By the time April of THIS year rolled around, I was able to go and get injections for my back that helped revealed the pain. I still have a few aches here or there, but they’re more random and less painful, and I’m able to do the things I could do before.So Now I’m back at the computer (I’ve actually been back for a couple of months now). 

But during that Time I finally came to a rather sad revelation... I hate making comics... I love writing them, but physically making them, it was too time consuming and personally too draining on me. So It’s sad to say, but for the time being all comics are kinda on Hiatus. At least until I can find someone willing to draw them. Personally I would love to reboot all my series, but for the time being I think I would rather just work on writing. But at the same time, I can say this.

I am looking for an Artist to do comics with.

If you’re interested, click that it should have most of the details. So if comics are on a break for now, what will I be doing on Tumblr? Well I intend to start doing stuff on Youtube again in the near future, but I’m also working on some writing stuff that I may post here in the near future. At the very least, If I can’t get an artist for my comics, I can post the scripts here. I’m also doing some fun stuff on Minecraft and will probably post some pictures of my little project on here too. 

In the meantime feel free to sit around and wait or do whatever. Stuff is coming soon.

Today, I would like to commemorate an event which has laid a very profound impact on the internet.

Ten years ago on this day (06/08/09), a forum website called SomethingAwful held a photoshop contest titled “create paranormal images”.  The contest would require participants to edit ordinary photographs into creepy-looking images, and then try to pass them off as authentic photos on other paranormal forums.

Two days later, on June 10th, a user by the name Victor Surge would find this thread, and become inspired.  He submitted the two pictures above, featuring a tall, faceless monster which would stalk children, who would then disappear.  He called his monster “the Slender Man”. After this initial post, Surge and others would expand on the character and the story, creating one of the internet’s most famous monsters.  The Slender Man proved to be popular enough to spread to other websites, with 4chan, Deviantart, and TV Tropes all having their own Slender-Mania. On June 20th of that same year, another user on the SomethingAwful forums found the Slender Man, and also wanted to contribute.  Noticing nobody had made any videos yet of the monster, he sat down with some of his friends and planned out a video webseries involving a former college film student discovering and unravelling the mysteries surrounding Slender Man; this would become Marble Hornets, one of the first horror-themed ARG’s of the internet.

That all happened ten years ago.  Ten years of haunting the darkest corners of the internet, and Slender Man has built up a surprisingly dense resume, for a fictional monster.  Several popular webseries, a couple hit games, at least two movies, even inspiring other characters in seperate series like the Silence in Dr Who and the Enderman in Minecraft.  And all this within a ten-year period.

I think this just attests to how much humans can be inspired by an idea.  From a small handful of edited photographs, we collectively constructed a new monster which lurks in our nightmares, and now it almost seems as natural as the horror mythos he was based on.  For better or worse, the Slender Man seems to be here to stay. Happy Birthday, Slendy!  Here’s to hoping you continue to be both terrifying and terrific!

Thor + some of his under-appreciated intelligence

The story behind the bat nomenclature, or, batkids from Jason onwards question Bruce Wayne’s obsession with bats

Inspired by batfamscreaming’s very cute post  about Batman being a dad, and the very adorable and real phenomenon of words or phrases coined by older siblings being added to the family’s lexicon.

I took the liberty of including the typical (if altered) “Why?”/”Because I’m your father, that’s why” exchange because there can never be enough batdad, dammit.

A small Hiatus

So… I’m suffering from some Leg and Back pain that make working on comics a little hard right now. So reluctantly this weeks comics are on hold for a little bit. At least a week or two.
