Alien Show Gets New Blood



This is the newest character on the Alien Show. It's the first female character too. I've got about 4-5 new characters I've penciled and inked a template for but I haven't scanned them into my computer yet. Hopefully I can do that soon and get them into the rotation.

Countdown Segment



I wish I had something other than political videos to post lately but for the time being I don't. Fortunately, this sh*t is hilarious. Not really, but it would be if it wasn't so true. The best part is the very end when he tells Bush to "Shut. The. HELL. up!"

Off and Running

I'm just 3 days in now and Untelevised is off to a great start. Of the four webcomics I've done, 'Untelevised' has had the best 1st and 2nd day and the 3rd looks like it could be even better (it's 4:00am as I'm writing this)

It was my second highest comic yesterday (based on page views) which is pretty impressive considering the comic consists of one page and a title page. It even gave Clinical Assassin a run for it's money. (Just to put that in perspective, 'Clinical Assassin' is by far my highest ranking comic - It nearly doubles the total page hits for my other two comics on Saturdays, the day I update it)

Let's hope this holds. Like I said in this article yesterday, I've already got the first 10 strips ready to be uploaded so I've got a good head start. By the time I reach that 10th strip I should have a good idea of how well the comic is gonna be recieved.

I'll be sure to update again around that time.

Untelevised

Untelevised
"The Revolution will not be televised."


This is my latest webcomic that I just launched today! The only thing live right now is the title page but I'll be updating every day for at least the next 10 days, probably a lot more than that though.

The reason I say that is because I've already completed 10 strips that are ready to upload so I'm well ahead for the foreseeable future (just in case something comes up)

The main focus of this strip is politics and religion... and I'm not holding anything back. If you love Jesus and think that your love for him makes you better than me.. please, please go read this webcomic where I'll often make fun of your beliefs :) Just don't take it personal, ok?

Did I mention the whole thing is done in high detail stick figures? Yes it is. It's one thing to be funny, or to draw cute little stick figures. It's something completely different to go to great lengths to ensure the highest quality stick figures on the internet.

Clinical Assassin

I just wanted to give everybody an update for Clinical Assassin. Chapter 2 is currently running on WebcomicsNation.com and there's only a few installments left.

I've had some financial problems that have kept me from being able to work on the rest of the story, but as of right now chapter 3 is in development. I've talked to J.C. and gotten an agreement worked out for chapters 3 & 4.

The rest of the story will be considerably shorter than I'd originally intended, but it'll feel like a faster moving story now.

Once we've got the next two parts of the Clinical Assassin saga finished, we'll have the first completely finished story. Once we get to that point, I'll start looking at the diferent print-on-demand companies and figuring out which one I want to go with and I'll finally have a print version of Clinical Assassin available!

How To Burn Your Foot

An essay by Shan Lee Cook

My dad bought a new ceramic outdoor fireplace today and because it was there, it had to be used. So we're sitting there, and after several hours of watching my father perfect his mastery of the flame, he gets up and stumbles inside (having had a few drinks) leaving me to fend for myself. I could tell he'd passed his limit as he stumbled passed the window in the living room, and I'd later find him passed out on the couch in the basement.

As everyone knows, I am a skilled Master of Fire. As such, I found myself alone forcing the flame to fulfill my will. I'd slam the hook on the end of the fire-poker into the log and chip another layer off, feeding the hot flames. But then, just when I'd let my guard down, (and set the poker down in the same spot we always keep it) I turned to pick up my pack of cigarettes. I lit up as my mind wondered toward the thought of a nice cold glass of coca-cola. In an uncharacteristic moment of weakness, I turned to walk toward the house in which the kitchen existed. That's when I felt the sudden and unavoidable reminder of where I left the fire-poker. It was directly under my attractive and completely awesome foot.

I BURNT MY F*CKING FOOT ON A HOT FIRE-POKER AND IT HURT LIKE HELL!

Hours later now, I've got this huge blistering welp across the bottom of my foot (which is still attractive and completely awesome btw) but at least the streak of black ash finally came off. I can still walk on it, and even run should I find myself in a life or death situation, but I can tell that this injury would be enough to kill the average human being.

Thank you and goodnight.

Webcomic Rank 9

It's the first of the month again so the rankings reset. I checked my stats just a few minutes ago and all 3 comics were in the 50s :) This probably just means I was one of the first to get a vote today but if everybody continues to vote for me I could stay pretty high in the rankings this month. So do that!
