“Staph Special”

Experimenting with new places to eat can be exciting and dangerous. Who knows whether or not the Yelp reviews are right? Reminds me of the time we went to eat at this waffle place on Sunset and Argyle. The pancakes were not done and the eggs were runny. Gross. Someone on Yelp said that they should’ve been called “The Awful”. Never going to eat there again. It was pure crapcrapium.

About MY ADVENTURES IN COMICS

Since I had no confidence in my drawing skills, I figured I’d take a bunch of photos and organize them into a comic strip. Everything about the comic was inspired by real life. However, it started to get difficult telling a story or writing a joke around photos and it felt like I was doing everything backwards.

So, at the end of 2014, I thought I’d try my hand at writing a joke first, then drawing. Thus, the comic was reborn. Though it seemed simple enough, I wondered if I could keep it up regularly. And now, here we are.

My Adventures in Comics is A COMPLETELY FICTIONAL strip inspired by life, love, family, work, cats & dogs, and music.

Tools: pencil, pens, paper, and Comic Life program.
