My Adventures in Comics


“What’s Your Angle?”

It’s pretty much the end of 2009. Did things really change over this year? One of my favorite sayings is “the more things change, the more they stay the same.” For starters, it’ll be almost 2 years since Inna and I moved into our apartment in Hollywood (we don’t live in the apartment pictured). Second, it’ll be 5 years since we started dating. Holy shiznit!

Last thought: Heh, girls and their haircuts.

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.
