Ugh. Mondays. It was a good weekend though. We went to see They Might Be Giants at UCLA’s Royce Hall on Saturday night. They were fantastic as usual. The entire performance was based on the Flood album. I think it’s their weirdest album.

Then on Sunday, we went to see Pirate Radio. It was okay. I get it though, rock music is a big deal. Afterwards we practiced our instruments.

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.
