"Modern Era" Timeline, Part 1
Someone asked if I had a timeline for when everything in my stories happened. I had tried making one before, but I didn't like how it was turning out. So, here's the beginning of a new attempt.
June 26, 2016 is the day my first comic officially went on sale, so that's the start of what you ...

What Might've Been...
Last one featuring these two for a while. My thought was that before they decided to retire, there was a fight scheduled between the two of them that was at first delayed, then ultimately cancelled. The poster became a minor collector's item.

Since I did one with Daphne, I had to show Bobbi "Boom-Boom" Pileggi being a spokesmodel for 10-count Fitness, a chain of East Coast boxing gyms she co-owns.

I think I almost have this "Real Housewives" idea fleshed out to where I can put it on the shelf and come back to it once I have an opening on the schedule. Daphne "Red Dragon" Regan's married to the owner and CEO of DuraFoxy Boxing Gear, and is essentially now the face of the company modeling th...

Still playing around with the "Real Housewives" idea. I like inverting the "Trophy wives that take up boxing" trope into up-and-coming boxers that became trophy wives. Their lives both followed the same track: In their mid-20s they both got title shots at Mariana Bautista when she was just starti...

This will be a quick story, just 16 pages, and will wrap up next month. There will also be a "hand-drawn" version published to the $20 tier, where the art will look like this:
When it's completed, ...

Haircut test
Playing around with a concept from an old J.M. Rolen comic where the fighters got some of their hair cut off after each knockdown. It's one of those ideas that's easy to draw on paper but a lot more technically challenging to do in renders. But, that's what makes it fun for me.

FYI: Back to normal for October
Just a reminder that my "vacation" is ending, and posting will be back to normal starting tomorrow. So, all current patrons will be charged tomorrow on the first as usual.

Big Fish in Small Ponds: Sneak Peek
I'm trying to use my "vacation" to stockpile some pages and lessen my monthly workload a bit for the rest of the year. I wanted to experiment with a hand-drawn look without committing to a big project for it, and using a nine-panel grid structure to condense the story down to keep it from getting...

I've had this low-income housing location for a while, and I thought it'd be a good setting for kind of a rougher setup.
