Recently, I won a number of prestigious awards at the third annual “Automotive Webcomic Awards“, held recently outside of Tucson, Arizona. The AWA is “dedicated to promoting and celebrating American-made webcomics that best advance the Automotive Lifestyle“. This year, the AWA was sponsored by Korean tire manufacturer, “Go Tires”, and 2 brands of soda: “Mountain [...]
A few years ago (2004?), I did the 24 Hr Comic Challenge with my buddies Ben “Iron Henry” Hunter and Shannon “Voya” Potratz. Here’s a video that Ben recorded during the epic 24 hours. This was one of my first attempts to draw vector art straight into the computer, and as Ben indicated, I got [...]
Autumn is in the air, even here in the deep, dark, desert. By “dark” I mean “deep”, of course. A chill is in the air, which means that I feel alive again, once or twice every 14 months or so. It’s seriously great to listen to the air, and not hear the constant droning of [...]
When I was a teenager, I spend a number of years living without running water, electricity, and modern plumbing. No, really. It’s one of the reasons I’m creative, and erm… weird. Anyway, later on, we had a water cistern (tank) on the top of our pine covered hill, where we lived. Once every week, I’d [...]
Being one of the 13th sloppiest people in the world, I can assure you that cleaning is not one of my strengths. I’m messy, and I’m not terribly shy about admitting it. However, there is one thing in my life (okay, two things, smartass) that I must keep clean at all costs; my glasses. If [...]
So, it may make sense to you, that this was written a couple of months ago, in the dazzling Phoenix, Arizona heat. I was in the car, as I often wrote these, and it was probably about 110 outside. Basically, it makes you car, tires, and face melt. Later, my oft neglected buddy and writer [...]
I think that I’ve made it pretty clear that I don’t like to fix things. It’s not that I don’t like to nurture or whatever… I just don’t know how to really fix things. Well, that’s not entirely true. When somebody shows me, I still don’t really do a very good job. Years ago, my [...]
“Alchemy, the best medicine.” – Chadworth Machine I’ll be surprised if anybody sees this comic at all. I figure you all are in your little caves, cuddled around each other, sucking the meat off of left-over turkey bones and drinking gravy from cups. Oh, sorry. I was talking about myself. Last thing you’d want to [...]
Auto trouble, just plain sucks. But bad drivers… they suck worse. Six months ago, I was commuting with my family on the way to the Day Job. (Me, my wife, and our 6 yr old.) It was o-dark-30 and we were merging from one highway (the I-17 South to the 101 West), going about 75 [...]
Take Monster Commute with you Our buddy Ross Cooper has taken the time to create a MonCom webcomic reader, for your iPhone! You’ve got to know we’re thrilled, since we’ve been working on this since last September. (Well, at least Ross has.) I wanted to be sure to keep it free so that you could [...]
Monstru Pirate Radio (MPR) interviews Beastio Agyris Wand (BAW) MPR: Thanks for answering our questions today. BAW: Yep. Can you hear me okay? MPR: Yeah, loud and clear. MPR: So, we’ll get right to it. Why are you wanted by the Authority? BAW: Well, no reason, really. I still don’t really know what happened. I [...]
