the shirts referenced in the first post are no longer available. one of the copyright holders being parodied asked them to take it down and it's not the one I expected!

I think when i run out of enthusiasm for the feeling of productivity itself, that's the feeling I try to bring back to mind. That people will stumble on my work and they won't see the grind or the nitpicks, they'll just see something new (to them) that they get to dive into

when i was a kid i found one of the big Far Side volumes buried somewhere in my parents basement. I'd never heard of it, and it felt like hitting a rich vein of gold by total chance. It was exciting that stuff like this was just out there in the world to be found

I always worry that pages like this are more satisfying to write/draw than they are to read, so this is really nice to hear thank you!!

Here's a fairer comparison, an 8 panel page from 2016 vs. 2024. I started out with this really utilitarian process for "translating" my long dialogue-based scripts into comics, and I think you can kinda see it in how "on-rails" those layouts were, for lack of a better term.

My chapters have ballooned in length partially because I've just gotten a lot more luxurious with my use of space on the page. This is an extreme example but lol

the workaround feed (softies.net/category/comics/feed) relies on me to manually tag each post for the rss feed, which I'm not good at doing, so it might not be 100% reliable

the default feed (softies.net/comic/rss) does not work, for reasons that I think might be related to the axial tilt of saturn or the emotional security of a specific trout in the mississippi river
