Some Kind of Curse

Nov03
by on November 3, 2023 at 9:23 pm

A four panel, full color comic. In the first panel, Emily sits on a couch, sadly looking at an open take out container of cold empanadas. The narration frames the scene as "Delivery Treat Week 1: Arrived Late, Cold, No Sauce" as Emily quietly mourns, "But...my dippums..." The second panel is framed by the narration of "Week 2: Completely wrong." Emily stands in the kitchen, lifting a piece of bread off of a very sad looking hamburger. She angrily yells, "Who orders a patty melt as a plain turkey burger?!" The third panel is framed by "Week 3." In it, Emily cheerfully walks down the hallway, grasping a paper bag in her hand. She says, "whew, that went off without a hitch! Now to just grab some chopsticks--" but she's cut off by a shout from the fourth panel. In the fourth panel, a centipede sits on the floor of the kitchen, and Emily comically recoils with a large and loud "JESUS" and an expletive cut off by the comic frame.

Formally, my title should now be “Slayer of Beasts and Defender of My Precious Takeout.” 🐛 Thanks as always for reading! See you next week!

Muscle Memory Malfunction

A five panel, full color comic. In the first panel, we see a hand with bandaids on the thumb and middle finger. The narration introduces with 'It's been a particularly clumsy week-" as two boxes point to each bandaid, labeling the middle figure injury with "cut on sharp knife in dirty dish tub while reaching for washcloth" and the thumb injury with "cut attempting to clean work laptop after an Orange Juice Incident." In the second panel, we cut to Emily sitting on the couch drawing on her tablet. The narration continues, "This wouldn't be too much of a problem, except..." as Emily says "oh, wait, that's not right," as she looks at her drawing. In the third panel, we zoom in on the tablet screen as Emily, with her bandaged hand, attempts to do the two finger undo gesture tap. In the fourth panel, we see that nothing has changed on the screen. In the fifth panel, Emily exhaustedly looks at her hand, putting together that her bandaids have prevented the gesture from registering, and simply lets out a defeated "well."

How clumsy am I, exactly? I have run into a stool that was sitting in the middle of an empty room, completely on accident. You can support the comic directly via Patreon and get behind the scenes posts and sketches[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

An Im-pasta-ble Task

A five panel comic, toned in brown and light brown. There are no panel borders, and it's mostly Emily standing in a formless space. In the first panel, Emily, frustrated, pounds her fist into her other hand. She begins narrating: "Ok, depression be damned, I'm gonna make an actual lunch that isn't just leftovers or veggies and hummus." In the second panel, Emily stands in front of a boiling pot of water, holding a box of pasta in her hand. "I'll just make that easy pasta dish," she continues. In the third panel, the scene zooms in as Emily tilts the box into the pot and pasta pours out uncontrollably. Emily quietly lets out a "wait-" at the torrent of pasta. In the fourth panel, the camera zooms out again and Emily stands in front of the pot, staring blankly. Labels identify the pot as having approximately 4 servings of pasta in it, and Emily as "1 me." In the fifth panel, observing the scene, Emily lets out a small "well."

Thanks as always for reading! Next week’s comic will be back to mostly normal. Hopefully!
