Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Even sewer goblins. Dave's family just refuses to stop flushing down wipes, thus they keep on ruining the sewer goblins' home town by clogging up important infrastructure.

Lord knows I am not a big fan of Amy Klobuchar (or at all), but seeing this moment of a woman schooling some Real Men™ (because you know that is how they see themselves) about some pretty basic sports knowledge is absolutely delightful.

Valid criticisms on todays #terriblecomictuesday

Two panel and an empty space comic. Weird little rabbit dude reflects on how boids normally dance to get each other's attention. He precedes to do the worst looking dance of all time in front of the boids. One screams that it's awful while the other one offers a more in depth criticism which surprised the weird due and the other boid.

It's another #TerribleComicTuesday and someone really ought to do something about that thing

Line drawn digital comic. The first scene shows the artist looking upwards with her hand shading her eyes, squinting at something far above her. The second scene depicts some kind of unfathomable horror, a monumental flat rectangular pillar covered with uncomfortable staring eyes, and edged with gritted grinding teeth, screaming and dripping slight trails of saliva on the ground, while the artist is tiny and insignificant in comparison. The caption reads "Getting real sick of this colossal unholy screaming pillar of agony"

Happy #terriblecomictuesday. Fixing Breaking Bad

6 panel terrible comic.
First panel: what is trying to pass as Walter White is being told, "Walter White, you have cancer. You're dying." Walter, concerned replies, "Damn."
Second panel: man in a button up and woman clutching a wad of cash are saying, "Walter, we are your very rich friends. We will pay for your treatment."
Third panel: extremely bad close up of "Walter White" wearing shades with both thumbs up. "RAD!" he says.
Fourth panel: Walter White is hooked up to an IV in a hospital bed, moaning, "Damn chemo fucking sucks"
Fifth panel: we see the back of "Walter's" bald ass head, his family looks at him saying "We're so glad you're ok! We love you!" His horrible brother and sister in law are also there, saying, "We're still awful".
Sixth and final panel: "Jesse/Jessie" is wearing his dumb knit cap, looking happily off to the side, saying, "What a beautiful day"

It's #TerribleComicTuesday and I have a zine PSA (as I'm in the midst of Phoenix Zine Fest prep)

A black and white comic. The first half reads: "If you are making one page mini-zines, DO NOT use this format! It's extra effort to fold the cover in place and is messy! Makes my hand sad! Bad!!!" The second half reads: "Use this one instead! The cover is easier to fold, less effort on my hand! Hand approved! So clean!" The bad format is for US copy size paper with the the bottom half labeled in quarters (left to right) pg 5, pg 6, back cover, front cover. The top half - flipped 180, appearing upside down - is pg 1, pg 2, pg 3, pg 4. The correct format is in quarters (left to right) back cover, front cover, pg 1, pg 2. Top half - flipped 180, appearing upside down - is pg 3, pg 4, pg 5, pg 6. Somehow this makes the cover pages in the middle section when folding.

It's #TerribleComicTuesday. Again. I need to make comics on a day when I don't do D&D for my sister's kids. 😅 So. Terrible Comic. Tuesday. It's a thing. Tell your friends.

It's another Devil Girl and Moon Dinosaur (Don'tSueMeDisney) comic.

Panel one has Devil Girl standing on a porch. She is a young devil, forehead horns, her white hair in braids, a cropped T-shirt and a plaid skirt. Knee socks and a devil's tail.

Her mom yells from off screen: "Dear, would you get your mom's phone?"

Did I mention that Devil Girl looks put out? She yells back: "Ugh. Where is it?"

Mom: "In the living room,by the fish tank!"

Devil Girl: "UGH. FINE!"

Then there's panel two.

Devil Girl, looking disgusted, and two fish, standing on an army tank.

With one of those big cannons? So, not a watery fish tank, but a pow boom tank?

See how I messed with your expectations?

For comedy?

So you could laugh?

Yup.

Okay then.

Late posting again, another autobiographical #terriblecomictuesday

3 panel terrible comic
First panel- two polished looking women are facing each other, talking, a partial messy head is in the foreground. "And I heard her daughter was diagnosed with autism!" says one to the other.
Second panel- in unison, both polished women's heads swivel to the messy hair in foreground, who registers surprise via exclamation marks above her head and a silent "oh god"
Final panel- we see the messy head's Muppet face, hands up, sort of like shrug emoji I guess, sweat droplets on her face annoying off her to indicate discomfort and also the fact that she is a sweaty bitch. The polished women are now in the foreground with their backs to us. Muppet face (the author) is saying, "autism info dump" so you know what she's talking about without it having to be written or being subjected to it (you're welcome). In the background, we see her thoughts, which are: "WHY ARE THEY LOOKING AT ME WHAT IS HAPPENING"

"Terrible" can mean "scary." I wanted to make a horror comic for #terriblecomictuesday but started too late. I used photos I took of utility poles, corn & windmills at sunset. The aliens are made of Slump the snow tripod. #collage #digitalart #surreal #aliens #sunset #photocomic

Captions in the thought bubbles from the shimmery alien root system: humans are so dependent on patterns and rules that all it takes to derail them is to show them something that differs from what they expect- even if the difference is trivial. We asked some humans why this is and they said something about "survival instincts" and "death."

Thought bubble captions: We've adjusted the simulation to make it as familiar as possible, and we're rearranging our roots to evoke animal shapes the best we can. You guys still like trees and clouds and symmetry, right? We don't want to scare you too much; irrational humans are not useful for our projects.

Captions: What's the problem with death if humans keep making new humans? We get that humans can't be too wasteful of their bodies. But their fear of death is so excessive that it can slow development, or prevent them from escaping life-threatening scenarios! Humans ask us constantly what we are but reject every answer. What do you mean you "don't remember?" We've tried to introduce ourselves many times since life appeared on this planet, but humans always act like they've never seen us before. So do your brains just... lose data permanently? and this isn't a conscious decision? wow.

panel 2: now square and teal, the top person asks "teal, and square?" to which the second person responds "not bad."
panel 3: now black, the first person asks "what about fire again?" and the second person is on fire screaming "NOOOOOOO"
panel 4: first person asks "too soon?" while the second person, no longer on fire and visibly charred, confirms "too soon.

#TerribleComicTuesday, the alt text might be more legible, trying something out with converting a photo I snapped at a show.

The background is a photograph of the Ojai Womans Club stage, lit in blues and purples. Photo converted to ASCII.

The left of the photograph shows a drum set, an empty chair, and some speakers.
There is a date at the far bottom left, the day the comic went up, 9/22/2026

The right is covered up by yellow text. The text reads:

"I feel like I'm not allowed to exist or around people unless I'm being a productive member of society. On a good brain day the consequence can be mild embarrassment. I can live with that.

On a bad day the penalty can be severe. So much so that even socializing online is a risk. God will punish me first; and then everyone I care about and know; and then everyone. If I don't get the lesson then more people will be hurt more severely until I stop messing up. These delusions only hold for part of the time, but when they take hold they occupy my mind as absolute truths.

I'm told that there's a way to get fixed by doing the work. With the work looking a lot like being a productive member of society. Yes, cool, I want that. I keep pushing for that. And then when I meltdown or when I break I try to keep it hidden.

Because all of me was taught not to bother others with emotions, to keep the emotions hidden away so as not to be a bother. My brain knows that the mask will keep cracking, but I also can only get help if I keep masking up."

Sustainability is important. I'm doing my part by recycling this comic I already posted for #terriblecomictuesday A tribute to intrusive thoughts suggesting terrible executions for otherwise okay solutions

Four panel comic. Top left shows someone looking at a clarinet mouthpiece in their hand. The cork end is exposed. They look somewhat glum. Text reads, "forgot my cork grease". Second panel shows the person looking up thoughtfully. Text reads, "chap", which is crossed out. The text continues, "Lip balm is the same, right?". The third panel is broken into three. One shows the person shrugging, they're tiny and cartoonish. Next panel shows a stick of lip balm floating above a hand. The label reads "bapstick". The third shows lips with lip balm being put on. The fourth panel shows the person rubbing the cork end of their mouth piece on their lips

I was about 6 years old, when I got one of those little old-fashioned Game&Watch LCD handhelds back when the crystals could only be black or off, and each one would have only one game each (no cartridges) because said LCDs could only do pre-determined patterns. That's all it took.

Bra tråd. Det er helt vilt hvor mange med definisjonsmakt eller portvokterfunksjon som fortsatt selvrettferdig insisterer på at folk velger det sanne alternativet foran løgnen om de presenteres begge. Og ikke ser sitt eget ansvar i å hegne om sannheten, selv om det er kostbart, krevende og kjedelig.

Yesterday's #TerribleComicTuesday that I felt too embarrassed to post. The downswing of my mood makes everything more challenging to navigate ughhhh.

A four panel comic. The first has the artist standing with their eyes closed and a thought bubble above them reading "It feels like it didn't even happen." Text below: "I scheduled a buffer day between travel and work, but am barely functioning." Next panel has the artist sitting down thinking "Ugh, I wish I could stay home longer." Text below: "I hate how much I simply want to rot in bed." Third panel has the artist shocked looking at their phone, thinking "WTF!" Text below: "Though I got an estimate for a procedure scheduled in a few weeks..." Last panel has the artist depressed thinking "Now I have to go to work..." Text below: "I really just want to runaway from real life."

I think someone has already done this before me, maybe, but at least I got it out #terriblecomictuesday

A man holds up a painting. It has red paint on it, illustrating what looks like strange splatters, artistically rendering the artists thoughts in abstract patterns.

Bespectacled man: "John, did you draw this?"

John (shadowed in the foreground): "No, no."

John points at the true author of the piece. They titled it "First Blood," at first seeming to represent war? Yet, perhaps the piece represents the birth of something new, something else that is strangely brought into being.

John: "They drew 'First Blood,' not me."
