Happy Pride from Trueniverse Comics and the (almost entirely queer) True Colors cast! No matter how you do or don't identify, you matter 🏳️‍🌈💖🏳️‍⚧️

An illustration celebrating Pride Month with Trueniverse Comics and True Colors, a webcomic by Tripp Gustin. The headline text reads "Happy Pride from Trueniverse Comics." The illustration depicts several characters from the True Colors in a variety of pride-themed attire, waving pride flags, and holding signs on Trueman University's campus. Their shirts read things like "Labels are for soups" in nonbinary pride flag colors, "My sexuality is nah" in asexual pride flag colors, "Black Trans Lives Matter" in trans pride flag colors. The signs say "Love is too beautiful for the closet," "Gender? I hardly know them!" in agender pride flag colors, and "You Are Loved" in rainbow.

In it is depicted an exaggerated dramatic reenacment of the Trueman Brothers and their efforts to convince investors to invest in their new company. Abe Trueman gestures excitedly at his brother's inventions and is dressed like a showman, wearing a purple tophat, jacket with tails, and cane over his usual purple sweater. C Trueman wears his usual white button down, tie, and circular glasses, holding a raygun and looking nervous. Around them are several early technology prototypes from the Trueman Corporation's early days, such as a large supercomputer with the "Wizard" face, a toy rocketship, a boxy toy robot, a bulky early cellular phone, and a small portable television with antennae and the Wizard face on its screen. They stand on a large pile of moneybags as dollar bills rain from the sky. Behind them, Eloise and L watch proudly, L's arm on Eloise's shoulder.

A panicked man wearing the black mask and striped shirt of a classic cartoon burgla runs out of a bank, holding sacks of money. A second man waits in a beaten-up car, looking nervous. Behind them, a security guard shakes his fist.
Robber: "Okay I got it, go go go!"
Driver: "Car's running, hurry up!"

Panel 2:
The two men sit safely in the car, money in the backseat. They smile at each other, with the driver punching the robber in the arm amicably. In the rear-view mirror you can see red and blue lights fading in the distance.
Robber: "Phewww, that was close! We actually did it!"
Driver: "Hell yeah! With this haul we're gonna make out like bandits!"

Panel 3:
The robber and driver both look away, blushing. They both grin bashfully.
Robber: "Heh... yeah..."

Robber: "Yep."
Driver: "..."

Smash cut to their hideout, where the robber and driver are furiously making out on top of their piles of money bags. Their bodies are entertwined as hearts surround them. The room is filled with the sounds of sloppy makeouts like "Mmmm... ohhh... smack... mph" and so on.

Erica Wang stands in the middle of the Delta Tru sorority rush party with a glass of champagne in one hand, but is fixated on the Vera Tea with T Vera livestream on her phone. Through the window behind her we can see Sonia, Tasha, and Frank in the background.
Tasha: Well viewers, unfortunately it looks like this interview won't be happening after all. Mademoiselle Trueman is too eager to get back to her little rich bitch Delta Tru mixer and doesn't have time for us commoners.
Erica: Tch.

Panel 2:
Tasha, masked by filters, whispers conspiratorially to her livestream viewers. Sonia fumes in the background. A grahpic reads "DL on the DL".

Sonia: Alright. Alright!

Panel 3:

Panel 4:
Frank and Tasha look at each other in silence, considering this. A large ellipses is overhead.

Panel 5:
Frank and Tasha look back at Sonia, appeased. Frank nods, giving a thumbs up and a rare smile.
Tasha: We can work with that.

Panel 6:

Tasha: Thank you so much for cooperating, sonia. ..."Sincere Sonia"? "Straight Shooter Sonia"? We'll workshop it later.
Sonia: ...You're welcome.

Panel 7:
Sonia smiles nervously at the camera. A chibi graphic of Tasha pops up in the viewport.
Sonia: I, um... I hope I can restore some of the trust that's been lost over the past few years!

A 4 panel comic strip from the webcomic Comicstripp.

Lab Work

Panel 1:
A doctor stands next to a man in a hospital bed. The patient has a leg in a cast, a thermometer in his mouth, an ice pack on his head, and an IV in his arm.
Patient: Give it to me straight, doc. Am I gonna make it?

Panel 2:
The doctor looks worried and flips through a clipboard.
Doctor: Well, it's hard to say until the labs get back...

Panel 3:
Several Labrador dogs wearing scrubs and white coats rush into the room, barking. The Doctor and Patient look at them with a smile.
Doctor: Oh! Here they are now!
Patient: Awwww! Well hello there sweet lil' fluffers!

Panel 4:
A Labrador retriever in a white coat puts its paw on the Patient's arm comfortingly. It is rendered in a much more realistic art style than anything else. The Patient looks shocked, and the Doctor looks sad and does a small prayer.
Labrador: Mr. Smith? You have three days to live. I'm so sorry.

#ThrowBackThursday! "Self-Checkout", Originally posted Oct 9, 2013. Largely inspired by me working a retail job at the time and the many dumb "check out" jokes we would make. It was also my first attempt at an animated comic, so check the link for that! trueniverse.com/comicstripp/...

Panel 1:
A scene at a grocery store. A man stands with a full cart, waiting in line behind someone else at checkout.

Panel 2:
An employee opens a new lane, clicking the numbered sign on. The man notices this with surprise.
Employee: "I can check someone out over here!"

Panel 3:
Overhead view of the man wheeling his cart open to the new checkout lane.

Panel 4:
The employee waggles her eyebrows flirtatiously at the man as she begins to ring up his purchases.
Employee: "How YOU doin'?"
Man: "...Good."

Panel 5:
The man hears a "boop" off to the side and turns to look at the source.

Panel 6:
An older man is standing at Self Checkout, ringing up his purchase. He looks in a mirror, waggling his eyebrows flirtatiously at himself.

#ThrowbackThursday! I thought it'd be fun to start highlighting some of the older comics that I've never shared on this page. This was the very first comic I made back when Comicstripp was "Laughterhouse" waaay back in 2013. So yes, I did make this joke before EEAAO did it :P

A 16-panel comic from the webcomic "Comicstripp".

A tired-looking man stands at the register of a coffee shop.
Employee: "The usual?"
Man: "Nah. I need something to REALLY wake me up."
Employee: "Everything Bagel it is."

The man looks down at his bagel. The camera zooms into the bagel and into a poppyseed, which reveals infinite galaxies. Over the course of the comic, the camera gradually zooms into a galaxy, star, solar system, planet, country, city, and building, eventually returning to the man sitting and looking at his bagel in a recursive loop. In the final panel, the man looks shaken.
Man: "...I'm awake."
