Here’s a quick glimpse of good ol’ Al in next week’s issue. Out intrepid wizard is reacting to the revelation we just learned:
Check out the full comic, next Tuesday!
Would you look at that? I actually did something with one of my random sketches! Earlier this week I posted a quick sketch of cartoon Algerbane. I added some inks and scanned it into Photoshop. The pen I used was pretty bad, so the lines are sloppy (but it’s a sketch, get off my back!).
All in all, I’m not in love with the style. I want my cartoon stuff to have a Brian Lee O’Malley or Tyson Hesse feel to it. Super fun and hysterical. So I’m still working on it.
A new week is here, so to celebrate I’m giving you more artwork to enjoy. Here is another piece of Algerbane in his Year 2 duds. Click the thumbie for a bigger version.
I’ll post a colored version once it’s ready.
For today’s post I give you some artwork to gaze upon. Here is a preliminary sketch of Algerbane. This won’t be in an upcoming comic, but the finished piece will go up soon either here or on my tumblr.
This is a big deal folks. I’m giving ya a sneak peak at Al’s new duds for the 2nd year of the comic. The style is a bit more simplified than what it is normally in the comic–but you’ll get the idea. It goes without saying that big new things will be going on in the upcoming year (Observant readers will notice something very interesting in the picture!).

Also new for Year 2: he’s going to be speaking in a British accent. Up until now it was more Welsh. Now, this may not be the final design for his clothes–and it will be a while until we actually see them on him. Most likely, you’ll forget you’ve seen this by the time they show up in the comic, unless of course you bookmark this post. But why would you do that, weirdo?
Anyway… keep your browsers tuned for Tuesday. Year 1 is getting mind-numbingly intense. Just 3 more issues until the mighty finale!
P.S: a more finished version of Al, including background and color highlights, will be posted soon!
