100th Post!!

Woo! 100th blogpost! Let's start this thing off with a bang! So for the last couple of months I have been working on a little comic just for fun especially for this occasion. It has been the most fun time I've had drawing in a long time. Doing this has inspired me to do more, so expect more of these little things to come, except not normally this long. This took a ridiculous amount of time, considering I'm a busy guy again.

Anyway, this thing is in no way, shape, or form, supposed to be serious. I'm not making some political statement, I just thought it might be a little humorous. It's also pretty random. I hope you enjoy it. You're probably going to have to click on them to get a better look. I don't have the proper software at this time to fix them up. So for now, this is as good as it gets.


I'm sure I'm going to need to explain some things about that comic, but moving on!

I've been taking a trip down memory lane and reading all of my old blogposts. It's actually a ton of fun. I thought I'd highlight a few things while I was at it.
