Giant Space Lizard is coming…

Fun Junk: June 2nd, 2008
giant-space-lizard-is-coming

The Giant Space Lizard website finally has a “real” host and ComicPress on it. Before the end of June I hope to begin posting the first “Wagner” comic I drew in Adobe Illustrator about a year ago. It was written by Chaerb and maybe once this runs he’ll write the second half of [...]


Web access in Hotlanta

web-access-in-hotlanta

Well despite several scheduling errors my numerous phone calls paid off and I finally have cable+internet+phone here in Atlanta.  So now the ladies totally have a home phone number…they can ignore…in addition to my cell and e-mail…if there were any ladies…changing topic…
Thanks to copious help from Chaerb this website is entirely functional.  Just some little [...]


So3K Update! (Plus one other thing)

Fun Junk: July 7th, 2008
so3k-update-plus-one-other-thing

For those one or two people on the internet who were waiting for Chaerb to write more Rob Kestler…well, he hasn’t. But to fill the void, even just a little bit, another episode of The Saga of Three Kings (mature content warning) has been added to Chad’s Utopia. Facts about Kestler’s childhood are [...]


Dog blogs and internet poets

dog-blogs-and-internet-poets

Since I’m not really a blogger and Chaerb only ever blogged as a dog living in St. Cloud this website currently has a trail of old posts on it, and I don’t like it (aesthetically).  So I’m reducing it to the most recent 2 posts.  This might take me out of the search engines’ favor.  [...]


Delicious

Fun Junk: August 14th, 2008
delicious

You’re spelling BOXCAR wrong.  Prawn are a delicious relative of shrimp.  Yet they terrify people who have never seen an ocean like Chaerb.  I assume.  And thanks also for preventing the little kids with web blocking software from seeing our utterly tame 80’s sci-fi based humor.


Censorship powers activate!

Fun Junk: August 18th, 2008
censorship-powers-activate

I’ve decided to take the Homestar Runner-esqe high road and censor my own website down to a certain level.  This level would probably be the equivalent of the movie rating of PG-13.  You know what the 13 means - extra violence!  The violence is pretty much unavoidable given every idea for Space Adventures that has [...]


Post-Cancellation level yet?

Fun Junk: August 26th, 2008
post-cancellation-level-yet

Looking at this week’s comic it’s clear I had finally figured out how to use Adobe Illustrator by this point, especially if compared to the first attempt.  The sweat on medical student Koko’s brow and having the right number of joints in characters’ legs bring this week’s offering up to “Tolerable” on my own personal [...]


High five!

Fun Junk: September 10th, 2008
high-five

This week’s comic, as a script that Chaerb wrote, contained a description of the action that was something like “Koko and Jim struggle in vain to high five until they realize that they are tied up”.  Attempting to make that even slightly evident was one of the more fun parts of drawing this series.
There are [...]


Finally, something with a lizard on “Giant Space Lizard”

I located the following sketch (scrawled with a ballpoint pen on a piece of printer paper no less) and decided to post it:

This is of a Giant Space Lizard, possibly Vagrond, in the style that’s planned for Space Adventures.  I think I drew it last summer when I should have been working.  Clap!


Brain science podcast

Dr. Shella Keilholz (my professor adviser at Georgia Tech/Emory) did a panel on fMRI brain imaging at Dragon Con (a local sci-fi convention in Atlanta).  For which she was teased mercilessly by her students.  However she did later forward us the following links:

If you’re not someone in my immediate circle of family, friends and current and former co-workers, and you managed to find this site, good for you! This site will continue to be updated every Saturday, but take note of the following highly important information (note: information is only highly important in context of this site, [...]


Found a good comic

Fun Junk: October 12th, 2008
found-a-good-comic

Recently I’ve been playing a game where I randomly click on Project Wonderful and Oh No Robot comic links to see if I can find a new comic that (a) I have never heard of before and (b) is worth reading regularly.  I did find one last week, and realized that it was its second [...]


Remarks retroactively added

remarks-retroactively-added

I’ve gone back and added retroactive commentary to some of the Space Adventures comics that have been posted in a process known as “retcomming”.   Also some of the scheduled comics now have remarks as well.  Will Chaerb follow my lead?  Only time, and not the RSS feed as we’re adding these remarks to the [...]


Found with my own two eyes (plus the 3rd one implanted on my forehead)

Fun Junk: November 16th, 2008
found-with-my-own-two-eyes-plus-the-3rd-one-implanted-on-my-forehead

I was a big “Calvin & Hobbes” fan when it was running, but if I were to make a Flashimation parody of Bill Watterson it would probably go exactly like this Evil Josh & Billy episode …  except with more dinosaurs.
(Here is a link to the main Evil Josh & Billy website as they don’t [...]


We have been discovered (by spambots)

Fun Junk: November 22nd, 2008
we-have-been-discovered-by-spambots

Judging from the 18 comments of utter gibberish I just deleted, this website is now sufficiently indexed on the interweb to attract spambots looking to bring people to websites with keywords “lizards”, “sketches” and “chair”.  (I guess our transcriptions were pretty explicit about what people were sitting in.)  Does this reflect any human audience?  Probably [...]


So3K Update!

Fun Junk: December 14th, 2008
so3k-update

I have just written the sixth chapter of Rob Kestler in “The Saga of the Three Kings”.  (Warning: Semi-gratuitous f-bombage.)  The exciting action that’s been present so far in this series was all ignored to instead tell a little story about men, women, and the kinds of relationships they have.


The Return of the Wagner

Fun Junk: December 31st, 2008
the-return-of-the-wagner

As the current chapter of Vagrond’s Space Adventures has come to a close, it’s time for a change.  Now that the Supreme Court has allowed waterboarding I’ve been able to get Chaerb to write the continuation to Jim Wagner in Planetoid of the Simians.  Wagner comics will return starting January 3rd.  To celebrate, here’s a [...]
