Green, scantily clad sci fi lady, why would that scare the pants off him? Not a clue.

A new art has appeared! Adventure Time is one of my favorite shows. It’s one of those things that’s extremely fun and sometimes punches you in your gut with feels.

I wonder what it was that made the Lord of Evil abandon Marceline to Ooo by herself at such a young age. Did he not care, or perhaps he was protecting her from some other threat we don’t know of. Maybe one day we’ll know.

Wyliman Jackenapes!

Earlier last month Mario of Wyliman fame put a call out for some guest comics. At the eleventh hour, I got some time to do my own entry. I had this idea of doing the characters as apes based on what DC and Marvel did. Not to be outdone by those two, I decided to do a story that could probably take place in the normal Wyliman Universe without any changes. Go ahead and read to your gorilla heart’s content!

Also, guys, read Balls! It’s good for what ails ya! If what ails ya is burly girls and their cat things. –> http://comicaboutballs.com/

Posey you should really warn a bear (and Mac) about your sexy ambush. Lest they see you in your cosplay undies.

As part of our yearly Christmas swap, Jason came up with this wonderful comic. After two years of searching, they may have found a place! I’d keep the deposit on that one guys..

There’s A Tingle In My Pants

I had to draw this one. There was no other recourse. Hey, it’s been a while.

Wait for it..

I would say that this is on time, but the original end date for Same Apartment was Halloween. That makes the final arc the longest one of them all. I learned a lot from Same Apartment. When I first started work on it I was still working on the Super Mario Bros comics and each one would take me about a month to do. At my best on this comic, I got down to two updates a week. I told myself that this is just a learning experience and if it were ever no fun to do, then I’d stop. I had some weeks where it was a hassle, but then at the end it was nice to read that joke. I’m glad you guys stuck with me for this long.

My biggest concern on this was to leave it open ended. I didn’t want to have them move away, or separate or something that would force me to do an arc of them getting back together if I ever wanted to do more Same Apartment. When I thought about the destruction of the house, I thought that hey, maybe they can end up in Mac’s tiny apartment. And so, Same Apartment ended just how it started. By breaking the fourth wall in a stupid way.

In a way, I feel like it’s the end of the school year. Not high school or college, but like it felt at the end of ninth or tenth grade. Sure it feels like I’m leaving this place, but soon, sooner than I’d like probably, I’ll be right back in this stupid desk.

It’s been too long. Scratch that. A whole month between comics is waaaaaayyy too long. But here are the final days of Same Apartment. The reason I’ve been slacking so is that I went north to meet someone very special in the beginning of the month. I had a great time and a couple of weeks ago was the earliest I could get back to the comic. Those post vacation blues sure can kill your motivation, so with a little effort, I got past it back to my normal (slow but not MONTH long) schedule for the last two.

Now who here really thought I was going to kill Posey raise your hands. Those of you with your hands raised hate joy. The fish on the other hand (affectionately referred to as the Same Aquarium) weren’t so lucky. RIP fish. John (affectionately referred to as the Official Writer of Same Apartment) wrote out this long eulogy for the fish and I hid it behind Mort and Mac. Sorry John (not really, no word bubbles to have to worry about.. tee hee).

All this destruction is killing my working time on these comics. But weirdly enough, I’m not getting sick of the arc yet. Usually I’m getting arc fatigue at this point.

I know it’s just a model, but my heart broke a little bit to add the Enterprise D in panel three. Originally the word bubble was up there but the bubble was a little too small. I thought it would add a little more to show that this part came from Mort’s room (along with his uncle’s photo first seen here). The Next Generation’s Enterprise D was always my favorite incarnation of the ship, which is why I had Posey give it to him in the first place, and to have it lying in the dirt was ripping my fanboy heart out.

The only other really interesting bit is that I forgot that Mort lost his glasses for one panel. I’m sure you can figure out which one.
