This was one of the first full page strips I plotted out when developing the comic. It was interesting getting here. There are a few more episodes to finish out this arc then it is onwards to a simple little action yarn.

Lunch Room Antics. A quickie comic .. was it good for you? Since I'm skipping through things fairly quickly I need to establish relationships in a fast and dirty way. Before Mable and Sarah meet again in story I had to set their previous dealings.

This is another comic that I hope to go back to and expand. I want to build a pivotal story around Mable and Sarah becoming unfriends to back up this generalized comic.

Another Cardboard creation. Things are moving along. I think this is the last of the old set of strips I had for this. I will be making more in the future in this rough style. It is very liberating to work with throw away materials.

Mid-Week Comic. One of the first set of cardboard drawings I did when fiddling with comic ideas. I decided to use this one and another in this arc because I'm lazy. It does fit into the false fourth wall motif I'm trying to build. I'm a clever fellow, capitalizing on my poor work ethic.

It was intended that Q2 and Sarah be talking on the phone, hence the electric slash in the first frame, but I forgot to draw the handsets.

Happy Mother's Day. Another holiday sneaks in without a topical comic. With a mother like Shub there is plenty of material for a good Mother's Day romp, but instead there is this comic that doesn't look too great.

It was my intent from the start not to color anything except the visual thought balloons. It was not my intent to have the line art look so sloppy.

This starts one of the first little arcs I started working on when I was first putting the comic together so it is nice to finally get to it..

Looking for Artists

I decided over the last couple of days that I do not have the time to get comics out as quickly as I would like. I can make the sparse weekly schedule I've set, but it won't get story points done when they need to be done. I have a few things that I would like to get completed by certain dates in the comic.

I'm looking for people to either draw individual comics or do some small story arcs. The artist will work from a blue pencil rough and a script. I'm looking for a style that would be close to what I have up, but this isn't required. Anything that isn't manga or overly cartoony would be fine. I'm concerned most with flow of action and atmosphere. I plan on still making completed comics.

With a little ramp-up time I can keep pace with a 7 day a week writing schedule and I might consider working with a few artists at once.

There will be some very adult situations, and graphic detail. Not much of it has shown to date, but it will be coming. Anybody who is interested can email me at newsarray-at-gmail.com. Link me or send a sample of work, and how much you would be willing to do. I'm interested to work with a variety of artists and explore different styles. I can write and block to suit most sorts of page formats.

Professor R'lyeh is introduced to his honors Ancient Society class at university. This happens to be one of the first bits I drew when fooling around with this comic idea. My prefered medium was indelible marker on cardboard.
