Hey there! Sorry there haven’t been any new comics this week. I am trying to settle into a new work-life rhythm here, but it’s taking a while, and my brain is not cooperating. Thanks for your patience.
I do want to take a moment to thank my supporters on Patreon. Thanks to their support, I’ve been able to donate $967.14 to organizations providing COVID-19 relief. I will be continuing to donate my Patreon earnings every month for the duration of this crisis. Read more here.
Another day of global pandemic filler, with some useful quotes for you to practice while self-isolating! (Note: I didn’t notice they were ALL from history plays until I finished drawing the comic. I guess you can tell what my favorite genre is…)
Don’t be an idiot like Falstaff. Stay away from Eastcheap and the Boar’s Head. Stay home. And while you’re staying home….
This Saturday I'm giving a virtual Bard Talk on Zoom courtesy of the Shakespeare Center of LA! (Unlike many events, this one was always supposed to be a virtual webinar, so nothing has changed!) You should all register and come see me talk awkwardly at my webcam and do some live drawing. Don't pretend you have something more important to do... Register for the talk here.
Hey. So, I was fulling intending for A Stick-Figure Hamlet to be back up and running this week, but I’ve been so distracted/preoccupied/anxious/stressed out these past two weeks that I completely lost the ability to concentrate on my work. I’m hoping my brain will settle down soon, but for now, here’s some topical filler.
Note: I can’t take credit for coming up with “Verona crisis”. I don’t know who originated that, unfortunately; it’s been going around my Shakespeare circles like wildfire lately.
Some more filler coming up on Thursday. Stay safe, stay inside, stay healthy everyone.
A Stick-Figure Hamlet returns next week! Until then, here’s a short video of me drawing a tiny Hamlet in my notebook.
Hey! So, I’m still a bit o’erwhelmed, because my week “off” that I was supposed to use to get caught up on Life ended up being used to prepare for and freak out about our current pandemic, which has finally hit my corner of the globe. So, I’ve thrown together a couple filler items to keep us going for another week before I get back to A Stick-Figure Hamlet, starting with a remastered version of The Fretful Porpentine!
I will never get tired of the fretful porpentine.
It’s the Ides of March! Make sure to take all proper precautions to protect yourself and others.

As we leave the play-within-a-play, let’s take a closer look at Elsinore’s favorite thespian.

I’m taking next week off to get caught up with Life, but Hamlet will resume the week after that! It’s gonna be CLOSET TIME soon!
