Hey kids, do you like the comics?
How ’bout holding an actual book of stories you’ve chosen in your own hands?
Well, I’m happy to announce the launch of a new site I’ve taken a small part in called Bento Comics, a place where you can create and order your own comic anthology books, with a growing archive of stories from some awesome creators! To read more about how Bento “rolls” (get it?? Cause it’s like sushi???) check out some of these writeups from Robot 6, Queeniechan.com, or Bento’s fabulous “About” page!
There will be some new On The Edge content over there, as well as other stuff from me, so be sure to check it out, sign up, and hang out in the forum (where I get to be a moderator-yayz)! Hope to see you there!

To kick off the occasion, Negs took some pics of himself with a book we ordered, and great time was had by all!

More pics can be seen on the Bento Forum!

There may not be nearly enough readers for this, but it looked like fun, and Negs was all up for it. Click here to ask Negs anything!
*Please don’t ask him actual therapy questions though… he’s not the best at giving humans advice…
Edit: There is now a widget on the right side where you can ask your burning questions as well!
Well, there’s bad news and there’s good news: The bad news, is that I’ve been laid off from my illustration job *sigh*. But what does that mean for you? Good News: There will be more On The Edge! That’s right, I’m going for 3 times a week starting today! We’ll see how it goes.
There is also a book in the works for the first 300 comics, unfortunately, being Canadian, I have to fill out some fancy American tax forms before I can sell them. In the meantime there might be some kind of contest for a free, sketched in copy!
A new piece of fan art is in the gallery, from my friend, animator Bianca Siercke. Check out her blog of awesomeness!
In other news, all the new comics that have been posted so far are completely paperless! I am harnessing the power of my Cintiq to save time and hoping to achieve the same quality. Yay for technology!
I am also starting to toy with the idea of putting together some books of all the comic strips. Trying to figure out sizing and paper and all that fun stuff. Would anyone even buy a book if I made them? Feel free to let me know what you think! I love your comments, keep ‘em coming!
