One year ago, on April 16th 2024, the first page of Peregrine Lake went online. One year since we first met Bev as she drove through a snow storm and said the exact thing most of us have said in that scenario.
It took so long for Peregrine Lake to get off the ground. I first announced it back in December of 2019, and originally I was going to draw it. And then the world fell apart, and I found myself with zero ability to draw it anymore. I kept kicking the idea around, wanting to move it forward when in 2023 I jokingly suggested to my friend Ethan that they could draw the comic for me.
And they said yes, they'd love to, and I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth.
We then spent almost a year regularly meeting, talking about my plans for the plots, the world, the characters, and all the things that would have otherwise just lived in my head. I started scripting comics, and Ethan got to work on concept art. And for most of 2023 we planned and got ready, and we hit the ground running in 2024.
And now we're here. Honestly, I love everything we've put out over the last year. Ethan's art is incredible, and tells the story in a way that I'm not sure mine would have. I love this comic, I love that you all are reading it, and I'm excited to show you what's coming next.
Because we've only just scratched the surface on how weird this is going to get.
On April 26th I'm going to be at Concinnity in Milwaukee, WI! Stop on by and say hi if you're in town!

I <3 you for the Hartnell/Troughton joke!
It’s not the first time we’ve seen those doors — Tara used to live in that dorm (http://www.unconventional-comic.com/2011/03/relative-maturity/). All the dorms on the Clearwater University campus share their names with Doctors, it’s just that we’ve only seen one other building — the two towered Baker Hall (http://www.unconventional-comic.com/2011/05/calling-seat/) — you’ll have to trust me on the second tower existing outside of frame — it’s based on a layout I’ve seen on at least four different Wisconsin campuses.
I that’s the first time I saw you draw a stick character in a tank top.
Next I don’t think those guys will ever be taken seriously on a College campus that has like I don’t know, maybe thousands of different students going around the place and probably most of them don’t care about one club that’s probably small compared to some others like maybe a sports club perhaps there’s a Rugby team that has more attention than those guys.
Actually, there have been several background characters in tank tops, you just have to look for them. Veronica and Megan also wear one sometimes, but it’s not as noticeable because they either wear an overshirt or jacket as well. Circa 2002 flashback Lynn also wears one too, just also layered with the fishnet shirt.
But that’s just it, they were covered so i couldn’t tell it if it was tank top or not. I know you tell me the stick characters are meant to interpreted as real human beings with normal bodies. But it’s kind of hard to see stick character were nor clothes when their stick bodies have no human like features such as the women not having actual breasts present but more of a shape in the clothing to let us the readers know they are there. It’s just one of the things makes it challenging to interpret at times.
Now I’m not asking for that stuff nor do I really want to that. I’m just saying a Tank top without covering looks kind of interesting on stick female when their isn’t real skin present. But I digress. I guess it’s the first time I’ve seen a tank top present without a cover.
Okay, this would be the point where I’d call the police about harassment. These guys followed Ruth to work and are exhibiting behavior that can be seen as irrational and possibly threatening.
….these guys obviously aren’t the brightest bulbs in the pack… a protest of this nature won’t do anything. The one with power would be the academic advisor, who as I recall, Ruth has already spoken to.
