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 trade early morning one man(woman lol) staffing for getting to go to sleep before midnight xD Granted i miss all the “fun” stuff but my department head isn’t mean enough to keep me from 6am to 3am lol I’m pretty much the only person outside from 7am to doors opening Friday and Saturday corralling lines, making sure artist ally people get in and answer questions for at least 2 hours
Is it because Sarah’s the newest staffer, or because she can outrun the stench?
Because she’s the newest.
You can’t outrun that odor.
You can outrun the worst of it… but then you’re gasping for breath in the rest of it, and end up worse off.
Only time I ever went in to a dance was AI 2008. More or less because I was trashed out of my gorge.
But my GOD, that does not leave your nose.
I hope Sarah kicks Veronica’s ass after the con. She probably could, she’s probably secretly a badass and know many ways to kick one’s ass and make them pay.big time. She probably knows a little of every martial arts including boxing, jujitsu, tae kwon do, karate, Some wrestling, grappling. And only because it was in her blocked schedule growing up since she probably had Baby Boomer parents who did that kind of thing with their kids.
Anyways to get back on topic, I hope she kicks Veronica’s ass after this con.
Sarah is not skilled in any martial arts. Whatsoever. No idea why you’d think that.
She is a very good soccer player though.
She kind of gives me an idea that she can kick someone’s ass.
Well she’ll kick Veronica in the shin
Worked a winter con with a all-weekend Battletech room with minimal ventilation and closed doors. Made “dance stink” seem like roses somewhere around late afternoon Saturday. You could almost see it roll out when the door opened…
