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!

Nah, he just came across as a straight asshole to me. And if I recall right, he did refer to Lynn as “someone in charge” the first time we saw him when she brought those security guards along. My guess is some people thought the “someone in charge” line referred to hotel security, rather than Lynn.
And in this case, he does say “him or her” when he asks for the person in charge, instead of assuming the person is male.
I actually didn’t get that with this guy. I mean, you laid it on thick with the autistic kid last arc, but this guy’s straight out of the dealer’s room. Having had to deal with four or five guys like this, you realize it’s not about you at all. He’s just a nutter with an axe to grind.
“Autistic kid?”
None of the antagonists you could be referring to were intended to be anything other than neurotypical. Maggie, the (I guess now former) VGR head for Bork Con is the only character intentionally canonically written to be on the spectrum.
If it was meant as an insult, that has to stop.
Hey, thank you for this!
Love the chair’s (?) response, calmly call his bluff.
Heck, at this point in the con, offer to give him his table money back if he has to vacate the table. There would be another local artist who would love to fill in a last minute spot.
Might not be a back up depending on the size of the Con, but certainly an option to look into. Worse to worse, blank spots happen, someone can’t show up last minute, or can’t show until late.
We can regularly fill our Dealers Room vacancies with ready locals and/or Artists Alley people, or let people with a half-table expand into the space. Half-priced tables or upgrades go far to filling space.
Will we find out what this dude’s actual problem is or will it be like Terrence (?) where he’s a jerk who’s just a jerk?
Do love that the chair called his bluff. Will remember that in the future 🙂
I suspect that he’s the way he is because his methods tend to work.
…or at least they used to…
Ruth may have competition…
Twits happen – and when they volunteer to go away, by all means wave byebye! 🙂
