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!

The VGR is always a fun place to pass the time at a con. But I can agree, Sunday is kind of a slow and boring day.
Yeah down time at cons is how I usually try video games I’m on the fence on buying, or just ask the vgr desk person for anything they think is not as popular as it should be. That is oddly how I discovered Katamari Damacy.
I kill a lot of my time at cons finding someplace out of the way I can watch the hall traffic and just enjoy the parade of costumes passing by.
I’m more wondering why people aren’t running around screaming, “Oh noes!” and preparing for the end times. Hearing the words “I’m so bored right now” from Sarah would be like a rattlesnake’s rattle, or a porcupine presenting it’s quills. If the situation doesn’t get resolved right quick, bad stuff is liable to happen to anyone in the immediate area. Not purposefully, probably – but boredom must be assuaged – and it may get hairy.
