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!

Take a year off? Then fund raiser the hell out of the Con?
This never would have happened under Max ;p
this happened cause the money guy who worked under Max rand off with the funds to vegas
Lesee…loans are very unlikely. Nobody is independently wealthy or knows someone with enough income to support the con.
Crowdfunding seems a possible answer. A kickstarter is a definite possibility. The group is quirky and interesting enough that they could provide continuing content to make a Pateron conceivably work (and get feedback from a limited selection of Bork Con fans as a guide for the next con). I don’t know how many people would actually support the con in either venue, but there wouldn’t be much harm in hanging out the shingle. There’s a lot of publicity they’d have to do to have any real chance of success however.
Terrence could present a huge issue to crowdfunding. He could surface with a lot of negative stories about his treatment.
On the other hand, people who have met Terrance might help out just to spite him.
Do we know Terrence is not rich, I could see him buying the con out of spite being the next big story.
