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 thought there would be more intensity. But I argue with the guy in the black fedora, when you have girls, why would you want to leave.
Grin – back when my kid was in middleschool, the D&D club didn’t want her to join for some reason. She mentioned this to the gamers at the next con she attended. The universal reaction of the male gamers present “Are they NUTS?”
You guys wanna join Bork Con staff?
We’ve got HATS.
you only really need to run screaming from con staff when the con is only just around the corner. mine cruise parties and uni halls like old-timey royal navy officers trying to impress unsuspecting (and us suspecting) hapless souls.
Interested in the third guy… because he seems to have a clue, and moreso as looks kinda familiar…
I literally tried to make those three look like the most stereotypical three geek dudes I could think of.
I definitely see elements of myself in all three.
*shudder*
My jeans are black and I currently have a mustache. Elsewise, is like you worked off a picture. Guess I fit the ‘generic geek’ look. XD
