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!

when reality get to real it’s time for a grand delusion
There’s a bar in Eau Claire, WI that serves a drink called that…
“Literal Nazis”… o the delusions…
Steve Bannon is in the administration.
Steve Bannon describes himself as a member of the Alt Right.
Alt Right is literally a euphemism created by Nazis to describe themselves. Bannon is aware of this.
As of tomorrow, there is a self described Nazi in the White House.
My personal experience with “alt-Right” is a term Liberals use to lump conservatives in with Nazis. Conservatives as haters and Nazis is a time-honored liberal accusation that has been in circulation since 1984 and Reagan.
Dude… Alt Right is literally a term created by self procliamed Neo-Nazi Richard Spencer. It’s their word, not “liberal’s.”
Liberals like me just call them what they are: Nazis.
And yes, that term has been diluted by people over using it from all political sides, but that doesn’t change the fact that their are literal Nazis still in America, and Alt Right is the term they made up for themselves.
(I really don’t want to keep going on with this — just because I have a degree in Political Science doesn’t mean I want to turn this into a political discussion — but if you don’t think that three LGBTQIA+ women wouldn’t be concerned with what’s happening in American politics right now… then you don’t get out much)
‘Human Tire Fire’…. simple, yet accurate. I like it.
…the phrase, not who it refers to. No liking there.
