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 think a T-Rex at an Anime con might suffer from olfactory overload…
Not that Max or Veronica should be heroes, but they could tripped that dude the 2 of them could have held him down til the police come.
You say that, but Max has a strong instinct to not get stabbed.
True true. but they could have done a surprise attack. Oh well it’s funnier this way. But the dude is probably on drugs which supposed the IRL guy was on when he did this at No brand this year.
You know you should never ever try anything even remotely heroic against person with weapon, don’t you? Every police(wo)man will tell you that. Cops will always tell you to never try to stop or disarm any attacker unless s/he is going to harm you etc. and it is the last option. You are supposed to be good citizen and keep yourself as safe as possible. If you try something like you just suggested it is the quickest way to become one more corpse in their day and no one wants that. No one. As is said, there are full cemeteries of heroes and their only witness is the grass growing from their bones. (Really, did you just suggest to ground wild running person with knife in hand? By two people untrained in armed combat? Battling otaku lines doesn’t count for this. 😛 )
Yeah, this is what I was trying to get at.
Not to mention, the police are literally right there. Max and Veronica playing hero would actually be more likely to get the two of them hurt, and get in the way of the cops doing their job.
Yeah, my instinct is to get in the guys way… how I’ve managed to avoid living this long without serious injury is a mystery.
