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 did that once, where I slept in between the space between the walls.
At least you had walls. 😀 What about all these people sleeping across on row of circle cambered chairs? 😀
I don’t know honestly cause I have never been in that situation and I really don’t have a joke for that either. I’ll let someone else take this one on.
I always slept under the desk when doing things with the church groups. it meant I never got stepped on…
“Church groups” reminds me of a time when we did an expedition with out scouting group, and stayed at a vicarage, which turned out to be “double-booked”. We ended up with *lots* of adolescents in one room. (Don’t remember the exact number — something around 15 I guess?) Most of us were sleeping on a row of benches put side to side. I ended up at the edge of the row, and literally had the width of one bench (like 15 inches or so) available to me. I slept reasonably well though, and didn’t fall off…
(Also, it was better than the next year, when it turned out the vicarage wasn’t available at all, and we ended up homeless sleeping on the benches at the train station platforms… We were damn lucky it didn’t rain.)
I vaugely recall a church group thing where was 4 of us in a room with 2 single beds (slightly larger than cots). Sleeping on the floor was likely more comfortable.
