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 currently have the newest car I have ever owned and it is 12 years old. I kind of feel called out. 🙂
….I don’t think I’ve ever owned a car less than 10 years old, though some just barely older. Had a few cars that were older than me…
My current vehicle is a 2007, so…
My 10+ year old car was pressed into service for a 5-hour drive with 4 members of our board. All of us, and our luggage, in a my Ford Escort- literally the cheapest car you could buy new from ford when I bought it.
The next year we rented a minivan instead. (We also were toting 5 people, but that was just the excuse to drop the money for the 2-day rental.)
Hey, it’s not MY fault Saturn went out of business for making good cars and making a lot of other car executives look bad, so that I can’t buy another one. And I’m not letting go of my 1998 Saturn any time soon because it still works so well if they WERE still in business I WOULD plan on buying another one.
Always wondered how it would feel not to have to work on an upcoming convention… actually it still feels pretty good! 🙂 Though I suppose if CaliFur gets a decent venue next year I may get sucked back into ConOps…
What’s this about lost spagetti privileges? Darned spagetti incidents.
It could be less that no one has a care less than 10 years old and more that no one really want to pick up Troy Harrington.
That was my interpretation, lol.
… have you seen the economy lately I’d be shocked if there ate half as many cars as board members
