About Me

I'm not an artist, but I'm a dude who likes to draw. I also like comics, and I am egomaniacal, so all of this works out for me because I draw a comic about myself called .
Here is my internet presence!

    Egomaniac: Sharp Dressed Man

    So, it took two trips, but I picked out a pair of glasses I liked. See, the first ones were nice and all, but just not "me." So I returned them for the pair you see in the comic. Frames on top, fishin...

    Egomaniac: The Power of Love

    The size on this one is a bit strange, I know. I tried it the other way, and the first panel was impossible to read. And I don’t like having to scroll to the right to read a comic. So this way, ...

    Egomaniac: Season of the Shark

    Yeah, so apparently I’ve decided to not post these in the order I drew them. I wrote this during Shark Week on Discovery, which is long since passed. Should give you some idea how long I was sit...

    Egomaniac: Introduction

    CD/MP3 collection

    So, I went through all my cds and made sure I had every single one ripped to my hard drive. While I was doing that, I made a list of every cd I own and put it on my iPod as a note, so I don't accident...

    An update? I call shenanigans. Plus, my REAL journal address.

    Ok, not really a true update. Just an "I haven't forgotten about this journal" update so it doesn't look like I'm dead. I actually even updated things on my profile this time around. Anyhow, I have...

    Wizard World 2005 (Picture heavy)
