Throwback: My First Published Comic

In 2006, Julia Wertz put together a mini comic to sell along with her Fart Party collections at that year’s Alternative Press Expo. A few months earlier she had put a call out for submissions, so I sketched something up - very poorly - and sent it off.

So my first comic was published by Julia Wertz, in a book alongside Laura Park, Peter Bagge and James Kochalka, among others. Naturally, after that I retired.

I didn’t officially release a comic again until I started Mandatory Roller Coaster in 2011.



The comic in question. Text reads:

First Panel:

“How many kids with ADD does it take to screw in a light bulb?”

“I don’t know, how many?”



Second Panel:

“LET’S GO RIDE BIKES!!!”

“HA HA HA!”



Third Panel:

“Oh man, I’m drunk.”



I didn’t say it was a good comic.
