Page 8-9 A double Splash! Because…why not!
I love double-splashes. I wanted a big heroic moment for Nightstik because he actually has very few of them in these stories. Enjoy my tens of readers!
Page 5 of Nightstik #7 “The Living Tentacle!”
This page went through quite a few drafts and bears little resemblance to the thumbnails I did for it, but it hits all the beats I laid out in my plot synopsis. Enjoy, my dozens of readers!
Page 2 of “The Living Tentacle!”
Page 2! The idea for this page actually started about 5 or 6 years ago in my drama class. The assignment was to reenact an event from your life. One of my students reenacted a slumber party where her friends were playing “Slender Man,” a since discarded bit of online fun. I shall now spend […]

Rumor has it that Ben Affleck ran into Christian Bale at a dry cleaners in LA shortly before filming of the much maligned Batman Vs. Superman film.

Page 14
This page isn’t all that different from its first inception wayyyyyyyy back in my Tumblr days. Another thing I did was to update Nightstik’s dialogue a bit. When I was first writing it, I was really trying to write a “serious” comic more in the vein of The Dark Knight Returns or The Crow. What […]
Page 13!
Hello! Here we have page 13 (formerly page 9) in the original iteration of this issue. This one is clearer, and obviously more readable, but there was a rough charm to the original that I tried to preserve as much as possible. Here it is! Cheers!
Page 9! Late!
This is another page that was not in the original number one. One of the things I wasn’t too keen on in the first first issue was what I call character stuff. Character stuff is where we see the hero doing every day ordinary things. Here, we see Nightstik building a model. Another bit of […]
