Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.7

By page 7 I am stuck with a buzz cut for the duration of, lol. One page to go, then back to Dinosaurs!

Edit: 1/19/25 grammars.

Ghost Skater intro

Third in our ongoing series of character intros is the Ghost Skater! Third, you ask? William and I are alternating with these, first was Feral, and second was an original character of William’s from 2004 named 2025-01-06 20:01:33 +0000 UTC View Post

PBC pg.7 sneak peek

Researching this panel made me very sad. This doctor was a leading aids researcher who had written a book about the virus and how it could not mutate around a triple drug therapy… I was very pleased to end up in his care. I wanted to do more than just draw him from memory, but dig as I might, I couldn’t find anything bett...

December sticker: Dong set 1, 3rd of 3 (real peen).

So third in each Dong set will be a rendering of a real person’s Johnson. I’m going to let y’all guess who this is, and I will give hints as needed. The first hint is: porn star.

Edit: more clues. Colt Studio model. Not Al Parker. Not Tom Chase. Not Ken Ryker. Not Brad Patton. Not Dick Huge. Not Bill Eld. Also, no...

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.6

I don’t talk about it much, or even think about it anymore… but that last panel defined my existence for what felt like forever, but was probably less than a year. It was rough. The volume of inert material in medications back then, plus the sheer amount of pills… meant your body was constantly trying to expel matter it...

PBC pg.6 sneak peek

Happy Holidays! lol.

I was planning on posting the December sticker today, but it isn’t quite finished yet. Perhaps a Boxing Day gift for y’all, whatever that is.

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.5

Happy Winter Solstice, Droogies!

5 pages in! I just finished inking all of the pages, so it’s mainly just coloring and whatever tweaking I want to do.

Thanks for following along.

Edit: 1/19/25 grammar, color, tattoos added.

PBC pg.5 sneak peek

Hey I wasn’t lying when I said that this is the most personal piece I’ve done.

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.4

It’s funny, I had made a decision with the last autobiographical story I did a few months ago to not include my own tattoos in the artwork… I get tired of drawing all of them after a while. But of course then this piece comes along and has me paying attention to all my different haircuts over the years, and piercings as w...

PBC pg.4 sneak peek

Some of these panels are really fun to draw.

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.3

Have to work food into this story in the food anthology!

I can get really torn up over suffering and injustice, to the point where I can’t function. Once Dan, the boyfriend pictured here, asked me pointedly why I was depressed so much, and the best answer I could come up with at the time was that the world/humanity is...

PBC pg.3 sneak peek

I am a sensitive one, if you know me well, you know that about me.

This is at least the third time I am visually referencing Lichtenstein. I probably wouldn’t do it if Thrasher hadn’t made a gay skateboard tee shirt referencing the girl crying about her boyfriend, I have had that shirt twice and wore it out. Maybe ...

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.2

Hey look at 24 year old me. Not quite a twink. Some kinda bohemian skate punk, I always felt like I looked like a young lesbian. I can’t believe I wore a dumb vest, but at least it was a shiny deep blue. Occasionally without an undershirt, lol. I loved those cut-off pin stripe shorts though. I wore those until they fell apa...

World AIDS Day/ PBC pg.2 bonus sneak peek

I hadn’t planned on a second sneak peek for page 2, I wanted to get it done and posted, but I also wanted to mark World AIDS Day today, as I am writing so specifically about it in this project. If I had realized it was coming up I would have done something like a drawing in tribute of some of my friends I lost, such as the...

PBC pg.2 sneak peek

It’s fun drawing myself with varied looks like my mohawks and such. Once upon a time someone commented on a review of Hard to Swallow that they hated how when the artists draw themselves better looking than they are in reality. I mentally wrestle with this anonymous person every time I draw myself since, wondering just how ...

Peanut Butter Cocktail pg.1

Hey so, here we go!

Get ready for a parade of my haircuts over the years, lol. I think someday I may do a one-pager about the day I found I was anemic. It was a pretty pivotal moment in my late teens.

Bonus points for identifying all of the miniatures on the table in panel 3!

I had been asked not long ago by...

Dogspunk #0 digital download!

Hey all, we just put this comic in our store as a digital download!

Also, I want to give it to y’all for free to show my gratitude. Send me your email address to dave@dogspunk.com and I will add you as havi...

PBC pg.1 sneak peek

I enjoyed designing a wolf character who doesn’t resemble Feral. Also, I enjoy drawing cute. I think using these two fun characters is making this heavy subject a little easier to work with.

Character sketches- PBC

I’m working on this piece for an anthology and have permission to post it here… I will have a page (and a preview panel) soon, but here’s some characters and the thumbs for the story… I haven’t posted thumbs before, I hope they’re interesting. You might not get much out of them without the script, but here it is. ...

Oni/Geisha tattoo design

Here’s a design I worked out for a client. He originally wanted a Geisha with an Oni mask, but I suggested flipping it and he agreed.

Slumberland pg.2

Hot take: genocide bad.

I included page 1 which is the dream referenced in the first panel of page 2. I did the pencils in 2004, and inked it a couple of weeks ago.

It’s crazy making that we have to say this. But the proper response is screaming at the top of your lungs WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING

I trul...

November Sticker- Dong set 1, #2

Frankenpeen!

I believe this is how I will do each Dong set: 1 OC (original character, like Feral, Ghost Skater, etc.al.), 1 monster/popular culture (Frankenstein, Xenomorph, et.al.), 1 real person (porn star, or just otherwise realistic drawing from a photo of an actual penis).

Note: Patreon’s terms of servic...

Tony Todd -rest in peace-

We just learned that the amazing actor best known for his role as Candyman has died. Personally, I had seen him in 3 great roles in Star Trek, decades before I ever saw Candyman. I drew him here as Kurn, Worf’s brother. Seeing his first appearance, I asked myself “who is this guy?”… even under the Klingon makeup he st...

Feral intro (promotional)

I feel like I am behind on everything, because it’s been difficult to focus lately.

William and I are both celebrating the 20 year anniversary of our first books, and decided to start focusing on a single character each month going forward, and promoting them on our socials. We chose Feral for the first…...

Slumberland pg.2 sneak peek

One more page of this. I feel quite strongly on this subject and have to speak my mind on it, it’s all I can do.

I am keeping it to two pages, though it could easily be more, given the subject.

I have had a couple of very depressing days researching facts, collecting reference photos. This is a composite drawi...

Slumberland pg.1

I drew this in my sketchbook in 2004 and inked it over the past few days. Page 2 coming soon! There’s obviously more to it and I would talk here about what sparked this, but the next page will do so and also tie it to the world today.

Sweaty

We watched all the Universal Frankenstein movies this month (my first time) and wove in the Wolf-man films (my second time, William’s first) since the second fits into the Frankenstein timeline. The continuity of this shared universe is actually pretty impressive.

Anyway, the Wolf-man movies aren’t that ...

Dogspunk in Slumberland sneak peek

I’m finishing up a one-pager I drew in 2004 , and adding an update page afterwards because it is more relevant than when I first drew it, sadly.

I’m enjoying drawing and inking in this purple-grey lately. I also am playing more with looser panel structures. This anthology piece I just finished didn’t ...

October sticker/Dong #1

So I asked my patrons who receive stickers what they would like, and the answer was dick. Fucking thirsty holes. Hahaha! Here’s the first, had to go with Feral and his big uncut hog. I thought it was done and realized I hadn’t made his nuts big enough, he has some hefty balls as well.

Happy Hog day for all who cel...

What I been doin

Today I submitted my finished work for the anthology I mentioned recently. Unless the editors have changes for me, I am done! The last I heard, the kickstarter for it will be next month. I’m not allowed by contract to share the pages until a year after publication date, so if you don’t want to wait until then, you’ll ne...
