Putting this week's Far Out There comic up a little early, to cover the next convention trip, and also FINALLY! THE JENNA COMICS ARE CAUGHT BACK UP AGAIN! Now, if I can only get that MadLib comic done, we'll be COMPLETELY caught up! (That's gonna be first priority once I hit the ne...

Some context: MAGFest's started doing this thing called "M-Points" to combat the problem of their tournaments and contests having sucky prizes. See, there's no such thing as a prize that somebody, somewhere wouldn't be disappointed with, so the ideal thing is to just let the winners go pick th...

Granted, taking concert photos inside the actual concert hall isn't THAT much better. I swear, programmable spotlights must have been invented by a person with an all-consuming hatred of camera autofocus.
Also, sorry to MegaFlare for not only bumping his cameo from the main update, but a...

My first job was selling plastic cups at a mall kiosk. I was terrible at it. Things haven't improved much since then. Have I mentioned recently how much I just don't like doing table duty in general? All the more reason I really, REALLY need this whole Patreon thing to take o...

Okay, so that's the last of the overdue Jenna comics. I'm gonna TRY to crank out this week's regularly scheduled comic ahead of schedule, before I head off to Triad Anime Con. And then, once THAT'S out of the way, I can FINALLY finish up that overdue MadLib comic!
Hey look! It's last week's comic! Yes, you're NOT getting this week'd comic early, this is LAST week's comic really really late. You'll still be getting another JJBA comic before I leave for Triad Anime Con, come Hell or high water. Just want to make sure all you paying custo...

Oh good, I finally got LAST WEEK'S Far Out There comic finished. Yes, MAGFest delays or no MAGFest delays, I'm not counting this as "this week's comic". I officially still owe you guys one more. I'll get everything squared away as soon as possible.
Thank you so much for the support this month!

I tried really, REALLY hard to get an extra Patreon comic done before I left for MAGFest, since I wanted to focus entirely on THOSE comics when I got back. And I ALMOST did it. I managed to get this written and inked before other obligations got in the way, so all I had to do when I got ...

Okay gang, I'm changing things up a bit. When I got started on Patreon, I made my own list of anime I'd do comics on, just so I'd have SOMETHING to work with in case it took a while for people to start making requests. To be fair, it kind of did take a while, but now I've got several pai...

Dang, even I didn't think this page would go up quite THIS early, but there ya go. This week's Far Out There Patreon comic successfully made it online before I hit the road to MAGFest! Like, waaaay before. But hey, better to go ahead and do it now than risk forgetting in all the confusio...

You know, I haven't done much in this Sci-Fi webcomic that's really all that science fiction-y lately, have I? At least, not much beyond drawing some characters with funny faces. Well, let's do something about that! I almost had this page just be Jenna walking into the lobby of an ...

One of the go-to questions when talking to a creator is what their favorite of their creations is. When people talk to me about Conventional Wisdom, I often get asked what my favorite (or, in many cases, LEAST favorite) convention was. On the much rarer occasion that Far Out There comes ...

I gotta write the credits to this episode a thank you note, since it gave me a license to copy/paste like MAD for this page and not feel the least bit bad about it. And since you can see here just how frantic and busy my daily schedule is, you can understand why I'd need to take a few shortcut...

I wanted to have Jenna giving the homeless guy some money (cos you know she would) but it just didn't fit with the page layout.
NO, MANNISH BOY DOES NOT COUNT.
So, Iggy represented an interesting challenge from an artistic standpoint. Not so much "can I draw this face?" as "which face to i try to draw?" Seriously, do a quick google search and compare all the results. This could have gone several diffe...

They still have magazines in the future because I grew up reading magazines and just couldn't picture this joke working any other way. We're all lucky I don't have everybody listening to music on vinyl.

CRAP, I meant to do this sooner. In order to aid in the process of browsing through all my material on Patreon, I'm occasionally going to post an index like this with links to everything. I'm also going to make these post visible to EVERYONE, if only to tantalize people with hints of mys...

This is how you know a convention's really moving up in the world: when people start complaining about the crowd congestion in the halls. So, um, congratulations Ichibancon, I guess.
Full disclosure: this kind of panel just doesn't have any appeal for me whatsoever. I Know a lot of other people like them, but I'm sorry, I just don't see the fun in sitting a room watching some random kids cosplaying as characters from a show. I can just walk through the halls and see ...
