Oh man. I lied on the last post. I really thought the Star Wars post would be the last comic of the year. And yet, here we are. Game nights typically happen this way. We’ll have big plans at the outset. But they usually devolve into just hanging out. The night is usually hampered byContinue reading “15. On Game Nights”

14. Live.Die.Repeat
Welcome back. Last comic for 2019. A fairly prolific year for Stranger than Friendship comics, I must say. Four whole comics. Beats the “one” I did in 2018. As always, my goal is to do more, and 2020 feels like the year! But I say that every year… I recently completed STAR WARS Jedi:Continue reading “14. Live.Die.Repeat”
13. Lol RIP Wayne
Back to the video game related comics. This one taking place within the Gears universe. Illestrader and I have been playing through Gears 5 in co-op, and we have been struggling through on the Experienced difficulty settings. The franchise has always had 4 levels, Casual, Normal, Hardcore and Insane. With Gears 5, its now Beginner,Continue reading “13. Lol RIP Wayne”
12. Fatherhood, pt 3
Wrapping up the Fatherhood trilogy here. The next idea I have is Motherhood related, and then we’ll probably go back to more conventional stuff. I’ve been experimenting with different techniques lately, and learning a lot about lettering and word bubbles. But I will probably go back to my normal, more comfortable style for the nextContinue reading “12. Fatherhood, pt 3”
11. Fatherhood, pt 2
So our son, Cillian, was born Aug 12, 2018, at 2 in the morning. As the comic depicts, it was a pretty strenuous labour, but we all made it out happy and healthy, but extremely tired. I had help with the idea and writing for this comic, from my fiancee, as she’s the one thatContinue reading “11. Fatherhood, pt 2”
10. Fatherhood, pt 1
So I’m gonna be a dad in August. Baby boy on the way. He’ll be a professional gamer in no time I suspect. When most people ask if I’m ready, I just reply “Yup. I’ve played all the necessary games to train myself.” Fully competent until proven otherwise, right? Also, new comic? Whoa, right? -iRogan
9. Achievement Logic
True story. Butt Butt achievement in Runbow. Runbow is actually a pretty fun game. Sort of like a poor-man’s Super Smash Bros with a single-player mode. It was last month’s Xbox One Free Games with Gold so I won’t complain either way. I tried a new style this time around. Going black and white, 4Continue reading “9. Achievement Logic”
8. On Barn Find Logic
The whole concept of “finding” cars in the Forza Horizon series always seemed very illegal to me. The barns are just out there, and inside are these forgotten, neglected classic cars. And we find them, and suddenly they’re ours, for our car crew to fix up. But who did these cars originally belong to? IContinue reading “8. On Barn Find Logic”
7. You know, those times when everything goes wrong.
Illestrader and I have been grinding our way through Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands. As evident in this accurate, albeit, late comic. True story though, the characters in this game say “shitballs” a lot. Sometimes it is hard to take the game serious when you actually listen to their dialogue. But I guess that’s partContinue reading “7. You know, those times when everything goes wrong.”
6. Astroneer Survival Guide
As you can see from the comic, I don’t play well with others. It probably comes back to my meticulous nature, but when I’m working in the home base, I have a strong urge to make it very flat, easy to navigate, with all the pods and extensions laid out precisely. However, using the deformationContinue reading “6. Astroneer Survival Guide”
