Guest Strips by Me

Voids guest strip   Voids guest strip pages 1 & 2 (off-site link)
April 11 & 13, 2007

Shayna Marchese's Voids is one the best story-driven webcomics going, so I was excited for the opportunity to play with her characters while she took a break after the end of Voids' fifth chapter.


Theater Hopper guest strip   Theater Hopper guest strip (off-site link)
February 28, 2007

I have to admit that the first idea I had for my very first Theater Hopper guest strip was running too long (I'm not really comfortable with the four-panel format), so I used some lines from an alternate version of Multiplex #123 in a pinch. It worked out pretty well, I guess! I think Tom looks a little fucked up in the last panel, though.


Beaver and Steve guest strip   Beaver and Steve guest strip (off-site link)
by James Turner and Gordon McAlpin
January 30, 2007

James is being modest in his blog entry about this "sort of" guest strip: he wrote the strip; I shortened some dialogue to fit and added the beat panel at the end, but I just drew it.

Tastefully Nude pin-up calendar

This single-panel "public service announcement" was created for Michael Rouse-Deane's Tastefully Nude 2007 webcomics calendar (benefitting Cancer Research UK). It was the July pin-up.


Rob and Elliot guest strip   Rob and Elliot guest strip (off-site link)
October 17, 2006

When I first came up with the idea for this strip, I just knew I wanted to have all the robots in the world turn evil somehow, and that Mr. Robot was going to be tied to it. Going through the archives again did the trick, and I figured out a second character from the R&E universe to make it work. I'm really happy with how this one turned out. Doing the little tiny Joe & Monkey, Beaver & Steve and Bigger than Cheeses cameos was a blast, too.


Pirate and Alien guest strip   Pirate & Alien guest strip (off-site link)
October 16, 2006

My contribution to Tyson Smith's guest strip month was, I'm fairly certain, the only strip to not actually feature either Pirate or Alien, but this is only because I couldn't figure out what to do with the crazy bastards. I can admit it: I failed to do a very good guest strip. I had to drag Tyson's happy, friendly universe down to my own warped level...


SOCK'D guest strip   SOCK’D guest strip (off-site link)
September 5, 2006

How come no one ever notices the T-shirt?


Joe and Monkey guest strip

For this Joe and Monkey guest strip, I thought I would touch on a bit of J&M continuity by "explaining" why Kriticbot had disappeared from the strip without a trace for so long. I noticed too late that he had actually been seen in a strip less than two months before. Oops. I guess I'll have to explain that someday.


Joe Loves Crappy Movies guest strip

When Joe and Yeo got married, Joe enlisted me to contribute to a Guest Strip Week, so I figured I'd send the two newlyweds on their honeymoon in high style...

PvP guest strip 3
July 18, 2006

This was the first guest strip I did that wasn't really Multiplex in disguise, but it's sort of autobiographical: I went on a Civ IV bender for a few weeks right around this time.


2006 WCCA Presentation  

WCCA Presentation, Best Artist Category (off-site link)
July 17, 2006

Jason and Becky took time off of their hectic schedules at the Multiplex 10 to present the award for Best Artist in the 2006 Webcartoonist's Choice Awards. I made Jason's suit way too light compared to the black linework on him. Damn.


Today: The Comic guest strip  

Today: The Comic guest strip (off-site link)
June 16, 2006

Chad Diez’s Today: The Comic has a brilliant concept, and it’s brilliantly executed, so I leapt at the chance to do a guest strip for him. Like all most of the guest strips I do, it’s really a Multiplex strip done in the format of the strip I’m subbing for. (I call this one “The Final Cut is the Deepest.”)


PvP guest strips  

PvP guest strip 1 & 2
April 16 & 17, 2006

Scott Kurtz asked if I could do a quick guest strip for PVP. Since Silent Hill was opening the following week, I decided to have Brent and Skull see it at the Multiplex.

Thanks, by the way, to my friends who didn’t get the first one (despite the PS2 controller in the last panel), inspiring me to take the low road and do a fart joke as a back-up. I sent both strips to Scott, and he decided to run both of them. This second one is called “Silent Butt Deadly.”


Angie on HOUSD's 1000th strip  

HOUSD congratulations strip
February 20, 2006

Michael Rouse-Deane enlisted a bunch of webcomics artists and friends of Ali Graham (HOUSD) to create a small book in celebration of HOUSD’s 1000th strip.


Her! vs. Multiplex  

HER! [Girl vs. Pig] guest strip (off-site link)

This “crossover” with HER! [Girl vs. Pig] was done for Chris Bishop’s 29th birthday.

Like JLCM #127 before it, this wasn’t a guest strip, but featured one of the staff of the Multiplex 10 (namely Becky).

This wasn’t a guest strip, per se, but Jason and Franklin from Multiplex took the spotlight in this Joe Loves Crappy Movies strip.
