New Comic, Threadless and other News
Here I am with a new comic. But also some News on different topics.The perfidious thing about whaling is the fact that whales take years to reach sexual maturity and reproduce slowly. Even worse is that the weapons for whaling are not necessarily designed for a quick death, it is assumed that the sh...

I'm back!
Hello friends,I just want to apologize for the lack of posts. The sudden loss of my dog hit me harder than I expected, or rather I didn't think that I would nibble on it for so long. But many of you probably know just how much the loss of a beloved companion can affect you.I am currently trying ...
The comic I dreaded the most....
Hello friends,You already knew that I had to say goodbye to my dog last month. While I was grieving, I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to dedicate a comic to Trixi. On the one hand because it's incredibly heartbreaking for me, of course, but also because I was afraid that it might look lik...

Creating another Anniversary artwork
Can you believe that Loving Reaper is three years old today? Unbelievable how fast time flies. Unbelievable that after three years I can still share my stories with the world.
