COMIC: When
A year with a small child.
Making of "Dr. Tickles"
The kids were blowing up over stupid stuff and J was managing to cheer them up with some tickles. I can't remember what was frustrating me -I was in the kitchen, so it couldn't have been a printer, but I saw him approaching from the corner of my eye and saying something along the line of the...
COMIC: Move
I'm not the only one who does this, right? 😅Edit: BONUS Panel!
Making of "Hold"
Our oldest has a habit of souring sweet moments -honestly, he might get it from me! This one happened to poor J, but I'm happy to report that he did in fact keep "the hand" holding on -so credit where credits due! :)As always, their big o' heads make stuff like this harder than it sh...
COMIC: Aarrggh!!
AARRGGH!!
NEW Litterbox Brand Coffee!
I'm going to announce it everywhere in a bit, but I wanted to give you guys the first look:Litterbox Brand Coffee!! 😃The best thing is it’s really good coffee! This isn’t just a quick jolt in the morning, but an artistic blend of rich flavors. The medium roast comes fresh from Colombia an...
Making of "Wake Up"
I saw this tweet on Mother's Day 3yrs ago:It was a 4 panel comic right out of the box and Momma Librarian already followed me and was happy for me to use it. It was too late for that year though, so I had to wait.The next year was lockdown and I didn't get my shit together for it. Last year ...
COMIC: Dr. Tickles
Based on a true story! (Make sure you read BOTH parts!)
Making of "Late to Class"
I was reading the comments on a Facebook post about kids saying inappropriate things. Someone said they could believe the original post, because they were a teacher and had heard a toddler say something along the lines of "Mommy needs to get her shit together".The juxtaposition of Cooper say...
COMIC: Wake Up
About time I had a new Mother's Day comic!BONUS Panel:
Making of "Infiltrated"
I've taken part in The Outliners event for 3 years and every year I both love and dread it! It's fun to play with a superhero trope, but it's SO HARD to cram it all into one comic that I can get done on time. I had a bunch of ideas this year, but they are basically full animated Justice ...
COMIC: Late to Class
New one for Teacher Appreciation Day! :)
COMIC: Hold
Real conversation alert! We always say our 7yo is the best writer in the house! 😄BONUS Panel:
COMIC: Infiltrated
If I've seemed quiet it's because I've been working on this 3 part behemoth! I both love and hate National Superhero Day! 😅If you want to catch up with the previous Supercats episodes here's Part 1 and Part 2.
Making "Egg Hunt"
There are certain jokes that can only work in the Litterverse and when I stumble upon them, I feel it is my duty to see them through!Everything went surprisingly smoothly with this one. I flipped some of the panels because I decided the last one read better if you saw Fran's expression BEFORE wh...
COMIC: Egg Hunt
Happy almost Easter!EDIT: Question! Think I should repost this related comic the day before Easter? I'm unsure if it adds or detracts from the new one. 🤔BONUS Panel:
Making of "Evening Plans"
This should have been an easy comic. Instead I did a WHOLE OTHER comic first!! Lets start at the beginning. This one sooort of happened. J asked if I wanted to watch something after we bedtimed the "shit-heads", but then followed up with "That I looove!" as a joke to me. The kids wer...
Making of "The Cutest"
This was an actual conversation J had with our youngest. I guess he must have been 4 at the time?I modified poses from previous strips, so the art for this one went blazingly fast!People get very confused about Cooper's age -granted, it is rather confusing! My plan right now is to keep everyone ...
5yo's Birthday Plans
5yo has declared that his 6th birthday theme will be "Money" and he'll need a $100 cake and everyone will have to give him a million dollars. When asked why he needed all this money, he said it was for "decowations for the house". Turns out he has his heart set on this terrifying...
COMIC: How Old? (remastered)
Remaster of a comic from Jan '19. EDIT: BONUS panel! (Thanks for the help!) :)Here's the before (1/19) and after:I always liked the badger character, so I kept her the same, except I removed the walker from the 1st panel to emphasize the passage of time. I've moved on to using Target sty...
Happy April Fools!
My plan was to Mandela Effect everyone and make people wonder for a second if they'd slipped into a parallel dimension! Did I get you? 😄Designing the pups, I knew Joel had to be a Boston Terrier because J loves Bostons, which is why cat-Joel has Boston Terrier markings to begin with! I was a ...
4 years of Litterbark Comics!
4 years of Litterbark Comics! I wanted to do a new comic for today, but I ran out of time, so here’s a repost. Thanks for all the love you’ve given my crazy little dog family over the years! Woof Woof! 🐶BONUS Panel:
Making of "New Kid"
This conversation must have happened pre-pandemic, so he was probably around 5. In reality, in panel 3 I had a lot more trepidation in my voice, bracing myself for whatever awful thing might be coming next. I made Fran more neutral so the final reaction had more of a punch.The real life conversation...
Making of "Baby Prep"
After the success of turning J's old chloroform post into a comic, I thought I'd go trawling though Facebook to see if there were any other gems to be had.I came across these 2:They could have stood alone, but together they would be stronger!The drawing went surprisingly smoothly for a 6 pan...
COMIC: Cutest
Actual conversation J had with our youngest 😍Trying to normalize Cooper saying a bit more, because the real one is so hilarious and in a different way than his brother.Edit: BONUS Panel!
COMIC: New Kid
An actual conversation with my kid. 😬Edit: BONUS Panel! Also based on real life 😬
Making of "Trolling"
This one started out as one of J's Facebook posts from 2014:J reminded me of it the other day and we thought it could make a good comic. The problem was figuring out HOW.The natural solution seemed to be Fran and Bunny trolling mom groups with lines like this. Joel could ask what they were up to...
COMIC: First Steps (remastered)
BONUS Panel:This is a remaster of a comic from May 2019. It was the very last comic I did in the old style. Here's the before and after:The flow is the same, but I did a lot of little changes, the least of which being switching out Cooper for Vincent. When I first did this comic, Cooper had yet ...
COMIC: Baby Prep
Flashback episode!BONUS Panel:(Edit: Added mustache to Baby Vince) :D
