TALES OF THE DRIVE guest comic with Brad Guigar! (page 1)
🕑 Added 2023-08-29 16:42:44 +0000 UTCHey hey, the day has come!
The guest comic I drew (written by Brad Guigar) for Dave Kellett's sci-fi comedy DRIVE is publishing starting today! Dave's sharing one page per week every Tuesday, on his Patreon, so I'm going to do the same for most of the story here. (He sliced it up for us to share vertically, so here are the panels a little closer:)
Brad and I are both sharing our pages on Dave's Tuesday schedule until early November, at which point you'll be able to read the rest (in an equally low tier) over on Dave's Patreon, where he hosts all of the "Tales Of" guest comics.
A little about these two: Dave and Brad are old webcomics buddies of mine (the "Webcomics Uncles," as they've been dubbed). Dave's been doing a comic called Sheldon since THE LATE NINETIES, and Brad started Graystone Inn back in 2000. For reference, I started Girls With Slingshots in 2004; Brad and Dave were both inspirations for me to make a regular habit out of posting my comic online.
Since then Dave co-created the comics documentary Stripped and started this sci-fi comic called Drive and Brad has been working on a comic called Evil Inc. (warning: the saucier version of his comic, Evil Inc. After Hours, is advertised at the top of the page, so open at your own risk!).
But what *I* think of when I think of Dave and Brad now is their comics podcast Comic Lab (which I've been on). If you're a nerd for comics and entrepreneurship, their podcast will scratch what itches you. :)
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this little extra weekly treat!
PS I originally popped my thumbnail sketches into the end of this, but meant to remove them because I wasn't sure how in-the-weeds-sausage-is-made-y people wanted to get with a single page. Luke suggested I keep them in, so here they are, enjoy!
I like to keep the script on the left, doodle my initial impressions of body language/facial expressions there, and then organize that energy into a preset template on the right so I know what the proportions will be on the final page.

I am *so* here for seeing this comic appear in duplicate on my timeline. Exciting!

I've been reading Drive since almost the beginning, and I really like how you drew the cast! Especially Skitter's expression in the last panel.
