I am attempting to create a 24 page comic in this one day. This page is being updated throughout the day with pages.

Update (6:15pm): 10 hours in and I’m calling it at 17 pages. I’m not happy where I’ve ended up, and I don’t think it’s worth it to continue just for the sake of continuing. I clearly am one of those people who is much better off when there’s time for planning.

















Notes: Most (all?) appropriated imagery taken from comics by Bob Powell, Matt Baker, and Jesse Marsh. All text taken (with minor edits) from DeFoe’s Robinson Crusoe except the first sentence of the comic which comes from Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy.

I am not that ambitious, but I wanted to do something. So, I made an 8 page comic in 5 hours. It’s my first “comics recipe” about making miso soup (which I did last weekend for another project that will soon see light of day).

Read: “Making Miso Soup”

Comments appreciated. Naturally, its a little rough, as I basically drew it while I wrote it.
