I’m pretty pumped! I get to listen to this previously unreleased Hendrix concert. Incidentally, this marks the first time in 3 years since I purchased a CD…

I love my parents a great deal, but sometimes it’s difficult for me to communicate with them, as evidenced in today’s comic. I think it stems from the fact that in our family, we’ve never celebrated our success. It’s something I want to explore in greater detail within future strips…
Can you relate?

Pre-order yours today! (If I totally sell out, guess what? I’ll make an UNcubed book next!)

My sister sent me this idea. She was talking to Dad about taking vitamins to boost her memory. Dad apparently got the wrong idea… and the conversation up above is what played out.
Funny how our parents still don’t trust us to do the right thing.

I want the world to know that we lost a tremendous artistic talent and a genuine great person named Angel Yates last week. I attended her funeral on Saturday. I offered my own remembrance of her at her memorial service, but I was so choked with sadness that it was difficult for me to put into words what I felt.
She had such big plans. She wanted to make a book to collect her Wicked Alchemy web comics. She and I had even talked about sharing a table at next year’s MegaCON…
Inqy was a true talent and I am blessed for having had a chance to be her instructor.
Rest in peace, Angel.

Yesterday evening, shortly after I came home from work, I came to learn that a student and friend of mine, Angel “Inqy” Yates, had passed away. I found out about this incredibly sad news the same way I had learned about the deaths of Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays.
Via Twitter.
At first I couldn’t believe it. But the grim reality became evident after I checked her DeviantArt page.
The news of Inqy’s death hit me incredibly hard.
Only a few short weeks ago, she had graduated from the Art Institute of Tampa. I was there the day she walked across the stage to receive her diploma. It was an exuberant moment. Regretfully, I never got a chance to congratulate her in person.
Inqy was not only an amazing student – (she excelled in every single course I taught) – she was also an supremely talented and prolific artist. Her talent was matched only by her super-human work ethic. She took 5 classes, balanced a full-time job and family, and set the bar in every course she took. She was an active participant in class, offering feedback and she would often go out of her way to help other students who needed it.
She had SO much going for her…
The world has been robbed of an amazingly talented artist. And a truly wonderful human being. My mind is still reeling from the news.
Rest in peace, Inqy. You were an amazing person, and you will be missed.

As parents we take on many roles for our children. In creating this comic, I felt that words within the panels would dilute the message. Thoughts?
