What is Grumpy Comics?
Grumpy Comics, is basically a site I made knowing full well that I would
be jumping around with the different kinds of comics I made, and I already
have done within my first year. Right now, I'm focusing on Imagination!
And all that is Awesome! Though, to be honest I am having a pretty rough
start to it.
What is Some Assembly Required?
SoAR was a comic about friends, lovers, robots, zombies, things with
resemblance to actors (namely squids). Sunday's were always a Turtle
Sunday as a bonus treat.
However, this got way to bogged down with bad writing and art, and I
think I wasted it in the first real story, plus I tried way to hard with
character development. It wasn't very good, but it did help me get way
better at drawing.
*I personally abbreviated it as SoAR because SAR is too close to SARS.*
What is Imagination! And all that is Awesome!?
This is my current comic, it is about me and my friends, and how we interact in my insanely overactive imagination. There really isn't much else to say, that sums it up pretty well I think, I'm excited to see where it goes.
Joe: The main character of the comic, he has the most wild imagination and rules his own kingdom within it.
Kalene: Joe's girlfriend and only connection to reality. Kalene likes animals a lot. I mean a lot.
Scott: Tech savvy Scott loves computers and French. Bonjour!
Dan: AKA Danny Airtime, Dan enjoys listing out the first 150 Pokémon. Likes top chef.
Martin: Soon to be a Marine, Martin likes all things XTREME. And Zombies.
Who are you?

aiming for a career in illustration. web-comics are awesome, and doing
this has been a goal of mine for awhile.
Who hosts your site?
I use DreamHost because it was referred to me by WordPress, as well as
the book How To Make Webcomics by Brad Guigar, Dave Kellett,
Scott Kurtz, Kris Staub. This book has been super helpful, check it out
if you are interested in making webcomics at all.
Who does the site maintenance?

the internets side of all this.
