You're lucky I didn't show you what IT'S running from

This is not a guest comic! East Coast weather has played havoc with the airlines, so a weekend trip to Massachusetts has unexpectedly turned into a week, and I’m still not at home where I can access my computer. Left without my database of weird images, my choices were to scour the web for something usable to make a comic…or do something a little more fun. I’m staying with Jeffrey Rowland at the moment, and while he doesn’t have shelves full of Victorian books like I do, he most certainly does have art supplies and a scanner. So I drew and colored this comic for you! I’m sure our regular players are fervently hoping that this mysterious new character doesn’t find his way back into the normal strips…but who knows?

TUESDAY, 1/21: Tune into EXPERT PANEL on Twitch

THIS WEEK, I’ll be streaming live with fellow historical-art-enthusiast Dylan Meconis for a new show we’re calling Expert Panel.

We’ll be trawling through the archives of historical newspapers and magazines, and trying our best to puzzle out what’s going on. What was the intended joke here?

This is an exercise born from my own research for Wondermark source material, marveling at some of what I’ve unearthed and excited to share it with the world in a whole different way.

This first episode will be streamed live at:

• TUESDAY JANUARY 21
• 1:00 PM PACIFIC TIME
• twitch.tv/davidmalki

You can even add a reminder to your calendar, if you like!

UPDATE: For a limited time, you can watch the archived stream on Twitch!
