The Phone Call.


The courtesy phone call to the parents always leads to trouble. That’s why I’m clinically depressed.

Pulling Out All The Punches.


The last comic of my first year. A summation of everything college, I suppose.

Studying for Finals.


Another colored comic! Seriously, though, students do almost anything not to study for finals.

College Milestones.


I never did reach any of these milestones. In fact, I died three days before turning 21. Shot by the mafia.

Caffeinated Tim Returns.


This comic is one of many that shows Jen working at a coffee shop. I suppose, being the level-headed of all the characters, it’s not unusual for her to have a normal job. Oh, and frat boys really do snort coke.

Things to Do When You Graduate and You’re Still Unemployed.


People don’t think about it, but after graduation is scary. This comic serves as a reminder, as well as stuff this comic with as many characters as possible.

Tasks of the O.A.R. Ninja, Muscle of the Office of Admissions and Records.


The Office and Admissions Record Ninja is a fun character, and I feel I under-utilized her this semester.

Notes: Lincoln Hall is lecture hall that’s literally falling apart and is in desperate need of repair. UI-Integrate system is the way students register for classes; at first, it was confusing to use. Parkland is a local community college near U of I.

Thoughtless, Sausage-Fest Style.


For April Fools’ Day, the other cartoonists and I decided to draw each other comics. I got Matt Yurkanin’s “Thoughtless”, and I drew and wrote his comic like a poorly-dubbed Anime. And yes: Yurk’s Booker T’s character resembled Pikachu, the villain is Dr. Weird from “Aqua Teen Hunger Force,” and that’s Sailor Moon and Hello Kitty at the end.

Check out the rest of the collaborations/swaps here:
Joe Martin takes on Matt Vroom’s “I Hate Pam.”
Matt Yurkanin takes on Pat Doran’s “The Way Life Should Be.”
Matt Vroom taking on my comic, “Sausage-Fest.”
Pat Doran takes on Joe Martin’s “Boy.”

FUCK SPRING! FUCK MIDTERMS!


We had heavy, inexplicable snow storms in March, and most students had midterms.
