All the goblins I made for goblin week this year!

Okay, so this one is actually from my Junior year, while I was studying abroad in Spain, but I’m posting it because it uses a quote from Great Expectations, which book I’m posting a review of on Friday. So it’s all justified, I figure.

TEXT: I’m so happy to be back here. Because I was in Spain last Semester, it’s been 9 months since I’ve been in Iowa City, and I just can’t stop grinning. Our place feels more lived in. Messy, but bustling. The wifi name has changed, but the password is the same. And our balcony… has even more plants!

FRANCIS: Oh my god!

TEXT: Some things, inexplicably, have stayed the same.

FRANCIS: This is my last year of college, and I regret that I haven’t done much journalling during my college years (aside from my semester abroad.) So in the interest of documenting this era of my life, improving my drawing and comicking skills, and generating some scrumptious  c o n t e n t, I’m going to put out a weekly autobio comic all throughout my senior year! The comic will run from this week to May 17. It will post at least once each week, sometimes twice, depending on if I’m posting something else that week. Most comics will be better than this one. Whatever. I’m still getting my bearings here.

Just a little autobio comic I doodled during my mystery fiction class, in the vein of Lucy Bellwood’s 100 Demon Dialogues.
