This looks absolutely fantastic. I can't get over how cool an idea it is to publish comics in a mass-market style paperback. Bravo, Chris!

A BERRY BONES HOLIDAY LOOK-BACK (Part IV!)
While BERRY BONES is on a BERRY BREAK for the holidays - our next story starts JANUARY 5th! - we're taking a moment to look back and highlight some of what's been posted this year. We had 18 complete stories amounting to over 100 comics since April! :O
BERRY BONES is a comic strip about some teenage monsters (monster aliens, even!) hanging out in the woods trying to navigate their simple lil' lives. It's funny and weird, but also not that weird at all!!
We've already done a PART 1 and PART 2! and PART TRES!! so now we'll do one more round before we get to the new stories for the new year!
Let's start this last bout off with...
The Chilly Hole Challenge: The boys are surprised by an impromptu challenge at the local swimming hole.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This is a little story about getting embarrassed in public and just sorta having to deal with it. If you pay a little closer attention, you'll notice Ro (in addition to Moss) is also dealing with some level of embarrassment, which goes to show you that lots of people are embarrassed like, all the time! It goes hand-in-hand with, y'know, existing. But now let's talk about... Shaved and Confused: Ro desperately tries to find someone to believe her totally unbelievable discovery.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
I always forget that this is probably one of - if not thee -most "important" story so far from a narrative-building perspective. I don't know how well I really pulled it off, but we get multiple discoveries in this simple 6 comic-strip tale, with an ending twist that definitely impacts the comic moving forward.
Plus it deals with conspiracy theories and getting gaslit to no end. Just like real life!! :D Now let's direct things towards... The Hairy Cup: The boys are initiated into a very exclusive cult.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
The Hairy Cup is 100% about inserting a story-bible factoid into the proceedings to explain why these naked hairy bros aren't walking around with erections all the time. It's a bit insane, haha. So let's skip over to... What Lies in Our Well: It's time to gather around the ol' campfire and settle in for some faith-shaking tales!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Even though they're more work and trickier to pull off, I like when I'm able to get the Main-4 kids together to bounce off of each other. The Well of Endless Thirst is a nod to my old comic-series NOMAD TOFU (later named-changed to PUB) which plays rather heavily into future events! And finally, we have... Flams Bam Man: The drum circle welcomes new members, putting Ro's skills to the test.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
I was a drummer from the 4th grade until about the 10th grade, which I think is why subconsciously I made this story the introduction of Polly and Ellefs' little sister and brother. It's mostly just a cute story about finding the confidence within yourself to rise to the occasion. And maybe being a tad narcissistic about yourself, too. --- Alright! That's it! Our next story WINDY starts JANUARY 5th on both Tapas and Comicfury! I hope to see ya' pop on by sometime in 2026. I'm going to make a better effort to stream the process over on Twitch this year, too, so come say HI! (My schedule will probably involve Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursday nights (EST) and not Fridays or the weekend.)
A BERRY BONES HOLIDAY LOOK-BACK (PART TRES!)
While BERRY BONES is on a BERRY BREAK for the holidays - our next story starts JANUARY 5th! - we're taking a moment to look back and highlight some of what's been posted this year. We had 18 complete stories amounting to over 100 comics since April! :O
BERRY BONES is a monster comic following monster teens doing monster teen things. It's a comedy. It's pretty earnest. A bit slice-of-life and surprisingly relatable!
And now we're gonna go over some of these stories and give ya' a factoid or two! (We've already done some in PART 1 and PART 2!)
Let's start this round with...
Scouts Out: Summer approaches, and graduation day has come for the Berry Scouts! Will everyone make it through? What happens if you don't??
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Something I always really admired about Ranma 1/2 is its ability to make the reader feel like every adventure was high stakes and needle-moving, but by the end of it everything would go back to the status quo like a really good sitcom. Then when you get to the end of that series and stuff actually STICKS it's like, whoa. BERRY BONES doesn't do that, haha. If anything, we're kinda doing the opposite, wherein the stories and conditions for these characters are constantly changing and evolving the set-pieces. Or at least that's a long-term goal of the series. Scouts Out is maybe the first of that, where we're transitioning to a summer landscape, which means Schooool's Out (for summah!)
Summer Vacation begins with... The Hovel of Love: Summer vacation is finally here, and Moss has his house all to himself! What's a boy to do...
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This one really toed the line of where I want the comic to go, like, uh... s-sexy wise. Like, okay, they're teens being largely left to their own devices. I want heartache and mischief! But at the same time, these are hairy monsters and I don't want things going in a, err, furrier direction. It's not that kinda comic, I swear it!! These are muppet-avatars for real-life situations like your folks going out-of-town and having the place to yourself! It's never going to get explicit b/c I don't wanna see that private stuff! But innuendos are fun, right? R-right?? 9_9 Let's move onto... The Witch and the Warheads: The scouts decide to prank the local - and very dangerous - witch!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
I think this was one of the first stories I actually sat down and wrote out for BERRY BONES. The witch was in my last comic series - not currently available online - and I always felt like that character really opened up this world to me. And she does it with BERRY BONES, too, although that story has only begun to reveal itself. Another one of my personal favorite stories, so far, and it won a little Ko-fi Discord contest over Halloween, too!
Now let's talk about... Barney: The boys cross paths with a barnacle from outer space!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Every series needs a cute lil' mascot, right?! Barney's one of maybe two - the other has yet to reveal itself. The concept of a space-barnacle came from - again - my last comic series that currently isn't available online (You can catch a glimpse of it on Tapas under a little collection I call "Extra Tofu"). I wrote - but never drew - a story about space barnacles. The idea was they start off as mindless little creatures and slowly become sentient - and a problem! - if they aren't dealt with when they're young. Barney's already past that stage, so am I insinuating he may become a problem?? Time will tell... but let's get to our last story in this little wrap-up with... Fire Works: The village is abuzz after rumors circulate of an apparent miracle!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This is a bit of a world-building story with the introduction of GOD! Well, GOD+S!! They're all basically kaijus, but I liked the idea that there were a bunch of little sects in this community as opposed to them all worshiping the same thing. The gods are all part of the same story, but their individuality introduces a bit of team-sports to the proceedings, which I think makes religion a little more fun. Like, no one gets bent out of shape defending their God, right?!
--- We'll be back later this week with one more wrap-up, and then we'll be back NEXT WEEK with the start of our next story!! Hope you all had a Merry holiday, and I wish you nothing but the best comics to read in '26!
A BERRY BONES HOLIDAY LOOK-BACK! (Part 2!!)
Happy Holiday Week, Tumblr! While BERRY BONES is on a BERRY BREAK for the holidays - our next story starts JANUARY 5th! - we're taking a moment to look back and highlight some of what's been posted this year. We had 18 complete stories amounting to over 100 comics since April! :O
If you're new, BERRY BONES is a story-driven comic strip following teen monsters being monstrous teens. Part Muppets, part BONE, part all-it's-own… or at least being "unique" is what we hear most… and we take that as a compliment!!
Last week we highlighted some early stories with a tidbit or two in-between, and this week… we're gonna do that some more! WhoOoOoAaaAaa!!
First up is…
Knot Knuckles: Ro enlists Moss to beat up a local for purely altruistic reasons!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
The idea behind Knot Knuckles was meant to be a moral code for settling scraps without getting the authorities involved - because the authorities in this comic are, like, really strict! Ro tries to outsource her moral outrage to Moss, but truthfully she probably should have just settled things herself. Maybe she will, one day…
Next, we have…
Bod-ology: After overhearing the girl of his dreams calling him fat, Herbie resolves to change his ways.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Bod-ology is the classic dive into overhearing something flippant and having it ruin your whole day. This is one of our more relatable stories - at least it was to me!! - and one of my personal favorites, so far.
From there we moved onto…
The Flamethrower: Polly and Ro come across a flamethrower. Polly and Ro live in the woods.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
There's a few different episodes of Star Trek (TNG) where the gist is locals discover they're being surveilled by an advanced civilization. That concept always clicked with me, and the Chorg-tech story-lines are most definitely influenced by that idea. Among other things. Plus, I think finding something like a flamethrower randomly in the woods writes itself (which makes some of my job easier!)
And to wrap up this installment we have…
Pulling Out: After witnessing a personal struggle, the boys' response comes into question.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Honestly, these teens have more of a conscious and are more self-reflective than I think most people would write a teenager - especially in today's climate. Which is sort of what I'm pushing back against, I guess. I often say this is a comic about teen monsters being monsters, which makes for easy marketing! But these kids really aren't so bad…
We've got a few more stories to recap, but if I don't see ya's beforehand I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!!!
Or at least some cozy comfy time with a good book… or a good comic!! ;P
A BERRY BONES HOLIDAY LOOK-BACK!
Hey Team Tumblr! While BERRY BONES is on a BERRY BREAK for the holidays - our next story starts JANUARY 5th! - I thought it'd be a good opportunity to go back and highlight some of what's been posted this year. We had 18 complete stories amounting to over 100 comics since April! :O
If you're new, BERRY BONES follows 5 monster teens in a little woodland community on a planet called Oakea. It's part of a much larger world we're building, but the stories themselves are often intimate and very, very relatable!
As always, I suppose you should start with…
An Introduction: This is where we meet Ro, Moss, Polly, Herbie, and Harvest for the first time!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This one ends with an ominous shot of Harvest running towards a giant, retro-sci-fi looking gun, which is a little wink and a nod to the folks who read my last webcomic PUB (not currently available online!). It's a good tease to some future events, and that's all I'm going to say about that!!
From there we moved on to…
Berry Scouts: While delivering supplies to a local outpost, Berry Scout Moss has a crisis of confidence.
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
Berry Scouts saw the introduction of more characters like the authority figure Captain Pebb, as well as the shifty and mischievous demons! They'll play a larger role in future stories! (As well as the weaponry the little squirts are carrying!)
After that we caught wind of…
Cake News: After discovering the girls have cake, the boys go on a very urgent fact-finding mission!
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This one was one of our more 'controversial stories', because it features some, err, intimate moments, as well as some questionable hot-takes from a dopey young teen who thinks he's a wiseguy. It's also our first look at the mysterious mountain alien who turns out to be a pretty chill dude in The Chorg. (He's also pretty darn important to the series' future!)
And finally, we'll round out this first batch with... Lost in the Woods: Polly finds herself lost in the woods. Will she lose herself, too?
Read BERRY BONES and more premium Comedy Community series now on Tapas!
This one is a not so subtle allegory about getting lost in your own head. It's one of my personal favorites, especially Panel 1 in Part 6. ---
We'll be back over the next few weeks to highlight and chat about some more stories. I'd love to hear YOUR THOUGHTS about the comic so far! Your favorite character, or story, or joke, maybe even where you think the story is going next! Leave 'em anywhere, my main page, under a specific comic - you can even reach me at [email protected]!
Just let me know if I can share your thoughts with the class, and I'll make sure to shout you out!
Until next time :D
