Yesterday I read through most of your comics in reverse-chronological order, and I was confused when you mentioned sticking with the "real-life Alex" design because I couldn't see that much difference with the other design? Then I scrolled further and realized how real-life Alex started out drawn really different than comic Alex and changed gradually. It was really cool to see the representation of how you've grown into the look you want to have :)

Thank you!!

Just like how we view ourselves, art is a process and changes over time. I'm constantly getting happier with my real life appearance as well as my comic appearance!

As a fun little trip through time, here's instances of Comic Alex over the years!

First appearance in Corpse Run:

First reworked appearance:

Final appearance in Corpse Run:

First appearance in I'm Still Alex:

First appearance of "real life Alex":

Real life Alex's first change:

Real life Alex's second change:

In the strip where I make the change of using "real life Alex" as the full time design for me in strips, we have Corpse Run Alex, Initial I'm Still Alex Alex:

and the version I use now!

aaaaaaaaaaaand the most recent Alex in this past week's strip!

I'm sure things will continue to change!

Hey!

@cholerascum had a post regarding the feelings while we get sometimes when looking in the mirror. It's certainly a universal feeling and made me want to share this strip from my old comic.

This strip is actually fairly recent, January 2022. I knew I was trans for over a decade at this point, and I was out to like five or so folks, but I never thought I'd actually make the decision to start HRT when I made this.

The strip itself was more for humor than it was for anything introspective, but no matter the situation, it's hard not to be critical of ourselves when a mirror is in front of us.

Corpse Run 618: Remastered

My MTA mini adventure:

Get on train

Two stops later the doors close and we move about 100 feet

booooooop

“This is now an express train” (train no longer makes local stops and will skip the next four stops which at least half the train gets off at)

Train enters express lane

Train proceeds to STOP AT EVERY LOCAL STOP DUE TO TRAIN TRAFFIC AHEAD, BUT SINCE WE’RE IN THE EXPRESS TRACK WE CANT GET OFF THE TRAIN.

End up stopping at every stop, for an extended wait each time.  All passengers are extremely mad.

Finally get to the new station where we can take a train going local in the opposite direction.

…A$$HOLE CONDUCTOR OPENS DOORS ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE TRAIN SO HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE TO SQUEEZE INTO TWO STAIRCASES, WALK UNDER THE TRACKS, AND SQUEEZE BACK UP JUST TWO STAIRCASES

I hate you, MTA.

Ok so... what if I started posting strips from the long long ago as a throwback Thursday thing?

So like, I make comics now, but I used to too! CORPSE RUN THROWBACK THURSDAY!!

Original post blog:

Rich and I finished up our Final Fantasy 9 run earlier this week and despite the fact that this was hardly my first playthrough of the game, I had no idea just how all-encompassing the “bird killer” ability was.

Is an enemy aerial in any way, shape, or form?

“BIRD!” cries FF9, even when something clearly isn’t a bird.

Ozma, for example, is a sphere.

Come on, that’s not even close.

Also falling into the category of “not even close” was my clothes at work on Wednesday.  I felt out of sorts all day and couldn’t place why until 5pm when I went to the bathroom.  While staring in the mirror as I washed my hands, I realized that my shirt was buttoned incorrectly.

I looked ridiculous.  Forget the fact that I was out of it enough that morning to button my shirt wrong and not notice, but no one mentioned anything to me all day.

Eeeek.
