Happy 10th Anniversary, Super Sad Squad!
Can you believe it? It’s been ten years since Super Sad Squad was first started at my desk at work in 2015. I had just gotten back from visiting some friends in California and my motivation was at an all time high. I went full blast on Super Sad Squad for YEARS. All gas, no brakes…and by that I mean no BREAKS - which was a terrible choice.
Time has passed. I went on hiatus in 2023 and haven’t been back to drawing in quite a bit. However, that hiatus is coming to a screeching halt. The engines are firing, the gas tank is full and I am ready to draw again.
Actually, scratch that. It’s not that I’m ready right now, but that I’ve actually been ready…for a few months…and I just didn’t tell you.
BLANK VERSE: CHAPTER 3 IS IN FULL PRODUCTION! I am 100% finished with the writing and about 25% complete with the illustration. I’ve been going at it for the past few weeks and have been knocking out AT LEAST one page per day. This is an exciting time, because a few months ago I felt like I was never going to make it back. I just needed a little wind in my sails and, candidly, a few visits to a doctor regarding mental health. It has been the biggest obstacle and I am finally inching along after a years long battle with my own mind.
Thank you so much to those who have been hanging on all this time. We are back and we are drawing A LOT! Here is a sample page from Chapter 3. It’s just one of many, so please look forward to the rest.
