SOOOOOO glad that the campaign is now in the rearview. Sure, I still have a lot of work to do on the Deemarques and bonus sketches, but at least the ANXIETY of the campaign itself is past. Lol Now, on to new strips and final edits on the 4th Havenwolf Chronicles novel. But first... a wee break.

WE DID IT!!! Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this book happen! And now I can stop POSTING about this several times a day!!! I need a nap and a cookie. Not in that order. ;)

Ooh, today is the 90th anniversary of Lee Falk's the PHANTOM! As such, a drawing seemed appropriate.

With only THREE HOURS TO GO for the Finding Dee Vol. 3 Kickstarter, this strip from a few years ago feels VERY RELEVANT right now. Lol. If you've been pondering getting your hands on a snazzy new book in FULL COLOR, you're almost out of time. Check it out at findingdeekickstarter.com

Felt like winding down from work with some drawing JUST for fun, which inspired this Spider-Man drawing.

OMG! IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!!! We've got less than 24 hours to go and only 69 dollars to hit our stretch goals!! Help us get there NOW before it's TOO LATE at findingdeekickstarter.com It's over 75 pages of humor, heart, and (occasional) eye-popping 3d shenanigans! Don't miss out!

For those not in the know, this is an homage to Bob Weber Jr.’s wonderful SLYLOCK FOX comic strips! It's ALSO in color, to REMIND everyone to back the FINDING DEE COLOR COLLECTION Vol. 3 Kickstarter before it’s too late! findingdeekickstarter.com

The DEE-voted Fan Package For the fans who don’t do halfway. This tier stacks the complete Finding Dee trilogy with exclusive merch, desk gear, and stickers, turning your space into an epic DEE ZONE. If Finding Dee lives rent-free in your head, this is your tier. findingdeekickstarter.com

In my Facebook memories, I was reminded that this time of year we usually get the first fools spring. This year, not so much. Lol No cute jumpers spotted yet, but a couple of confused spiders have been seen in the house.

There are only 3 days left to back the KICKSTARTER and get your hands on over 75 pages of humor in FULL COLOR! You can also get original head sketches, DEEmarques, and bonuses like the "ART OF FINDING DEE", a full-color BOOK with an original drawing of your own choosing! findingdeekickstarter.com

Obviously, since it's Valentine's Day, this strip is a SUPER ROMANTIC showcase of the truest of loves. ;) In... my defense, Poe is VERY warm sometimes. If I added the cats, it would be even warmer.

Heidi's watching a documentary about a serial killer, but I can't take it seriously. Every time a caption or name appears on the screen, it uses the font "Cooper Black". Feels like I'm watching the Bob Newhart Show, or reading an 80s GARFIELD book. Lol #graphicdesignerproblems

Here's another JASON themed strip for this chilly Friday the 13th. And for the record, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't actually stand a chance against CHUCKY either. Lol There are only 3 days left to help us cross the stretch goal! Order your book NOW, before it's too late! findingdeekickstarter.com

In honor of today being Friday the 13th, here's a fun strip... set during spooky season... that honors everyone's favorite slasher in a hockey mask! AND It's another fun example of Katy Rewston's awesome coloring, just like you will find in the Finding Dee vol. 3! findingdeekickstarter.com

Back it today to get over 75 pages of FULL COLOR humor, heart, and more! It also features a BRAND NEW 3D story, and snazzy 3D glasses so you can get your 80s groove on! And if we cross our stretch goal, then those glasses will come SIGNED, with an original doodle on them! findingdeekickstarter.com

Sorry, but the new FINDING DEE Color Collection does NOT include any nudity. Get your minds out of the gutters, folks! findingdeekickstarter.com

Since it feels like LOTS of folks are doing these, here's my #meettheartist thingy! Meet the artist, folks. lol

I CAN’T be the only person who cups their hands to redirect the hot air out of these things? It’s FUN! Gross. But fun! In hindsight, I probably should have put myself in STORM'S tiara instead of Thor's helmet. lol Also... C'MON!!! Kickstarter! Stretch Goals! findingdeekickstarter.com

6 days to go and counting! Get your hands on a copy of FINDING DEE the COLOR COLLECTION Vol. 3! It's over 75 pages of queer chaos, pop culture references, puppy panemonium, cartoon calamity & genuine heart. It's a slice of transgender life you need on your bookshelf findingdeekickstarter.com

First off, no. The garbage never piles THIS high. It's an exaggeration to make the visual funnier. A pile this high would be EVERYONE'S fault. I feel like that needed to be said to fend off the comments that take the strip a wee too literally. lol findingdeekickstarter.com

The "Art vs. writing" comic debate is back. "Sigh". substack.com/profile/7757...

If you think we've jumped the shark with this campaign, you ain't seen NOTHING yet! Back FINDING DEE in 3D today and help us unlock our stretch goals and get your hands on page after page of humor, heart, and MORE! findingdeekickstarter.com

While FINDING DEE is a semi-autobiographical slice-of-life comic, it’s still a comic, which means I get to play. That includes sneaking in characters from my other comics for gags like this. Final week of the FULL-COLOR Vol. 3 Kickstarter! Don’t miss it! findingdeekickstarter.com

Help us unlock STRECH GOALS today! If we hit $6,500, then EVERY pair of 3D glasses sent out with the physical books will have ORIGINAL DOODLES on them!!! Rock the THIRD DIMENSION IN STYLE at findingdeekickstarter.com

Heidi, in spite of being a smidge older than me, has resisted this effect a little better. But honestly, I USED to be an insomniac. Now I get… normal amounts of sometimes restful sleep! Like some kind of… PEASANT! I feel like it’s robbing some of my cartoonist cred. lol findingdeekickstarter.com

A blog post WAY too long to post here: substack.com/@findingdee/...

As most of you are well aware... because obviously... it is EXCEEDINGLY cold. As such, my fingers have been cracking as usual, and I am practically bathing in lotion.

Woooot! We hit our goal on the campaign last night just before I crashed!! Now we can start reaching for some stretch goals and offer up some fun EXTRAS for everyone! The 1st is for physical backers: If we can hit $6,500, I'll be signing and DRAWING on every pair of 3D glasses included! Woooot!

We have a bunch of different rewards for the Finding Dee Kickstarter! You can also original art, custom drawn sketch covers, & YES... A NEW BOOB MOUSEPAD! This one, featuring the Heidi Dragon!! There are stickers, t-shirts & MORE all available as add ones! Check it out at findingdeekickstarter.com

EVERYTHING is better with color, even abounding fuckery! We keep inching closer and closer to the finish line, but we need your help! Back the Kickstarter at Findingdeekickstarter.com

Finding Dee The Color Collection Vol. 3 includes the tale of Heidi and I dressing up for 80s night Karaoke... & everything that went wrong! Pledge at findingdeekickstarter.com to help us unlock stretch goals like SIGNED, ORIGINAL DOODLES on every pair of 3D glasses that go out to physical backers!

When I had made this strip, it had been a few weeks of chaos in the wake of the so-called inauguration. In the single year since, that chaos has continued with new insanity, hatred, destruction, and corruption pretty much every single day. I hate that this feels more relevant than ever. Ugh

COMIC LAB by @bradguigar.com and @davekellett.bsky.social on PATREON has an awesome conversation this week about the 4 cartoonists, living or dead, you would love to have dinner with. www.patreon.com/posts/pro-ti... My List: • Charles Schulz • Chuck Jones • Jim Davis • Sergio Aragonés

If you love slice-of-life comics with humor, heart, and occasional boob jokes, do NOT miss the Finding Dee Color Collection Vol. 3 on KICKSTARTER NOW! 75+ pages of laughs, poop jokes, 3D pages, and RAGE!! findingdeekickstarter.com

So, 2 years ago now, I did a WONDERFUL online interview with Jamar Nicholas for the NATIONAL CARTOONISTS SOCIETY! As of today, that video is online for all to see. You can watch the video HERE: youtu.be/fPWp5sSFjVs?... And still time to back the FINDING DEE Kickstarter at findingdeekickstarter.com

I rarely do a strip with no words in it at all... a yawn notwithstanding. That said, I suspect I'm not alone in being irritated by this paradox of fatigue. lol We're ALMOST THERE! Help us cross the finish line and unlock our stretch goals on the Kickstarter at findingdeekickstarter.com today!

ZOD, I was sooooo happy watching the new MUPPET SHOW!!! It was... kinda perfect. It was just a new episode of the Muppet Show, like it had never stopped. FELT AND GLEE!!! MORE!!!!

GYAAAGH!!! We are only 666 dollars away from hitting our goal on the Kickstarter! Help us cross the finish line and unlock our first, awesome stretch goal!!! findingdeekickstarter.com

This strip was drawn last year, but I recolored it to celebrate the 53rd anniversary of Dik Browne’s Hägar the Horrible. Growing up, I knew little about my dad’s family, but an Ancestry DNA test confirmed Norwegian roots... and finally gave me an excuse for a Hägar gag.

Because I clearly don’t have enough to do, here’s an EXTRA strip this week! Like last year’s “Finding Dee Doodles,” these are horizontal, single-panel gags. This one’s in full color because I drew it live last night and posted it immediately. Everyone gets bonus color!

Sal Buscema’s work on ROM and Spectacular Spider-Man blew my mind, and his classic punch felt like the inspiration I needed this week. I’ve been wrestling hard with impostor syndrome, so I sketched it out as a reminder that I can kick its butt.

Totally impromptu LIVE DRAWING stream right NOW! I'm gonna ink on some upcoming Finding Dee single-panel gags! Hope yo see you there: www.youtube.com/live/5Kyd56y...

If you're a paid member of my PATREON or SUBSTACK and order a physical book from the Kickstarter, you will get a FREE sketchcard! Check it out today: www.patreon.com/posts/sketch...

There are a ton of great stories contained in the Finding Dee Vol. 3, including one of the LONGEST storylines I've ever done in the strip: The Trials of my Legal Name Change! Here's just a peek at that storyline, with a glimpse of how great it looks in color! findingdeekickstarter.com

Help us cross the finish line to unlock LOTS of juicy stretch goals and make the third volume of FINDING DEE happen at findingdeekickstarter.com

This is pretty much the ONLY day I can use this joke to remind folks about the Kickstarter, so I'm gonna take it. lol HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY! findingdeekickstarter.com

Drawing myself pre-transition is awkward, but important for this strip’s timeline. It’s highly simplified, skipping a lot, but it captures decades of trying to get my work out there. Any overlap with my current Kickstarter push is purely coincidental 😅 findingdeekickstarter.com

The lockdown may be well behind us, but the effects of stress eating sure isn't. Nor are there any LESS cause for the aforementioned stress eating. As such, the example of some of what you'll get in the FINDING DEE COLOR COLLECTION VOL. 3 is always relevant! findingdeekickstarter.com

Lots of work getting done this weekend, but sometimes you just need a Random kitty break.

This week's episode of COMIC LAB with @bradguigar.com and @davekellett.bsky.social is GREAT!!! And inspired a weird doodle idea I had to act on. Lol Check it out on their Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/149579...
