FAN ART: Howard & Nester

The following is a two page FULL-COLOR comic I've drawn for Howard Phillips, former Nintendo of America employee and the President of the Nintendo Fun Club (which later went on to become Nintendo Power). It's my entry for a "Howard & Nester" comic contest he is sponsoring on Facebook. Enjoy.

EDIT: I didn't win, but still, enjoy the comic.

PokéCast

Who wants to listen to me talk for 20 minutes?

For the first time on this blog, I'm doing a podcast...and an audio memoir.

Originally I was gonna write all of this down, but I felt that this method is a lot more natural and personal. That and I'm lazy.

For this chapter of my audio memoir, I talk about my obsession with Pokémon and how it was one of the first steps to getting me out of organized religion. Please excuse the language, noise artifacts and interference, and my ongoing digression: everything is pretty much true to my knowledge and it's hard remembering stuff from that far back.

Listen to the podcast here. You're free to download it if you want, too.

EDIT: Here's an alternate download link if the original page is giving you trouble.

Aside from the beginning and end music, the music played in the background is all done by YMCK. I hope you all have a safe weekend.

Bless,

Jokémon

Back in 2005, my friend Jose and I have worked on a 15 page comic in our spare time called "Jokémon". Jose wrote the plot and I helped with some of the gags, while I concentrated on the artwork. We planned to draw up two installments, a "Drugs" version and a "Sex" version, but only the "Drugs" version was finished. I've had sketches for the "Sex" version drawn back then, but they're either lost or thrown away by now. Six years later, there is still no "Sex" version available, and I doubt it'll ever be made.

What you are about to read is material that hasn't been read by anyone short of myself, Jose, and a few friends. It is the complete and unedited "Drugs Version" story, rife with violence, sexism, racism, homophobia, profane language, references to mindless sex and heavy drugs--all played for cheap laughs. In other words, this is a comic intended for (im)mature readers and NOT for children. Especially since said comic was created by two high school boys who found gay jokes and bad puns to be the pinnacle of comedy.

If all of this still hasn't deterred you from reading the comic, then please enjoy "Jokémon: Drugs Version":
