January
If you’ve noticed the radio silence over the last few months, there’s a reason: life completely kicked the shit out of me.
A lot happened in a very short amount of time. Work stress, a forced move out of a workspace I loved, some heavy personal losses, and ultimately the end of an eight-year relationship with a woman I love dearly. I was devastated, and for a while, I lost the motivation to do much of anything—let alone make comics.
I had to put my long-form webcomic, Cabrón, on indefinite hold and start picking up the pieces.
Eventually, I started drawing again. I made comics to process what I was going through, to get some of it out of my head, and most importantly, to get myself drawing again.
And somewhere along the way, I remembered something pretty simple:
I still fucking love making comics.
So, I’m bringing Spider Barks back. I don’t know exactly where this version of Spider Barks is going yet. And honestly, I’m okay with that.
But I’m drawing, and I’m making comics. And that feels damn good.
