Hey, here’s a random story. Saturday night I ran into a young married couple who had some original art from one of my favorite cartoonists (and, coincidentally, Viper Alum) Wes Molebash! It was original art from his strip You’ll Have That.
I knew about all the materials he used, but seeing the actual artwork, it struck me that he draws just a bit bigger than I do, and I got a new appreciation for how he gets some of that line variation. Needless to say, I was totally geeking out.
And if you haven’t heard of it before, check out Wes’s latest strip, Max vs. Max. Wes has a way of making his comics very personal without losing entertainment value or making them self-serving. It follows recently-divorced Max. Also, You’ll Have That is still great, even in archive form.
I love Wes’ work – YHT was and is one of my all time favourite webcomics and I’m really loving Max Vs Max he’s really hitting his strides now I feel
Agreed! It’s one of those great strips that’s theoretically about a niche (recently-divorced or bachelor or whatever) but is really about several aspects of what everybody considers to be “normal” life.
