Hah hah WHOOPS
Okay so I’ve never met the voice actors on Adventure Time and it turns out that photo I posted last night isn’t of them! How embarrassing. DID YOU KNOW: sometimes it’s hard to be on the internet because you don’t know who to TRUST
EDIT: dudes it was a photo that I came across on the internet, I wasn’t taken in by an in-person fraud where people PRETENDED to be them...

Cyber Woman with a Corn appreciation post
The one where she smiles enigmatically at a corn at a slight angle is my new desktop background, I spent some futuristic “credits” that were about to expire on her and I have no regrets

Adventure Time: from script to finished comic!
I thought it’d be fun, today — when the comic is out and you can buy it and you should!! — to share how the first page of Adventure Time #1 went from start to finish.
Initially I knew I wanted to tie the comic to the show and let people know, yes, this is the same thing you’ve been watching on television, just in another medium. It seemed like doing something with the...

Fashion It So: Haven - 1.11 →
Seriously why would you read any other blog on tumblr when Fashion It So is clearly the best, click through, read the whole thing, come back and tell me how right I am
sttngfashion:
From a chat dated 12/27/11:
Charlie: so that episode that is in your TNG zine, Haven, i was gonna do that one, but then i saw it’s the first Luxwana ep, and i didn’t know if you, like, wanted it Anna:...

In this post Andrew talks a bit about gender-neutral pronouns. Since introducing “thon” in the comic I’ve used it casually in place of “they” in later comics once or twice, being the trouble I want to see in the world, etc.
Any new gender-neutral pronoun is going to sound weird (we use pronouns ALL THE TIME in English, and any changes to them will stand out like...
All the Books I Read in 2011
You should read this list! Emily read way more / more interesting books than I did in the year, and her reviews are really good. We have two books of overlap, but both are ones that I’ve read more than a year ago (I’ll give you a hint, the two books involve DEVILS and HEIGHTS THAT WUTHER respectively)

Here’s the big one. Here’s last year’s list. I did manage a few more...
MOVIES WATCHED IN 2011
This one is the big one! A lot of overlap with Emily’s list due to MOVIE NIGHT (which stopped at around the same time I stopped my list… COINCIDENCE? Anyway let’s revive movie night)
“Faking it” - this is a Channel 4 series but it’s documentary style and I’m counting it for this list. Cellist to DJ and Burger flipper to Cook were good
Octopussy - New...
VIDEO GAMES PLAYED IN 2011
This year I took Emily’s idea and extended it to the realm of DIGITAL INTERACTIVE ART. Again, only to the first bit of the year, because I stopped due to Circumstances.
Amnesia - The Dark Descent - survival horror, only you don’t have any weapons and can’t hurt anyone. Get into the mood and it’s terrific - I screamed out loud several times, which never happens in a game...
BOOKS READ IN 2011
Inspired by Emily’s list, I kept this list going to about mid-year, when I stopped because of Machine of Death. That’s why it’s so short! HONEST.
1001 Nights of Baccus (Eddie Campbell) - I love Eddie Campbell, and this is a bunch of shorts about keeping the God of Wine up with a story so the pub won’t have to close. Fun because the style of comics changes with each...
All the Films I Watched in 2011
birdlord:
It’s time for that thing I do! Here’s last year’s list. Asterisk means a rewatch, numbers in parentheses are release dates. Let’s DO THIS:
1 - Centurion (10) - Jeremy was given this movie at a secret santa type-deal. The tradition continued with a New Year’s Day viewing of a secret santa gift. What was it?? You’ll have to wait a year… 2 - * Octopussy (83) 3 - The Great Train Robbery...

UPDATE
There has been some concern that my New Year’s Resolution is Ultra Sucky and Unawesome, and should involve things like punching more bears. Did you know: ALREADY have I punched all the bears?? It is a fact. If you don’t believe me, feel free to ask any bear.
Did you know: you can tell bears from furry humans by the bumpy cartoonish bruise on their heads, covered by two bandages...
New Year's Resolution: BETTER AT EMAIL
My resolution this year is to be better at communication: so many people have emailed me and not gotten responses when they really deserved one.
My current Email Technique is that everything goes into a giant inbox, and stuff that I can fire of a quick response to gets replied to right away (excellent!), and stuff that doesn’t need a response doesn’t get replied to (hooray!), and...
jephjacques: SO YOU WANT TO START A WEBCOMIC →
One of the most common questions I get is “Hey Jeph! I want to start a webcomic of my own, BUT I DON’T KNOW HOW!!! WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!”
WELL HERE’S HOW.
STEP 1: COME UP WITH AN IDEA. This is a complex process and really worthy of its own entire article, so I’m not gonna touch on this here. But…
Jeph wrote this over a year ago but I still link people to it when they say “Hey, what...
Phew Nobody Registered TopatoCo.tumblr Yet
topatoco:
Now that we have a van, the next logical step was to set up a tumblr. I think maybe we’ll just post what all we just got in stock so you ain’t got to keep refreshing that thing that you want everyday, who knows.
