Fuckbrain Comix: The Toilet Plume and You
Originally published at benchilada. You can comment here or there.
This was the first Fuckbrain Comix that I’ve done using a way larger paper-11×14-and I’m well-pleased with the results. I’m using the same size for my next project-an adaptation of a wonderfully bizarre Chinese folk tale-and it’s working well for me there, too.
Much love to my sweet Robot, for it was she who convinced me to draw on nicer paper than just the stuff in the printer. (-_-;)
You’ll soon see various archives sections pop-up on the website, so keep an eye open for more posts about old comics being uploaded. Not sure if I’ll do a So You Don’t Have To archive here, but I might.
Anyroad, I hope this comic doesn’t make you feel dirty. If it does, go wash your hands.
Not that it will help.
Love,
benjamin
Who reminds you that this comic becomes copyright-free on April 1st, 2024.
