The very precise art style I used for “The Longest Night of the Summer” was nice, but very tedious, and I was angry at how often I bailed out by using cut and paste to put her together. It also took too damned long, with the 12 strips in the Longest Night of the Summer taking almost three months for me to draw (fittingly, last summer).

From here forward, I decided to use a much sloppier, but more honest drawing method. Yes, the art quality’s gone downhill, but ultimately that means more comics for you. A comic every week or two just doesn’t cut it.
