Game night with the guys, as the title says, has been my lifeline for the entirety of the pandemic and beyond. It started as an in-person meetup for tabletop RPGs, but when Covid-19 locked us all up in 2020, that said game night was put in peril. Thanks to modern tools for remote gaming, we … Continue reading “Game Night with the Guys”
I have a love-hate relationship with social media. I love that it keeps me in touch with awesome people that I meet, either casually or in the world of comics. I hate that we artists have become so reliant on it for everything from announcements to promotion. The social media algorithm is, in my opinion, … Continue reading “Social Media Should Not Be The Destination”
I promised to start 2023 by returning to regular blogging, so here we are. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, when the comic isn’t updating new pages, I’ll write about something. This will keep the site updating something new every weekday, just like I did back when I was writing for STAR POWER. This first entry is … Continue reading “Keeping My Resolution To Blog”
It’s that time of year again! Well, it’s the last time of this year. 2022 is coming to a close and The Legacy of Dominic Deegan is well into its third year. As always, I take a week-long break between Christmas and New Year’s Day to recharge, reflect, and honestly just be lazy for a … Continue reading “My 2022 Winter Break, and Moving Forward!”
I actually tested positive for Covid-19 last week, after I came home from DragonCon, but as a result I was unable to produce any new pages to update for this week. Thus, this is technically my “covid week,” even though I endured its effects on me last week. As of this writing, I’m on my … Continue reading “My covid week and The Legacy moving forward.”
This past weekend I returned once again to ConnectiCon, my favorite convention and the one show I’ve never missed since its debut (with the exception of the 2020 pandemic cancellation, which everyone missed). Every year I wonder if this will be the year that the magic fades, the crowd is lousy, or if I bomb … Continue reading “ConnectiCon and my Annual Summer Break!”
I returned to the world of Dominic Deegan three years ago on my fortieth birthday. My forty-third birthday is tomorrow, which means it’s also the third anniversary of The Legacy of Dominic Deegan! No one is on the internet in any meaningful way on a Saturday, so I figured I’d say something today. This has … Continue reading “The Legacy’s third anniversary!”
These past twenty years have been possible thanks to you, my wonderful readers. It’s you, all of you, who have inspired me to keep making comics for two decades. It’s all of you who have made this crazy career the most fulfilling experience of my life. I’ve received countless heartfelt emails over the years from … Continue reading “Twentieth Anniversary Week: All Thanks To You”
In May of 2013 I officially ended the story of Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire. It ran for eleven years and updated over three thousand comics. I had been doing nothing but that story for over a decade and was lucky enough to build a sizeable audience. I knew that stepping away from the one … Continue reading “Twentieth Anniversary Week: Ending the Oracle for Hire”
The most incredible thing about being in webcomics for twenty years has been the convention circuit. Traveling from convention-to-convention, month after month, setting up shop and putting yourself out there for new people to discover you. It’s been thrilling, life-changing, aggravating, and altogether the single best part of chasing this dream. The very first convention … Continue reading “Twentieth Anniversary Week: The Convention Circuit”
