Black & Blue
Like Noir? Like Sci-fi? Like a weird mash-up of the two set in a what-if-the-set-for-Blade-Runner-wasn't-so-futuristic-and-more-like-80s-Chicago kind of environment? Like limited color palettes? Here ya go...
Some lady is trapped in a room somewhere forced to manufacture some kind of contraband, so she gets sick of it (obv) and tries to get out in the most insane way possible. Hilarity ensues. With robots. And crime syndicates. With robots.
So, for the last few years, Black and Blue has been a side project of mine, to create a world in my own visual style. Being a long time fan of classic film noir movies, I try to incorporate elements of design and story telling from that genre of film, and to create something unique and interesting which reflects the things which have inspired and drive me to do what I do.
My first foray into comic books was a one off first issue of Black and Blue, which has since changed and evolved to an online bi-weekly format. I find that it’s a good way of engaging and developing interest in Black and Blue, while still producing and honing my art.
Thank you for visiting, I hope you enjoy Black and Blue.

OK, so that was my "A-list" of comics I keep up on pretty regular. There are a few that are on the "B-list" for varied reasons; whether not updated recently or I only check on them every so often due to updates being infrequent, or they just haven't been around that long and the story isn't quite fleshed out. Let's get this B-list started with...
Blackgrass
Blackgrass is written and drawn by kino and edited by Ryan.
This is a story about a clairvoyant/spiritual medium named Rev. Abel Ruby, a sweet, well-meaning preacher who is slowly losing his faith and gets contracted into working for a lost soul that needs his help to find redemption! He begins to realise that “God” isn’t quite what he’s led to believe, and his perception of faith gets turned on its head! It is a long-form, fully coloured comic that will update Mondays and Fridays of every week!

A bit of an update...
Well, it looks like BlackGrass went on hiatus, it hasn't been updated for about a month now. I hope the author is doing ok...
Stand Still, Stay Silent just threw everyone for an emotional loop in the latest update, but it's a masterful bit of storytelling. No fair skipping to the end! Start at the beginning or at least after the prolog.
I also have a few more to share in the next few days or so, but it's bedtime so until then, check out the fine webcomic collectives at:

This one has moved from the B-list to my main rotation, it's that good. This is Ben Fleuter's spiritual successor to his earlier comic Parallel Dementia and recycles some of the main characters but with a more fully fleshed-out plot, and better artwork.
The Sword Interval
The Sword Interval is about a world on the verge of a supernatural apocalypse. Most of humanity goes about their daily lives trying to ignore the constant threat of magic and monsters, but a few face these dangers head-on. Fall is one such person. She has left behind the sheltered safety of the paranormal witness protection program in order to hunt down the monster that killed her family.

Edvard:
Still in the B-list because I'm not 100% positive what the hell is going on in this one, but an interesting read nonetheless. Apparently a trio of mad professors graduate college together and make a bio-chem lab with a big secret. One of them goes madder than the others, and hilarity ensues when a hapless repairman enters the fray.
Not Drunk Enough
A quick repair at a huge corporate lab during a late night shift should not have sent Logan into a hellish landscape fraught with monsters, but it looks like Lady Luck decided to give him the middle finger. Logan would like to give one back.
