Even though 2021 did its best to stop me, I still made it to #500!
I don’t know how I did it, but somehow I managed to work on comics through the 500s. It’s the longest I’ve done any comic and outside of the site itself the longest spent on any project. What started as me playing with art styles followed by needing a way to open a weekly wrap-up of comic reviews became something I’m almost proud of. Jake & Leon is basically a shorter commentary that allows me to practice on my art. October 26th is supposed to be the anniversary but with various issues and the Scooby-Doo intro retrospective I missed it. So let’s fix that.
Every year I like to go through the comics of the previous year and find my favorites. It could be a joke I really liked, something I did in the drawing that I’m proud of as someone of questionable drawing talent, or just one that for whatever reason was fun to make. I did miss a few but not as much as 2021 because I didn’t have a surgery to deal with. I did, however, take July off. So with that let’s take a trip back through a year’s worth of the crazy actions of Jake, Leon, Bill, Meredith, Beth, Max, Fizzbin, and the other characters and parodies that I’m still proud of one year on.
