Pretentious Lightbulb Men: The Book of What


I did "The Book of What" at the lobby of my college, circa late September and mid-November 2000, probably waiting for a ride. This is my favorite Pretentious Lightbulb Men story and I made a sequel for it a few years later. It's about five pages, I made it into an infinite canvas comic for the web.

Pretentious Lightbulb Men: Mirror & Things People Shouldn't F#@k


At the time, I thought this was sad, but everyone thought it was funny. I still think it's sad. I did this September 2000. It's very strange, how different this person who drew this is compared to the person that's older.


....and now for something COMPLETELY different.
I remember doing something based on panel three for a visual effects class. If I ever find the copy of it, it goes on my Youtube. This is also a September 2000 piece. I know there are people on the Inter-Web who do not know what a porcupine is.

Pretentious Lightbulb Men: Love & Growth


Back when I went to art school, I really had very little time to draw for myself. I also lived with my parents, couldn't drive, no money, and of course, no girlfriend. For everyone who went to college with me, I'm sure these will bring you back a bit.


This was also an exercise in minimalism (and art therapy) where I tried to see how much I could express with very little. These two were done between July and September 2000.

And yes, college friends, I plan to be posting all your old favorites every now and then-- well, at least the ones that aren't too sad.

On a side note, my major influences for these came from Jhonen Vasquez and Don Hertzfeldt
