It’s been awhile, but here at last is the next page of “The Strange High House in the Mist.”. It’s been a busy last two months, the best part of which was spent in Point Reyes in California’s Marin County, a beautiful foggy stretch of green and gray (marred only by the occasional tidal smell of dead fish) which made me think of “Strange High House”’s New England seashores. Returning to San Francisco inspired, I dug through art books of littoral life and sea creatures, and after weeks and weeks of other projects and other distractions, I’m back.

The next page will go up on Friday, November 13!

This page is two weeks late, for which I can only apologize. This is my favorite part of the story — but unfortunately I’m really busy for the rest of the month with work and with promotions for my new series, “King of RPGs,” so I can’t make a weekly update schedule for awhile. (Please see the comments thread for more updates about when I’ll be able to return to the series.)

Sorry for the delay, but please hang in there and come back! I really appreciate your emails and comments.

The latest page! The next page will go up on Friday, August 21, the day after H.P. Lovecraft’s birthday.

A new page, and it’s only 2 AM! The next page will go up on Friday, August 14.

If this page appeared in print rather than online, it would be the second half of a spread which begins on page 6. The next page will go up on Friday, August 7.

I’m at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend — if you’re there, please stop by the Del Rey panel on Saturday afternoon, where I’ll be talking about my upcoming series drawn by Victor Hao, King of RPGs.

This page was penciled in Seattle with the encouragement of my girlfriend, inked at a Denny’s while eating cheesecake and talking to my friend Aaron Hahn, completed in the lobby of the San Diego Marriott, then scanned at the FedEx Office at 6th and C downtown. The next page will go up on Friday, July 31st.

This page was drawn in Seattle with the help of my tireless girlfriend, her scanner and her coffee press. The next page will go up on Friday, July 24.

For this page, I owe thanks to Konstantin Pogorelov for bringing me food and looking up period cars while I was hastily drawing. The next page will go up on Friday, July 17.

Page 3 of “The Strange High House in the Mist!” The next page will go up on Friday, July 10.

I’m indebted to Tim Kirk’s depiction of The Terrible Old Man from Meade and Penny Frierson’s 1970s fanzine “HPL.” I had this fanzine lying around the house (borrowed from my dad’s collection) from the time when I was about 12 years old, and when I look back at it, I can’t understate the importance that the underground-style artists therein — Herb Arnold, Denis Tiani, Mike Scott, Richard Corben, etc. — had on my visualization of Lovecraft. And my art style in general, in fact. I actually read “HPL” before I read any Lovecraft stories. Definitely check it out (along with pretty much any issue of “Nyctalops”, which I didn’t discover till later, and which really needs a Wikipedia entry) if you stumble across a copy at a horror bookstore somewhere.

It’s up — the second page of my new Lovecraft adaptation, “The Strange High House in the Mist.” The next page will go up on Friday, July 3.
