Last week it struck me that while it seems that every chud and their mother has a website, Twitter account or YouTube channel that gets hundreds of comments daily, I was lucky to get two or three a week. I really needed to know how many people were out there enjoying my work. I’m glad to see that I have so many weekly visitors! I hope you enjoy what you are getting.
If you didn’t announce yourself last week, please don’t hesitate to do so. We’re a family here, and we should all get to know each other better! (pours Kool-Aid.) I’m also thankful for the feedback you gave about what your favorite features are on this site. It will help me prioritize the site’s content, so keep the suggestions coming!
I was also grateful to hear how many people visit this site more than once a week. I am working hard to get myself into a position to post my strips more often, but this week, at least, your dreams are coming true! The FINAL installments of Clarissa Saves Halloween will arrive at last on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
As you all know, I am running a Kickstarter that I designed to help keep the content here coming on time. I appreciate everyone who has already pledged, but if you don’t have the money to spare, it is very easy to make a difference just by helping me promote the campaign! If you will only retweet this announcement you will be doing me a world of good!
Thank you again for your patience, and for chiming in!

IT HAS BEGUN! Death Ray 2020 is live and ready to receive your largesse!
My new Kickstarter serves both me and you. It will put a ton of current and upcoming Death Ray Graphics material into your hot little hands, and will enable me to keep putting out new content on time in the coming year, and maybe even get some things into print that might otherwise be consigned to a mere virtual existence of ones and (gulp!) zeroes!
If you are a fan, or even fan curious, PLEASE check out Death Ray 2020, and share the glorious news with all your friends on Tweetbook, InstaSnap and the just-one-hair-lighter-than-the-Dark Web!
Also: I have NOT forgotten about Clarissa. Full disclosure: I thought I had the ending to Clarissa Saves Halloween worked out in advance but then got blocked halfway through the story. Now, I have finally solved my dilemma and will have the last chapter for you soon.
Death Ray 2020 ends at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve. Please help me ring in the new year in style, and make 2020 awesome for everyone!

Introducing a new Whatisdeepfried.com feature: Pencilrama! Here I will show off my work- in-progress in its sexy penciled nudity!
For the next few weeks (or more!) I will treat you to the projects I am currently tackling one installment at a time before I slap ink all over them, beginning with Weapon Brown: Aftershock. Enjoy!

I keep trying to get away from these horrible, soul-absorbing podcasts, put they keep swallowing me and spitting out replicants of me with less and less hair! (I really have to stop falling asleep next to those things!)
This time it’s the pod of Bill Pepper that has consumed me. Hear me discuss Weapon Brown’s past and future on his “It’s a Podcast Charlie Brown” podcast!
He’s going in for the kiss.
It was rough going for a while, and I’ll admit that I did have a concession speech prepared.. but what do you know? Sometimes your get lucky! And no one is luckier than a guy who has fans like mine!
So yes indeed, my Kickstarter made it’s goal and then some! The last-minute enthusiasm was beyond my greatest dreams! (Okay, not beyond the dream where I’m flying naked over a land of birthday parties while shooting my enemies with blue eye lasers… but still, pretty awesome!) This means that the Weapon Brown graphic novel will soon be back in stock, and that an all new Weapon Brown comic book featuring tales of your favorite Weapon Brown characters is on its way!
Beyond that, the success of this Kickstarter is greasing the skids for all my upcoming projects, which will all benefit from my having Weapon Brown to anchor my publishing agenda. So if you enjoy Peek, Deep Fried and all the rest, good news! Everyone wins!
Thank you to all who pledged to my campaign, spread the word, or who just reads my work! Occasionally, as a creator, I have to pass the hat through the audience, and you guys were anything but stingy! This one’s for you!
The final week of the Aftershock Kickstarter is here! If you are reading this, you know what to do! Pledge! Then… take up your machetes and kill my enemies! (But pledge first, absolutely!)
Also, I am now on Instagram and posting like a hung, horny teenager who just learned how to share his dick pix! (Yes, that IS how I think of my comics!) Follow me @death_ray_graphics for stuff you’ve never seen before!
After the flu tried AND FAILED to kill me last week, delaying the launch of my Kickstarter, I rallied! I can now report that the Weapon Brown: Aftershock Kickstarter, which has been up and running all week, is doing just dandy!
As I write this I am closing in on 100 backers and nearing 25% of my goal. I’m feeling confident enough to even be thinking about the next item on my agenda in this Year of Death Ray Graphics, which is the second issue of Peek! But first, I guess I ought to reacquaint the public with that project.
Beginning next week, I will start putting out the entirety of Peek the First as a daily strip, running Monday through Friday, until the whole mess has been shared. There will be lots of great random humor for you to enjoy, and it will all lead up to the complete “Take Me To Work Day” Clarissa story that so many of you have been jonesin’ to read on this site!
(I have also, at last, put Peek the First up for sale in my store as a digital edition. Why read it for free when you can pay me for it??)
In the meantime I have begun working in earnest on the new material for Peek the Second, which I hope to have out in comic book form this summer. And you will soon be able to purchase the second issue of The Hero’s Journey as well. That one’s almost ready to come out of the oven!
There are just so many ways for you to give me your money that I can’t believe you have any left! GIMMEE!!
Friends, Romans, countrymen… all are falling victim to the flu that is ravaging our nation, and I am no exception! And so, the Kickstarter I planned to launch this week to fund the reprint of Weapon Brown must be put off one week while I let the mysterious elixir known as Nyquil fight the battle I am too weak to fight on my own.
So, tune in next Monday for the launch! And here is a glimpse of some of the glory that awaits you when you do!
