My sister, Katie.
Anyway, the Kickstarter is in it’s last week. We’ve generated almost $8000, and there’s still 4 days to go! Thanks everyone! If we reach $10,000 I’ll be doing a  special 3 page story for the book introducing Medusa’s Mom. Even if we don’t reach that amount you guys have already donated enough to unlock all 4 of the bonus stories. The book will have 22 pages of extra never before seen comics, plus some other cool stuff! If you’re interested in getting a signed book with a sketch, a limited edition print, a walk on role in Season 2 or one of the other cool rewards, there’s still time to contribute!
Also, Noel Burns interviewed me about the Modest Medusa Kicksarter for his blog Kicking it Geek Style. Check it out!
If you live in Seattle come see me at the Jet City Comics Show on the 24th. I’ll be sharing a booth with Barry Deutsch (Hereville) and Ben Hsu (Dubious Company). I likely won’t have anything to sell you, but I’ll be happy to do a sketch for you and give you a Chocodile.
On the 1st and 2nd of Oct I’ll be sharing a booth with Ewen Cluney (Neko Machi) at APE!
where did the cigaret go in the 3rd panel?
Her other hand. Unlike some people in this comic, she has two.
Oh, we already went that route with the jokes? Haha
Aww <3
great page. I plan to donate to the jumpstart program, just need to wait till Friday
I do now.
Am i the only one who hears the voice of howards mom from the big bang theory when she speaks?
I love how mom is completely oblivious to the fact that her daughter’s friend is “blue” (see previous comic), has a tail, and snakes for hair. This is EXACTLY how it is in real life. I am constantly amazed at how adults can (and do) consistently tune out anything to do with their kids. “Do your homework!” But mom, I have suddenly grown a third arm! “Nice try. Do your homework and take out the trash!” (Another great page Jake–esp. last panel–and I used to smoke. I used both hands too!)
great you have a thrid arm now you can take out the trash while doing your homework
Seriously, Dusty, it’s a Portland thing. If you lived here you’d understand.
okay now i’m confused as to who is what, so i’m assuming jake is a guy marah(who i thought was a boy till i reread something) is a girl and the person whose sitting in the bed missing an arm i’m assuming is a guy
Guys (probably): Jake, Charles, the Chainsaw Unicorn
Girls and women (probably): Marah, Katie (Jake’s Sister), the Mermaids
medusa… you forgot medusa, jake
It’s a mystery to everyone!
Sooo MM is…?
A snake.
AND MM’s MOMMY!! (I hope you hit $10,000 cuz I wanna see her kick some butt!)
Unsolicited Political Ad: Vote Chainsaw Unicorn 2012! He’s red, and white… and stuff.
Shouldn’t Jake’s disappearance be causing a bit more uproar? His roommate lost his arm, and he has an open wound on his stomach. Even if no one believes the chainsaw unicorn story, they should be looking into what caused those wounds. Jake was seen by an first responder, so they should know that the wound is pretty serious. If they find out Jake is missing, finding him would become a priority, I think.
Maybe Jake’s sister doesn’t care and Marah and Medusa didn’t think to tell anyone else, but I think there should be some people trying to figure out what this was and what happened.
Good point. I’ll address this eventually.
I think I may be able to stretch to the $75 however I’m in the UK, do you know if you would be able to send the Chocodiles international?
Hi, Love the comic 😀
You know, I have no idea. I’ll look into that.
One of the things I love about reading MM is that I have actually met so many of the people in it. 😀
She’s chauffeuring a snake girl around that’s started calling her “Mom,”
She’s kind of taking this in stride isn’t she?
My sister, right?
i wonder if marah will call medusa’s mom, mom too. whoa, free chocodilles! throw one over here! lol!
Jake, is that a typo in the commentary re: the extra content in the book? 4 bonus arcs of 3 pages each would be 12 extra pages of content. Or am I overlooking something extra? :hopeful_puppy_dog_eyes:
No typo. There’s also an extra 10 page story that was always planned for the book, regardless of how the Kickstarter did.
Cool! I’ma go wait by my mailbox right now! ;-P
Actually, you probably already mentioned that, somewhere, and it just slipped my memory. But it still makes my day!
Ima wait *in* your mailbox and eat your chocodiles! (hiding out in toilets scares me)
C’est cool; say “hello” to the mailbox spiders for me!
Jake i have the feeling that your well being is not at the top of your sisters list of priorities. also again those glasses are freaking me out.
Your brother being flushed down a toilet by multiple anaconda-sized blue snakes to a magical land connected therein where girls have SNAKES for hair and mermaids SMOKE doesn’t count as an emergency?
…. Unless the next words outta her mouth are “That counts as a fantastical adventure, full of fantasy and heroism”, I hate yer sister. Hahahah. 😛
Well Jake i complain about your Ushaped glasses {if they were D shaped they’d have an line at the top] Then i Played “Catherine: Love is Over” and {Katherine {the girlfriend} not Catherine {the other woman}} has the exact same type of glasses.
I know! I saw that and I was so happy!
Ha Jake in the lets wreck everything Marah yells out eat darts snake Girl so would that kind of say what MM is
yes, yes. It was funny, when I was writing out that list I knew I was forgetting someone, but I couldn’t remeber who.
poor medusa! y u forget her? D=
