Silly Kingdom WEBCOMIC!


Hey everyone! We are publishing Silly Kingdom as a webcomic! Read the complete 1st issue over at:


Silly Kingdom #2: A New Steed Indeed will begin updating weekly May 17th (right after the Toronto Comic Arts Festival)

It was fun trying out small-press publishing with Silly Kingdom, but with our busy day jobs it’s difficult to stay on top of printing, shipping, etc. What we want most is for people to be able to read & enjoy our comics. So, we hope you’ll follow along on Silly Kingdoms’s webcomic journey!

80s Kingdom


Listening to a lot of fun 80s synthpop while pencilling Silly Kingdom, so I decided from now on SK is set in the 80s. I’m sure Shaggy will agree!! :P
And then our friend Adriana gave Alengrimrickshaw an 80s make over. So rad!
