Hey hey! Glen and myself are back after two accidental weeks on hiatus! Of course we had to come back because it’s October and Halloween season is the best of the year, especially living in New England which has such a steep tradition of horror. This week’s comic reflects this beautifully combining the Headless Horseman with the most terrifying things to ever come out of a cabbage patch. Happy October everyone!
The Making of Glen
I must admit that all these little breaks I keep taking from Glen are born to the fact that I have just been overwhelmed by life and I know with the current climate I am by far not the only one breaking under the stress. Similiarly, I have been struggling with profound disillusionment and disappointment in the human race so I felt the need this week to draw something kind.
And boy was it a challenge! My first attempt at drawing a horse resulted into a crude doodle befitting a drunk toddler. My second attempt inexplicably looked like a kangaroo which made no sense what-so-ever considering I had come to my sense by that time and was just tracing an actual horse. It took a great deal of tweaking before it looked somewhat OK. I’m now mildly satisfied with my efforts. Next week shall be better.
