Patreon bonus strip for MAY 2025 — CARLA

by David M Willis on May 26, 2025 at 10:45 pm
Posted In: Blog

Every month at the Dumbing of Age Patreon there’s two new exclusive bonus strips — one that patrons get to vote on, and another that’s my choice!  This month, folks tied their votes for CARLA and Jocelyne, and I broke the tie by choosing the one who’s not currently standing in the middle of a very-tedious-to-draw crowd.   So enjoy this strip about Carla, introduced by this preview panel of not-Carla.   Read this bonus strip and hundreds of previous at the Dumbing of Age Patreon!

Also, if you pledge up to $5 or more per month, you can read TOMORROW’s strip RIGHT NOW, every day!

The Other Patreon: Joyce/Joe and non-chicken fingering

by David M Willis on May 15, 2025 at 10:20 pm
Posted In: Blog

I have a NSFW Patreon, did you know? And while usually it’s just shitposting naked people, sometimes once in a blue moon something canonical pops up. Not a story. But an image, a snapshot of something that probably actually happened.  Like the culmination of Joyce and Joe’s sweatervest date!  Anyway, I drew some manual stimulation, while certain other currently-BSODing folks might be dreaming of womanual stimulation.

And also, separately, I animated it.  That’s what I went to college for!  May as well put that skill to use.

(My Bluesky feed has a similarly-cropped sneak peek at what THAT looks like)

Second Patreon bonus strip for April 2025 — ROBIN

by David M Willis on May 7, 2025 at 9:32 pm
Posted In: Blog

Every month at the Dumbing of Age Patreon there’s two new exclusive bonus strips — one that patrons get to vote on, and another that’s my choice!  This month’s second bonus strip is… an unused strip starring ROBIN that would’ve run April 16, but dropped because it did stuff to narrative flow.  Check out this strip and the backlog of hundreds of previous bonus strips at the Dumbing of Age Patreon!

Also, if you pledge $5 or more per month, you can read tomorrow’s strip a full day-and-five-minutes early, every single dang night! You could be reading tomorrow’s strip right now!

Book 14 Kickstarter $60k update: THE DREAMHORSE MAGNET tier unlocked! Final hours!

by David M Willis on May 6, 2025 at 12:28 pm
Posted In: Uncategorized

With 11 hours left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, we’ve unlocked the thirteenth magnet and final stretch goal at $60K!  That’s right, it’s THE (not homoerotic at all) DREAMHORSE magnet!  Clocking in at a relatively enormous 5.5″x5″ size!  (that’s 14cmx12.7cm for all you still-free-world people)

Pledge at THE DREAMHORSE MAGNET tier to get a The Dreamhorse magnet along with your book!   (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!)  Or if you’re aiming for The Dreamhorse plus two or four other magnets of your choosing, huzzah, there’s the PICK THREE or PICK FIVE MAGNETS tiers!  And if you want all of them unlocked during this campaign?  Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!

That’s it!  That’s the final update before… THE END!

Finish line at 11:45pm Eastern tonight!

$55K Book 14 Kickstarter update: LIPSYNCING LUCY MAGNET tier unlocked!

by David M Willis on May 4, 2025 at 9:55 am
Posted In: Blog

Three days left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, and BOOM!  The Lipsyncing Lucy magnet is unlocked at $55k!  Pledge at the LIPSYNCING LUCY MAGNET tier to get a Lucy magnet along with your book!   (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!)  Or if you’re aiming for Lucy plus two or four other magnets of your choosing, huzzah, there’s the PICK THREE or PICK FIVE MAGNETS tiers!  And if you want all of them unlocked during this campaign?  Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!

Unlocking next at $60K is… the final, thirteenth magnet: THE DREAMHORSE!  It’ll be 5.5″x5″ which would be… probably definitely the largest magnet I’ve ever done.  It won’t be to exact scale with the others, mind you, since that magnet’d be like a foot tall and wouldn’t fit in a book, much less a stamped envelope, but it’ll be to scale with… your BJ Cat magnet, if you have that one.

And just under three days remaining!  This thing shuts down Tuesday night.

"The Late Mr. Kent" is damn good television. Probably one of the best-written episodes of television written in the 1990s. Not just animation. Television period.

Still researching old sleaze paperbacks and legitimately wondering if the book designer asked the author or editor what should be the tagline at the top and they mumbled out the above tagline and the book designer just...wrote it down.

Terrible news! The back of box render for the Classified Series Legacy Firefighter seems to imply Shipwreck's house caught on fire.
The back of box render for the GI Joe Classified Series Legacy Collection Firefighter. A firefighter in the foreground poses dramatically with the jaws of life. Another firefighter in the background sprays a wrecked car with foam. A third firefighter even further back escorts a man away from a burning house.

Every webcomic has two stories: the story the artist is telling and the meta story of watching an artist make creative choices over the course of many, many years. You get to watch art evolve and change in real time.
kyssimmee.com's user avatar🐊 @kyssimmee.com ⋅ 2d
not to wax poetic about webcomics but I think one of the best things about webcomics is that reading them forces you to confront the fact that artists evolve and change over time, and that "style" is a necessarily evolving thing
