Well okay then. This is my very first post here and I fully admit to having only the smallest bit of a clue as to what I'm doing (sense-smacking is welcome), but you all seem like a smart and friendly bunch, so here goes:

The Artist is Dead! is a strange little thing cobbled out of ink and ripped paper that I started this July, to see if I could. It's done entirely by hand (except for the part where, you know, I put it on the Internet) and centers on a small group of self-aware drawings trying to grapple with their place in the universe, and also to deal with the unspeakable beast of hate and terror who killed the artist that scribbled them out in the first place.

It's messy and kind of experimental but there is a Plot and regular updates (guaranteed; you can hold me to that) every Tuesday and Friday.



I don't actually have much of an Internet presence (I reiterate the above parenthetical RE: sense-smacking) but this project has prompted me to try and rectify that. Like I said, this place seems to have a good atmosphere -- and if nothing else I'm sure I'll discover plenty of good new comics through it. I look forward to exploring everybody else's stuff!

...Oh, and Chapter Three has just started, incidentally. This one's going to have monsters in.

One of the best webcomics I've seen in a long while, I've got a terrible habit for starting to read comics then getting distracted but I intend to start reading this

I haven't read the whole story yet, but I certainly like the experimental artwork using real materials.

Thanks! It's great to hear your thoughts.

i like this! well, i compulsively read all of it when i should've been doing something else, so i think that says a lot about the strength of this comics concept, and the pacing.

it reminds me of the cube (jim henson movie), and maybe the langoliers a little.
P.S. our comics are thematically linked i think

Yeah I also went to the start and found myself reading straight through to the end. I love sketch-drawn dude. I get the premise but don't really understand the story but I get that it is unfolding and we are not supposed to get it all yet. I guess I'm wanting things to revealed to me a bit quicker, but it never stopped me from wanting to see the next one.

This is nothing short of amazing. One of the best comics I've ever seen.

Maybe I'm just a huge sucker for the search for enlightenment, the quest for god, or whatever you want to call it, but I totally relate to this comic.

I got shivers down my spine when "the world is a lie" was written on everything. I've gone through that...

Please tell me you're writing this from personal experience lol
