Hi! I was the author of the webcomic Simulated Comic Product. I had a pretty good run – starting from stick figures in 2005 and ending up with a moderately popular and moderately well-drawn strip in 2009. After four years, however, I had gotten all that I wanted out of the strip, so I shut it down. Gag strips are fun to write, but you eventually run out of jokes.
I’m done with gags, but I’m not done with comics. I’m going to write stories! With characters! And plots!!
I’ve posted the full run of SCP on this site, as well as some stories that I’ve done over the years. Starting next week I’ll be posting about a page of comics per week. I’ve got a couple of stories worked out, each of which will be about 10 pages long. There will be science fiction, and horror. Hence, Robot and Ghost.
Watch for the premiere of the first story “Embedded” next week! In the meantime, feel free to explore the archives – there are a couple of stories there that haven’t previously been posted online.
Very cool dude, look forward to it, loved SCP
Looking forward to it!
Just making sure, do I need to subscribe to a different RSS, or will I still be good from your old SCP one?
I’m a bit sad to see SCP go, especially with such a whimper. But I have the feeling I’ll like this strip more than I liked SCP, anyway.
I really enjoyed the (stopped mid-story) series about the little lost robot, and all the “where’s the joke? this sucks” naysaying got tedious to read after a while. Hopefully this will be more of the same, but without the complaints. Hooray.
I’ve changed the SCP domain to point at the new site, so everything should *just work*. If you have trouble with the feed, you could subscribe to the new one (the link is at the top right of the page).
What all wasn’t online before?
The collaborations, and the full run of the tinker. I hope you like them!
Cool! I’m looking forward to this.
Hello. This is kind of an “unconventional” question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you’ve got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this …so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I’ll just keep working on it one day at a time Thanks for any help you can offer here
It’s built in to the “Atahualpa” theme that I’m using.
I like your style, the fact that your site is a little bit different makes it so interesting, I get fed up of seeing same-old-same-old all of the time. I’ve just stumbled this page for you
The full run of The Tinker proved to be as good as I expected. I knew those cogs weren’t cheating, but I thought that perhaps the humans were. Looking forward to more great stories!
Yeah, although I am a bit disappointed, I was expecting something more? Oh, I really don’t know what I was expecting.
I must say though that the ending reminded me of the *very* old radio plays I used to stay up and listen to, a classical “The horror!”.
When I thought about it though couldn’t he just craw back up out of the pit? After all it was shallow enough for someone to grab his leg.
Oh and on another note, would it be possible for you to set up subscribe by email for the comments?
There should be a wordpress plugin that does it. Just email me if you need any edits to the theme for it to work.

Your new site design confuses and infuriates us.
And kinda ruins my book marks.
