Hubris- Branches and Rocks Will Stop Your Clock…

Jan13

Chapter: Comic

I think we leave off skiing and snowboarding for a bit, here. Hope you enjoyed it. The big news on this end is that the National Cartoonist Society (I’m a member, isn’t THAT weird) has added a division category to their annual awards. It’s ‘webcomic’, though someday, I reckon it’ll have some other nomenclature, as everything in the world goes to the web. There might be better webcomics than Hubris, but I don’t care. I’m submitting. Cross your fingers for Hubris! Also, click on ‘VoteHubris’ and StumbleUpon and Google+ and Tweet some Hubris and all that other stuff. ‘Like’ the Facebook page and everything. Every word out there in the cloud is another reader someday, and when there’s enough readers, I’m updating every day and having more fun with you guys. ‘Cause I like you and all.

Hubris- Falling Down Again

Jan10

Chapter: Comic

Well, there you go. The alternate version of Monday’s cartoon, long and tall. Whattaya think? Better? Annoying? Different Good or Different Bad?

We could even take it one step farther and stack this same cartoon onto the end of itself. Hubris could drop over endless cliffs in a cartoon loop. Somehow, I don’t think I’ll post that tomorrow.

Hubris- Changing Needs

Jan09

Okay, little feedback needed here. Today’s cartoon is newspaper format. That means it’d fit neatly into the spaces that newspapers and syndicates decided they need cartoons to be.

Now, since Hubris is a webcomic, I could have (still can, I guess) redesign the whole thing to take advantage of the fact that it’s on a webpage. Instead of a series of panels running horizontally at the same height, would YOU rather see a clever use of a tall panel where Hubris can fall and fall? Remember that you’d have to scroll down to see the whole thing. Would the novelty of a more dramatic panel arrangement help or hinder your enjoyment of a webcomic?

Click on the comments section below and say a word or two about that, if you have a minute. Thanks!!

Hubris- Call For You

Aaand the dinner date ends on a happy note. Hope you enjoyed it.

As for me, I got a new (used) trials bike coming tomorrow, so if I don’t break a wrist, I think Hubris might be practicing his endos next week. I’ll let HIM break the wrist.

Don’t forget to click on a few things over there to the right, and tweet about Hubris and generally let folks know we’re here. I finally ordered some stickers and I’ll need to think of clever ways to pass ’em out soon. Wanna suggest something?

Hubris- Falling Down

Dec30

Chapter: Comic

I used to tell my parents what I was doing on weekends. I quit. It makes them nervous. When you fork over that much money to get a kid raised, you hate to think he’s going to wind up stuffed under a rock on some nameless river. Seems like bad investing or something.

Hubris- Fixing Dinner

Dec28

by Greg Cravens on December 28, 2011 at 6:24 am

Chapter: Comic

In my family, the jokes usually revolve around a tendency to burn the rolls, not the kitchen itself.

This story arc is built out of several different versions written years ago. In fact, it’s probably the distillation of several different dinner dates with Mr. and Mrs. Biner. For proof of that, today’s cartoon was inked in 2003- it’s been ready to go for years. The previous cartoon was a general idea, but there was no script nor sketch until a couple of days ago. The one before THAT was written and sketched up long back, but had Hubris dressed in his hat and shorts. I can’t figure out where that came from. The two previous had prepared sketches, but they were off-size and Mr. Biner looked different. Had to redraw those. And there was one cartoon from that version that I had to toss out completely- it no longer fit the mood of the rest of the strips.

Isn’t this behind the scenes stuff fun?

Long story longer, I waded through a lot of stuff so old that it was sorta new to me again. I got to play editor with my own work and be a little objective about it, which is a luxury I won’t have with Hubris much longer. The old originals pile is getting smaller and smaller. Soon, nothing but brand new ideas here in the house o’ Hubris.

Stay tooned.
