Fashion don’t! Guys, this is a little advice from your uncle Doug. When you’re trying to get your girl to marry you, don’t be turning into a rat creature during dinner. You may have your way of doing things. I’m saying there aren’t any rules set in stone about proposing, but turning into a rat [...]
I need to give a huge thank you to some good guys that have sent THOUSANDS to Ratfist! A lot of you know by now that webcomics is a tough biz, there are great comics (some created by many of you) that are still having a hard time generating a big audience. So I’m super [...]
And we’ve been ‘on the air’ for a month and the beef is finally about to hit the fan. Thank you all for giving Ratfist a shot over this last month! This has been a real trial to keep up with this schedule. It’s particularly hard on the colorist Katherine Garner, because she cares a [...]
Look at Milt in panels 3 and 4. Specifically, look at his ears. Yeah, they float off his head. That’s been the number one question so far about Ratfist is his floating ear. It’s not a big deal, it’s just the way I draw mouse ears. I’m not sure where I picked that one up [...]

I went on vacation. I visited my parents and brother in Colorado. My brother is a coal miner, which [...]
We had a great weekend! RATFIST was featured at one of my favorite pop culture websites io9: Earthworm Jim creator brings rat-powered superhero to webcomics But on to our one-eared hero. A lot of you have been wondering just what kind of woman would date Ricky, much less be in the running for marriage. I’d [...]
I’m going to trademark that saying, “You got chumped, chump!” In a few years from now, when the President of the United States says, “You got chumped!” you’ll know where it came from. That saying is my cultural legacy to the world. Here are the rules of the phrase: 1. You may use the phrase [...]
For those of you placing bets that Milt wouldn’t survive that fall you’re sick-sick-sick! And happy Friday! I promise I didn’t intentionally put a total cliff-hanger right over a weekend! Thanks again for all of those kind comments…you’re really generous. It makes the comic that much funner for us to work on! Keep tuning in, [...]
