Shaenon: Look! My cowriter, the estimable Jeffrey C. Wells, came to San Francisco to visit me! This is the first time we’ve seen each other since Skin Horse started, so you can imagine it was a momentous confab. Also, I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shaenon: Omigosh, check this out. Laurie Jacobs, who previously embroidered all the Annex One basement species, made little heroic silverfish embroideries for Jeffrey and me. She gave them to me at this year’s Stumptown Comics Fest, and they made my[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shaenon: Oh yes indeed. Laura Chapple, a.k.a. Irony-chan, celebrated creator of The Interstellar Tea House and other comics, sent us this rendition of an admittedly likely outcome of the field team’s current mission. Will Unity’s casual appropriation of werewolf parts[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shaenon: Aw, ain’t she cute? You just want to pat her on the head and hide all the sharp objects. This comes to us from Alicorn, who draws Hi to Tsuki to Hoshi no Tama. Thanks so much, Alicorn! Channing:[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shaenon: A hopelessly adorable rendering of Lucy the were-puppy by Jeff’s sweetie, Feech. Jeff is a complete sucker for animals in little hats and/or goggles, and Feech clearly knows him well. Oh yes. Channing: *no useful commentary, helpless squeeing noises[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shaenon: Man, dogs are hard to draw right. Every storyline in Skin Horse is just Jeffrey coming up with hard-to-draw things. Castles made of office supplies. Tiltrotor aircraft. Rampages. Dogs. Alaskans. I’m bushed. Channing: One of the benefits of having[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
