Like it sez, season four is currently on hold, mainly because I don’t have enough hours in the day to create new comics. I’m just that busy. Of course, I still write comics every day. It’s just a little time consuming to get the art down. So in the meantime, explore the site, check out [...]

Logging on to Facebook always makes for a depressing read. Seeing all those faces enjoying life… going to parties and traveling the world. And then there’s the damn friend count, an arbitrary measure of how many people love us. Reminds me of a time in school when a kid came up to me and asked [...]

Welcome to season four. You didn’t think I’d bring it back, did you? Well, I gotta tell ya, it was a lot harder than I remember to create one of these damn things. I was pouring over page after page of bad jokes, trying to find something I could be happy with. And as I [...]

Welcome, or welcome back, to Running on Empty. In the past few months, I’ve redesigned and reformatted the site, making it easier on the eye, and a little more inviting for the small audience that this comic has. So what’s new? Well, the comic itself is slightly larger, and in the upcoming season, it will [...]

This comic actually marks the first time all three main characters have interacted with each other. Although, I did find a comic from season two that featured all three of the guys, but I never published it. The punchline was too morbid. ‘S funny… as in-yer-face as this comic is, the jokes you see are [...]

Anyway, I’d like to thank you for reading season three of Running on Empty. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed creating [...]

Have you ever seen your reflection in a dream? I did recently. I looked at a piece of tinted glass, and saw a silhouette. My hair was pushed up in the front, and for some reason, I had bandages on my face, visible in the dim light. As far back as I can remember, the [...]

This has to be one of my favorite comics this season. It perfectly balances my aggressive pessimism with my in-yer-face humor. That’s the value of the Dan character, in case you missed it; he’s three-dimensional, angry, frustrated, and profoundly morose. Because he knows that life sucks, and there’s nothing that’s going to change that fact. [...]

True story. I originally intended Mr. Dark to be one of my other characters in disguise, but then I thought it was too obvious, so I made him a separate character. Then I tried to define him as one thing, then another. Now he’s a complete unknown, but there are several interesting directions I have [...]

This comic began as an attempt to portray how females view me, as if I’m some partially deformed zombie with a look of fear bordering on malice on my face. When scripting this piece, I changed the dialogue to second person, since the narrator (Jake) is speaking to both Daniel and the audience. In speaking [...]
