    Ooohhh … He looks – desperate.

    No hat. He lost his hat. Which had a lot of his personality. Alert! Alert! We have a Lost Hat emergency! This is Not a Drill! Alert! Alert!

    Hang in there, I’m a retired fireman, and those pictures/videos have me sweating… The closest thing to a forest fire I ever fought was when a stupid tried to burn raked leaves on a windy day. 4 houses! Mostly grass and bush fires but, yeah.

    Good news, we are back at home and there was a home to return to. It’s been a crazy week and a serious near miss seeing as several other homes on our block burned. Terrible stuff but the Ranch persists.

      Welcome back.
      My mom’s whole town, Monrovia, seems to have survived so far, too, but it ain’t over yet.

Issue 22 Cover
Posted on January 8, 2025 by Dawn

Traditional post-issue comic cover! Episode 23 is currently TBA but we're hoping to have the first page out on January 22nd so as to not leave y'all hanging from the proverbial cliff for too long.

[1/9/2025 NOTICE: Some of you may know we live in the Greater L.A. Area and if you've heard about the wildfires here: yep, we're currently evacuated from our home and still unsure as to its fate. We grabbed our computers and backup drives so whatever happens we still have our files, but definitely expect some delays and cross your fingers that the worst we're going to end up having to do is throw food out of the fridge due to power loss.]

[1/11/2025 UPDATE: Good news, we are back at home and there was a home to return to. It's been a crazy week and a serious near miss seeing as several other homes on our block burned. Terrible stuff but the Ranch persists.]

Keepsakes of creation

Posted on December 28, 2016 by Clint
We have some folders stuffed with old papers. More importantly, we have hard drives and cloud storage that are the digital equivalent of the same. Dawn and I try to make sure that a good portion of the stuff we’ve produced over the years for Zombie Ranch exists somewhere in a recoverable format that’s either a high resolution image or something that can be scanned to produce one. It came in very handy when producing our trade paperback. Heck, it came in handy just this week for presenting our filler piece, which originally was hand-drawn by Dawn over six years ago. Old storyboards, scrawled notes on script printouts… we don’t save everything, but I try to keep enough around to provide glimpses of where we’ve been, in case it proves of eventual interest to ourselves or others. It’s not too weird of an instinct, as anyone who scrapbooks (or has a relative who does) can attest, but when you’re working on a project like this it takes on a whole other level, because hey, there might just be a group of strangers out there who have a real interest in your progression — if not now, than somewhere down the road in a place and time you may not even be able to foresee yet. Call it nostalgia, perhaps even call it borderline hoarding… for purveyors of fiction, I contend that hanging onto the keepsakes of your past is just good business.
