Page 1/3. This’ll be a 3 pager which I’ll be finishing and posting on Tuesdays for y’all until the end of the month! I hope you enjoy some headcanons.
Also testing out TrueGrit’s halftone machine on this comic and… I gotta say y’all, I kinda love it! I’ve been wanting to do more halftone work but haven’t been able to find a look I like or a method that fits well with my workflow.

Had this idea back in December and it’s been pushed back and back until NOW! It was originally about Lupin with a black eye, but then then the finale of Zero came out and I liked Lupin’s dad way more than I ever expected! So Jigen’s dad is the jerk instead. My intention for “family” here is “we’re married” instead of “we’re brothers”.
Expect some more Zero comics this month, I’ve already posted it for $1+ patrons early but there’s a 3 page Lupin Zero comic coming up for y’all.
A secret art trade for a discord I’m a part of. The person I got really liked Part 2, episode 99 so I thought I’d make a comic loosely based on a scene from that. I highly recommend watching the episode, especially since the whole thing is on Youtube now.
My one page comic for the “When I Was Me” anthology;
a collection of autobiographical comics about the joyful and euphoric experiences of being transgender, featuring stories from trans people with a wide range of gender identities, ages, and backgrounds! 100% of the team working on When I Was Me fits under the trans umbrella, from pre-press to artists. With 12 interior illustrations and over 60 comics, this book is a wonderful reminder that the trans experience is full of beauty and happiness.
Edited by Eve Greenwood and Alex Assan. Cover art by C. A. P. Ward. Book design by Spire Eaton.
My comic in this book, for the family section, is about a moment I had with one of my niblings at the cottage. The kids in my life are getting a good grasp on what I am and what trans people are, and I am so happy to be that gateway for them.

Early in their partnership, Jigen is shot and when Lupin tries to help he discovers something he didn’t know about his partner. Unsure of how to react Lupin falls into old habits and is surprised when it doesn’t work out as planned.

With all the talk about Twitter and social media going on, I felt really inspired to do a comic about RSS feeds. This is a really barebones guide but I hope it helps you stay updated with your favourite webcomics, artists and websites.

Hey everyone! We’re having a big sale of older stickers, PDFs, prints and books over at the Topaz Comics Shop
The sale will run for the entire month of May and will end on May 31st.
We’d like to clear out some old inventory to make room for new merch and retire some old PDFs. There’s limited stock of the physical items so grab ’em while you can!
Page 2 of 2, make sure you read the previous page first!
Also trying out some new tones I downloaded, I kinda like them. Might do some more tone experiments with more one-shots in the new year!
Hey also you can get early access to these and other comics over on Patreon!

For context: Jigen’s new voice actor is also the narrator of Laid Back Camp (another anime I love dearly) and I had to combine the two!

An Ulf comic written by Jey back in April for a comic study month. For those who don’t know, Ulf is a long-standing OC of ours that we might do something with in the future. But here’s a fun one-shot of him at his job.

Part 4/4, be sure to read the previous three pages first!
I did the sketches for this one digitally and I think they look a lot nicer. That’s a wrap on this short comic, do you want to see more like this?
Part 3/4, be sure to click ahead right now to see the last page, but don’t miss the first two pages either!
I changed the toning just slightly on these two but I really like how they turned out. I was also a little too pressed for time to do another huge crowd shot. I did this to myself though, oops.
Part 2/4, be sure to click ahead right now to see the next two pages, but don’t miss the first page either!
I tried sketching the first two pages of this comic traditionally and then inking them digitally but I think my compositions and anatomy end up cleaner if I sketch it all digitially now.
Part 1/4, be sure to click ahead right now to see the next three pages!
This four page short was written and drawn by me (Jey), I’m dipping my toes into writing comics a bit moreI I tried out a new way of toning a comic, unsure if I like it yet or not, but these one-shot quick comics are real nice for testing out things without committing to a whole 300 pg comic! What do y’all think?
Part 2/2, make sure you saw the previous page!
I’m also thinking starting January I’m going to be posting Darumaka pages once a week; I want to get into a webcomic routine again, and these one-shots might be a rarer occurrence. I’ll be posting a larger Lupin comic over on my Patreon starting this month though, so go check that out!
