Anatomy of Dogs!

Friends! Today we’re starting a fun new project: ANATOMY OF DOGS!

It’ll run, once a week or so, for the next 12-18 months. And then in 2025 we’ll Kickstart a book for it. That way, we get the dogs we love and deserve…but we’re not overrun with pups at one time.

Speaking of Kickstarter: You should know that the 11th Sheldon book will be Kickstarting VERY SOON, and that it’s gonna have Pickles on the cover, and that I love it so dang much. More news on that soon!

But for now, enjoy the first installment of ANATOMY OF DOGS! And have a great weekend, pals!


CHRISTMAS SHOP ORDER DEADLINE!

Hey pals! The deadline to get shop orders to you in time for Christmas is THIS THURSDAY, December 14th! We even found some lost inventory, so some older books are back in stock! Go check it out! Head over to SheldonStore.com and play Santa for your family…or even yourself!

NEW SITE!

Just in time for SHELDON’s 25th anniversary online, we have a beautiful new site! And there are a bunch of fun new features (see below)!

TWO HUGE THANK YOU’s!

  • The delightful design is all the handiwork of Beth Reidmiller. She brought this whole look to life. The mobile version is fun, but if you really want to see how much her design shines…check out the desktop version! It came out great!
  • And all the wonderful coding that makes the site shine are thanks to the Toocheke system, developed by Leetoo. He has been an absolute pleasure to work with on the new DRIVE and SHELDON sites, and I can’t thank him enough for all the work he put into it!

SALE ON ORIGINAL ART!
To help kick the tires of the new site, I’ve put all original art up for sale. From now until Saturday, original art is just $99! (That’s $71-off!) Just navigate to your favorite comic, and click “Buy Today’s Original Art” underneath it. BAM: Instant savings! 🙂

NEW FEATURES!
Webcomics like mine used to run on advertising. But that business model has completely fallen apart. So! To keep the lights on, the new Sheldon site will run on a much healthier system of fan support: Patreon.com/sheldoncomics. When you join us, check out all the stuff you’ll get:

  • Weekly original art giveaways via Patreon!
  • New “themed” collections, where you can read just by your interest in pugs, coffee, pop culture, literature, *my* favorites, and more! 
  • All 5,000 comics in the Sheldon archives!
  • Behind-the-scenes and sneak peeks!
  • And you’ll get pal-time forums!
  • Join us, pals! It’s super worth it!

Note the new RSS feed: Coming soon!

Friends! In the near future, an ENTIRELY NEW Sheldon site is coming — and it’ll have a new RSS feed. If you use RSS, please note the new feed:

https://www.sheldoncomics.com/feed

It’s not active yet, but! I mention it only so that this note gets archived in the OLD feed, so you know where to go! 🙂

Ripley LaCross (he/they) is a Pacific Northwest-based artist and illustrator frequently found galivanting in the Cascade Mountains. When they’re not picking leaves out of their hair, Ripley enjoys playing fantasy tabletop roleplaying games and illustrating the shenanigans that unfold.
Ripley has a SUPER DANG DELIGHTFUL art style that you should go check out right because it is, as promised, SUPER DANG DELIGHTFUL —> https://ripleylacross.carrd.co/

Meet Cat Farris!

Friends!

My wonderful colorist and studio assistant, Beth Reidmiller will be out for a 6-month maternity leave until October. And as much as I’ll miss her in the day-to-day of the studio, oh my gosh I’m so excited for her!

And while she’s out, we’ll have four all-star artists stepping in to color Sheldon. First up, my pal Cat Farris!

Many of you will already know Cat from her delightful TALES OF THE DRIVE short story on Drive. But she’s also the artist of MY BOYFRIEND IS A BEAR (which is adorable) and THE GHOUL NEXT DOOR (which is also adorable).

You can follow Cat on Twitter, and tell her how awesome she is, after you check out her amazing work on Cattifer.com!
