Today's Ask Axe Cop episode comes courtesy of one very dedicated Axe Cop fan named Adam who took the Golden Mustache option on the AxeCopWedding.com registry so that he could become a character in the Axe Cop universe. I am offering only two good guys and two bad guys, and one good guy has been taken. There are other options to be in the background at the wedding and in the comic. Check out the options in the registry to pick something that suits your budget and your desires. It's a cool gift to give a fan of the comic and it is a gift to me because it helps me pay for my wedding next month. HUGE thanks to Adam for purchasing the Golden Mustache, and for showing us how Malachai thinks Google works. Basically, Adam sent me some details about himself: he works at Google, he got a PHD at Harvard, etc. Malachai grabbed onto the details he could comprehend and made this character and story up based on that info.
We have two awesome videos to share today! First, RugBurn is back with another epsiode of the Moon Warriors!
I finally designed the Axe Cop Wedding Invite! Here it is. I called Malachai and we discussed what he would want the invite to say and this is what we came up with. Having gone through a lot of RSVP hassle lately, the head chopping option sounds great. If you are one of the people who orders Axe Cop some "Weaponized Poison Flowers" or higher from his Registry, you will be getting this invitation in the mail, signed and sketched on if you opted for that. This offer will continue through May, and then these won't be avialable any longer. All proceeds go to pay for my wedding on May 12th, which I still really need to raise some more money for.
And in case you didn't see it yet... the first Axe Cop Animated series trailer is here!
Read the previous blog for more info on this clip and some tidbits about what you are seeing and hearing. Pretty exciting!

Last night at Wonder Con I was on a panel with other ADHD folk and we premiered a trailer for an episode of Axe Cop titled Zombie Island. Shortly after it was posted on YouTube, and here it is:
Any kid who attends First Baptist Church is a little diappointed when they find out it is not actually the first one. Malachai attend such a church, so it made sense to him that his character would start a first Laptist church, because it really would be the first.
I will be at Wonder Con on Saturday at the ADHD panel. I wish I could afford to exhibit but I have neither the time nor money right now. The panel is about ADHD, Fox's new block of late night animation with Axe Cop as it's flagship show. I don't know what they plan to show or talk about, but I will be there. Here is the info:
Hope to see you there!

You know Malachai is getting older when he unintentionally works a love triangle into his story. I actually moved all my stuff, my entire office, between last episode and this one. I am amazed that I am keeping up, though I know my colorists on both of my web comics know I am getting close running out of pages on both (this and Bearmageddon). I have done a little more plugging away at the Axe Cop print as well. If you want to order this print just go to the wedding site and order anything from the registry that includes the exclusive screen print.
That's all for now. Would you like to do an Axe COp guest episode? Let me know. I could use some content during this hectic period of my life and it will help to promote your work to this audience.
