It’s May, and artists all over the world have been celebrating by drawing mermaids! Lots and lots of mermaids! So I decided to join the festivities and draw some mermaids of my own. I mean, Annie essentially has Ariel’s color scheme, so it wasn’t much of a stretch to add a tail.

There’s nothing like a good circumcision to make a man feel truly special.

It’s not easy drawing realistic musculature, so I want you all to know that the muscles in today’s strip are modeled after my own.

Looks like Winslow hasn’t finished writing stories in his acclaimed Bahls Mythos. I for one applaud his commitment. He’s got a way with titles, that’s for sure!

Well, well, well, what have we here? Has another issue of beloved humor magazine Defenestration crawled ashore to lay its eggs? I think it has!

I think Eileen would agree with me that editing this magazine has, on the whole, been an immensely positive experience. We get to read a lot of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry–most of it never before published, and some never before seen by another magazine or editor. That’s a cool experience. A humbling one, certainly. And it’s one of the things I love about editing Defenestration.

But the world can’t be sausages and rainbows all the time.
