Jetpacks and Time Machines

Jetpacks and Time Machines (JP&TM) is a semi-sci fi comic featuring a partially robotic boy, a boy-genius with a penchant for villainy, a violent monkey, a retired supervillain, a nature hating nature show host, and anything else I can think of. Update Schedule Pending.

Out With A Bang

Out With A Bang

Well,  things are progressing nicely here at JP&TM.  This wraps up the somewhat unofficial zombie comic storyline (more of a continued conversation than a true storyline, I know) but there are more festive Halloween comics coming.  Next week, I’ll be posting the usual two comics on Tuesday and Thursday, and a special Halloween comic on Friday too.

Creation Notes: What we have here is a classic Jetpacks and Time Machines background in this comic.  Maybe a little too much detail on the machinery that Adam is jumping off in the first panel, but this was a fun comic to draw.

Zombie Grudge

A little too gratuitous?

Zombie-Spit

The zombie jokes continue.  In the world of Jetpacks and Time Machines, when I talk about (or when my characters talk about) zombies, they’re the slow-moving, infect you if they bite you type of zombies, not the fast-running super-strong mutant type of zombies.  Nothing against those type of zombies, except that I just don’t think they should really be referred to as ‘zombies’.

Creation Notes: I really enjoyed doing that center panel, but in retrospect, I think I could have made Fred stand out a little more maybe.  Or maybe not, I don’t know.

This is the beginning of Jetpacks and Time Machines 2.o. Technically, the strips begin here: http://jetpacksandtimemachines.com/4/ for anyone interested, but for the re-launch, I’ve been working out some issues with the world of JPTM, so there will be changes to the universe and some of the old strips might not be consistent with the new progression.  (Most of the issues will involve character personalties or designs, but there is one MAJOR change and I don’t know if I’ll have time to change the old strips.)
