Happy New Year

In Honor of the Big Blizzard

WOW... There was a blizzard in Mythfits land. All the little mushrooms are freezing. Poo has become a white-frosted pile of caca... and suddenly innocent marshmallows everywhere are screaming into the night as they're toasted over campfires. On a happier note, Unicorn and Robot got out of their cozy little trailerhome, went out into the snow, and sculpted a family of snowmen anxiously awaiting the new year. I hope you're enjoying Winter!

The Eyes Deceive

Oh my. This little nut is in no state to make critical decisions, if you remember his past predicament here.

Santa needs to bring some Mythfits...

...to all the good boys and girls out there. Santa is ashamed of me for not posting a strip in so long. Rest assured, one is coming this week. 3 months of strenuous freelance work has been completed since my last strip was posted and I'm ready to start fresh at the new year with more adventures. It takes money (and time) to make Mythfits, so I had to make sure my bills were paid and my Christmas presents for others were bought. I hope you don't think I'm a big stinky asshole.

I truly wish you all an awesome holiday season. Here's some Mythfits themed cards I made:

Below is a painting I did that was commissioned for Kokoro Studio in San Francisco for their Christmas YULE exhibit. I left out Unicorn, but it's still heavily Mythfits inspired.

Thank You...

...for sticking with MYTHFITS during this pause in programming.

hi

Sorry there wasn't a strip this week. I got a BIG freelance job that's due VERY soon, but I promise to keep rolling out the strips as soon as it's completed. Until then, I want to show some fun pics of the Robot and Unicorn figurines that Tara Martin of Loffie's Randoms made for me. I'm in love with them. I like to play with them. I'm a big dork. Last week, I sent pictures of them to Kidrobot. Hopefully, I can convince someone to make them into vinyl toys. If you know of anyone with vinyl connections, please let me know [ ^_^ ]

Here's the results from last week's poll:

The lost little nut should never have...

eaten a bad mushroom (39%)
run towards a tower (39%)
fallen off Robot (21%)
bolted from bolts (17%)

Ouch...

This little nut last appeared here, here, and here. Now his story continues...

Readers of MYTHFITS sure know how to handle a poll. Thanks to those of you who voted while Unicorn was recuperating. Here's the results:


You thought Robot was going to...

administer a shot (51%)
probe Unicorn (42%)
squirt robo-pee (10%)
caulk the waindows (8%)

MWAH!

A little something from the sketchbook... that's Poo in the lower corner, playing in his own filth.

Feel Better with Mythfits

Thanks for all the well-wishing while I was sick. I hope you like the new strip. Take a moment to vote in the new poll and if anyone else wants a Poo doll, I have three left! ( ^_^ )

Results from the last poll are tallied:

Mythfits readers are...

unicorn voyeurs (50%)

poo freaks (40%)

controlling gods (32%)

robot interlopers (22%)

MYTHFITS become reality

I want to apologize for not posting a new comic and poll this week. The weekend brought with it a nasty Summer flu. I was hacking up stuff that looked like Poo, except it was green (TMI?) and I even had a fever. I'm finally feeling 100% better and back to my usual, blogging self.

And boy, do I have a special surprise to show you! Tara Martin, of Loffie's Randoms, has created AMAZING three dimensional models of Unicorn & Robot from Mythfits! Check them out! I'm blown away by her talent and craftsmanship in sculpting these two guys. Check out all the angles of Robot here, all the angles of Unicorn here, and her process here.

I am honored by this, Tara, and I really hope we can get vinyl toys made from your designs. I'd love to see the Mythfits characters as a series of collectible figures!

I'd love to know what you think of these... [ ^_^ ]

Those Hateful Nuts

Looks like some of those nuts got what they deserved. Are you happy? Beezlebub's going to have himself a delicious acorn protein shake.

Based on the last poll, let's see what you think Poo deserves in his situation:

rescuing (41%)

a break (35%)

to be zapped (22%)

torture (21%)

Wow, I can't believe a minority of you actually want Poo TORTURED. Mythfits sure has some sick readers... hee hee.

BTW, Poo dolls are still up for grabs! $10 (plus $5 for shipping and handling) gets a fresh pile of smiling poo shipped to your doorstep. Pay with PayPal through the "donate" button (on the right) and make sure you include your mailing address. ( '_' )

To all my favorite followers...

Hello Mythfits readers. I want to extend a special thanks to those of you who have reached out across the magical internets and embraced Mythfits, fallen in love with Unicorn or Robot, or metaphorically squeezed Poo with your blog loving embrace. You've collectively put a big smile on my face, and I want to tell you that I appreciate it.

For instance, the MAGICAL cake above was created for Andrea Alex Kutová, a Mythfits reader living in Prague, Czech Republic. She must be a real unicorn queen, indeed. I'm blown away by the perfect likeness to Mythfit's cute little Unicorn.

The ZUPER-talented Dessy Tab, of ZUPERDZIGH, created six beautiful, handcrafted, crocheted Poo dolls for me to sell or give away here on Mythfits-comic.blogspot.com. I'm keeping one for MYSELF, but the other five are up for grabs. Any takers?

Check out all five of these beauties below in my studio...

The awesomely cool Cain family has also been a Mythfits supporter for quite a while now. Robin Cain, webcomic creater extraordinaire, even went as far as to add Poo to one of her comics (see below)! Check out more of her fun comic work at Mindzai Comics.

In fact, it seems the entire Cain clan has embraced Mythfit's stinky little Poo. Here's Robin and her family members posing with him:

This one's my personal favorite ( ^_^ )

Thanks for the smiles, and hey, take a look below. I think I spotted Poo's swirl cone sister here on the streets of NYC. Maybe they'll meet one day...

...Uh Oh

What does the wizard want from Poo?

According to the last poll, here's what you thought:

an ingredient (50%)

his pretty smell (40%)

a friendship (19%)

a hostage (13%)

Only future strips will reveal the true fate of Poo! Stay tuned,

and in the meantime, knock yourself out with the new poll.

Thanks for visiting!  ( '_' )

Mythfits featured in the San Diego Gay & Lesbian Times...

...just in time for Comic Con! If any of you followers are going to be there, I wish you the best weekend. I wish I could go. To read the article online, click here.

The Poo Returns

This week, that creepy wizard from way back here shows up.

As for the last poll's stats, when asked "Who's going to Hell?" you responded:

the Religious Nuts (55%)

probably me (40%)

Miss Sunshine (20%)

Poo (19%)

the Mushrooms (10%)

Maggie (6%)

Leslie (5%)

Robot (5%)

Unicorn (4%)

Plus, a couple of you left sweet messages declaring that NOBODY is going to Hell. What an open-minded and forgiving readership you are. However, a lot of you have it in for undeserving little Poo. Poor, poor, misunderstood Poo.

Keep voting and be our friend ( ^_^ )

Watercolor Wednesday

It's been a while since I've posted a Watercolor Wednesday, so I thought I'd show this drawing I was commissioned to create for a Mythfits fan. Apparently, there are people out there that identify with Robot OR Unicorn :)

I really enjoy the gender differences between these two. Somehow, they balance each other out. Which one do you identify with? Or which supporting character? Robot will be analyzing the results.

What's That Noise?

Last week's poll was interesting! According to the people, that little religious nut...

is brainwashed (57%)

has some nerve! (34%)

is like my family (24%)

is right! (7%)

Your opinions on the nut are fascinating. I'm glad most of you voted the nut was brainwashed... but I was surprised 7% of you thought he was right. Somewhat diverse readership here at MYTHFITS. Excellent. Don't forget to vote again...

Poo's Activity Page

Hai! It's mid-week, so take a break, set your work aside, and follow Poo through this happy little maze. Who knew digestion could be such fun, right?

Oh, and if I ever get the TIME and MONEY to do a Mythfits music video, I'd love for it to look like this. Any collaborators out there?

( ' _ ' )

Happy 4th of July!

Okay people, according to the last poll, you felt sorry for...

that little cloud (74%)
Poo (25%)
...and tied for 3rd place...
Miss Sunshine (6%)
the mushrooms (6%)

Good response, that little cloud had it rough!

Poo for YOU

I have a special treat for you. Look at these little Poos, courtesy of Dessy Tab of zpiderdzigh. I think they're pretty hilarious. Dessy is an extremely talented creator of amigurumi (crochetted toys) and an animator. She's a loyal MYTHFITS reader and a fellow lover of anthropomorphized poo. After she created this based on my Poo character, I commissioned her to make more for me to sell, and they're currently on their way to America! Dessy lives in Bandung, Indonesia, so the little Poos are stuffed in a box traveling to Brooklyn, New York as I write this. I can't wait to open the package and see their six smiling faces looking up at me. ( '_' )

Until they arrive, I wanted to share these great photos she sent me. I love how she posed them and styled them to appear as if they're on a picnic (below). If you'd like to obtain your OWN lovable and squeezable amigurumi Poo, let me know in a comment, and we'll make a little deal.

I Think I'm Going to be Sick...

Yep, Leslie and Maggie are here to stay. According to the last poll, you readers found Poo's parasites to be:

our new friends (41%)

Leslie & Maggie (37%)

disgusting (31%)

cute! (11%)

Thanks for voting and while you're here check out the new poll.

Oh, and if you're having trouble deciphering the itty-bitty, high-pitched word balloons of Leslie and Maggie, be sure to click on the comic to enlarge it for easier reading.

It's Summertime!

Robot can't wait to show off his chest hair but Unicorn's feeling a little apprehensive. Are YOU body conscious like Unicorn? Well, get a MYTHFITS tee to wear to the beach. Hide that webcomic reading body under distractingly charming fabric! A couple more designs have been added to the t-shirt shop. Nothing says Summer more than fun new T-shirts! Click on the tee icons below...

Rise and Shine!

These polls just kill me. I love you guys. Thanks to your votes, we now know that Miss Sunshine (featured in the previous comic) is:

a bitch (61%)
she's tied as a gossip (29%) and a fake friend (29%)

and lastly, a few of you consider her an airhead (8%)

Stay tuned for more MYTHFITS madness to come. Maybe you'll even affect the outcome of Poo's parasites...

Wearable MYTHFITS

I'm not going to write a bunch of dazzling words to sell shirts, but if you'd like to see the designs for MYTHFITS, Check them out here. More shirt designs will be hatched soon, and if there are requests, just call Miss sunshine on her cell. She may or may not pick up, depending on the gossip of the day. Thanks for stopping by. [ ^_^ ]

Ugly Piece of Crap

You get what you ask for. According to my last poll, you thought Poo should come back as:

poo (37%)

a sorcerer (32%)

Jeebus (30%)

an acorn (16%)

Having Poo come back as a sorcerer would have been fun, huh? Ohh well, look for the new poll and keep the votes coming. It's always stimulating gathering research on the magical world of MYTHFITS.

MYTHFITS Tees

Thanks to everyone who requested MYTHFITS T-shirts. I'm taking the plunge, as you can see by clicking on the tee images below. These are initial designs, but I'm curious to hear what YOU would like on a tee. Are there any favorite characters or scenarios you'd be more inclined to purchase on a tee? Unicorn? Robot? Poo? The acorns? Let me know in a comment because I'm open to suggestions! Oh... and buy one, pretty pleeeease. They come in more colors than shown below and you can choose American Apparel brand to make sure it's SOFT and COMFORTABLE. [ ' _ ' ]
