I wanted to relearn some Illustrator nonsense and I ended up making a weird Bauhaus Whomp! poster.

I guess the O might read a little bit like a Q. If you're a crazy. There's no Q in Whomp. C'mon, now. Oh god my graphic design skills are the rustiest/barely existent.

Whomp! is a hilarious webcomic. Go check it out.

    I'm fond of Ronnie's use of background colours to help set the tone, like the flamey effect in the second panel.

    How could you post that without the alt-text
    Another simple life hack for getting warm quickly is to run your car with the heater on full blast! Most scientists agree that cars only use up gasoline when moving. Park it in the garage and open the car doors wide. Use a box fan to circulate the life-giving warmth into your home. Also helps you sleep!

    ronnie, you are a blessing.

    Eh? I used the acronym thingy where you can hover over the image to see it. You don't see it?

    Whomp is one of three webcomics I check on their relative days for updates. They always cheer me up.

    Ronnie, obviously you are the pinnacle of the art form. Could you describe to us, in your own words, your creative process?

    A thread for every webcomic, and a webcomic for every thread.

    A noble dream.

    I think a thread specifically for Whomp/Ronnie isn't a bad idea, because we often had good last minute suggestions/proof-readings for him before he put them on the site proper.

    That is, if he still thinks we're worthy.

    I normally used to just lurk in the webcomics thread but probably the comic I most looked forward to seeing was Whomp. Its beautifully drawn and has never failed to make me laugh. Never.

    So I guess I just want to say thank you Ronnie for creating it. Thank you very much.

    I was going to ask this in a webcomics thread, but since it's gone, this is the perfect place to ask, which is weird

    oh man this whole thing is weird (but it makes me happy, so it's okay)

    okay, could someone go to my website on their phone and see if the 'click here for the secret words' button works, either on iOS or Android or Windows 8 or all of them?
