Episode 015 Delayed

Hi everyone,

Episode 015 is going to be delayed, probably until next Monday. :( I think you’ll really like this episode, so the delay will be worth it. In the meantime, I’ll try to put something else up for you to look at…

Thanks,

Trevor

Episode 014

Well, it's been two weeks...and it's still Monday...technically. :)

My goal is to get the strip out on Sunday night or Monday morning so it's viewable by more than just night owls during the last few moments of Monday. Thanks, and please, enjoy!

Episode 013

Thanks so much for your patience!

Battling the Corpse Worm

Well, today is two weeks since my last post...and Episode 013 is still not done.

Turns out, I underestimated the amount of work needed to draw, ink, and finalize the new panels. This is mainly because the battle with the corpse worm is requiring very detailed and action heavy panels, more so than in the past. Ugh. Fun, and rewarding, but still ugh. There was a point on Sunday morning where I felt like I was back in college, studying for a final the next day and suddenly realizing I only knew 60% of the material. It's been almost two years since I've been out of college, but boy was that an uncomfortably haunting feeling*.

Rather than rush to get it out and fail, I'm going to take an extra week to make sure the episode is done right. So, in the meantime, I present to you an intimate overview of our special guest: the corpse worm. Below you'll find nine pages of sketches I did of the jerk. Since he's the victor this week, I think it's the least he deserves.

Turns out Gary isn't the only one fighting this thing!

Thanks for your patience!

Knights of Nine to Five is One Year Old!

Quite coincidentally, my posting of episode 12.5 tonight comes exactly one year after I posted the first episode of Knights of Nine to Five! In the year that followed that first post, I went through some trying times, both in my personal life and artistic life, but overall I have undergone tremendous growth in all areas and am a better, happier person because of it!

So...after twelve months I have completed just over twelve strips. One strip a month is not that bad, in my own opinion...save for the fact that poor Gary is little more than halfway through his day! My plan this year is to adapt to a regular schedule that gets a new episode out every two weeks. I think this schedule is definitely doable, and over the past month I have been making some good steps to help me achieve this goal.

All that's left to do at this point is to give my thanks to all of you that have supported this strip (especially through the spotty updates!). Thank you!

I have lots in store for Knights in the coming year, and I hope you choose to stick around and see what happens!

Episode 012.5

Signature Significance

Beginning with episode 11, I've started to sign my strips for a personal reason. The unique signature I'm using comes from my grandfather, who likes to work with wood and create all sorts of things with it. Whenever he finishes a piece, he signs it on the bottom. I've always admired his signature, and have decided to start using it in my work as a way of carrying on the Kellogg creative name.
