The "Handbrain" Game Chief Screen Friday December 4, 2015
One of the things Alan, Sandra, and I discussed building as part of the Planet Mercenary Kickstarter was a Game Chief screen that would take drop-in sheets of paper, and which would be styled to look like a handbrain or display unit from the comic strip. We decided against doing… Read more
The Blógünder is Back Thursday August 10, 2006
Big thanks to Daniel Meyer for his help getting php to work on the home page at schlockmercenary.com. You can again read what I've been writing about. As an added bonus, this is a live-updating script, rather than a polling solution. What does that mean to you? It means that… Read more
Back to the Drawing Board Tuesday April 3, 2012
World Horror was fun, and emceeing the Utah's Biggest Liar contest was a hoot, but it's time to get back to work. Oh, I could relax. The buffer has been topped off, and a book and a board game are off to their respective printers. I could spend the next… Read more
The Martian Wednesday February 12, 2014
I picked up The Martian on the strength of Annalee Newitz's review of it on io9, and realized after reading the excerpt that the author, Andy Weir, was a webcartoonist at one point (Casey & Andy, back to haunt him!), and also happened to be an old friend of Sandra's. Look,… Read more
Minter, Printer, and Nuclear Winter Monday May 13, 2013
Good news, all the way around. I know, I know... "nuclear winter" doesn't sound like good news, but it is. I'll get to that last. Minter: I spoke to our manufacturing rep early last week, and the production of Schlock Mercenary challenge coins is on track. They're being struck in… Read more

Do You Design T-Shirts? Tuesday December 12, 2017
UPDATE: We have the applications we need! Thank you for your interest. Sandra and I are looking to engage the services of a designer for a new round of Schlock Mercenary t-shirts. This will be a work-for-hire project that pays a flat fee for each design, plus a slice of the… Read more
Sick Week Monday February 25, 2008
I fell ill Monday afternoon. It cut my workday short. For the rest of the week I tried to muscle through it, propping myself up with piles of Vitamin C, caffeine, cold medicine, and mid-day sleep. I'm still wiped out. I managed to get a very small amount of work… Read more
Scrapyard Recoloring is Done Wednesday February 4, 2009
Two hundred and thirty-three rows of comics, almost a thousand panels, nigh on twelve hundred different Photoshop layers... and it's finally all done. Lessons learned: 1) These take ten minutes each, but only if I decide I don't really care. 2) I really care. 3) Budgeting forty quick-and-dirty hours for… Read more
Aaaand thank you for your input Thursday April 24, 2008
Seriously, thank you. I've yet to see a thread so enthusiastically responded to here at the blog under Schlock. Granted, most of you missed my point entirely, and shelled the crap out of terrain I won't be attempting to capture or hold until much later in my campaign to take… Read more
Coming to Gen Con Indy Saturday July 30, 2011

Space Marines, Water War, and Uplifted Elephants Sunday February 10, 2013
Last week a story broke in which Games Workshop told Amazon to pull a book by a self-published author because the book violated a Games Workshop trademark. The trademark in question? "Space Marine." Lots of people, myself included, made varying types of social media noise regarding the matter. Amazon has… Read more
HoTay Yologast: I'm coming to North Carolina next week! Sunday January 6, 2013
The very first of my public appearances this year promises to be the most intimate, the least expensive, and the most fun. It's Hotay Yologast in Matthews, NC, on Friday and Saturday, January 18th and 19th. Wondering where the word came from? It's the grab-the-first-syllable version of "Howard Tayler at… Read more
Find Me at Gen Con Indy Thursday August 14, 2014
I will be at GenCon Indy this weekend. I arrive on Tuesday for setup, and won't fly home until Monday the 18th, and yes, this means the convention is eating a week of buffer. Like a voracious monster with 70,000 mouths... Find me in Booth 1437 with Jim Zub and… Read more

The collection features every single strip since the previous Sheldon collection -- "The Good, The Bad & The Pugly" -- and includes extra strips he couldn't fit in the… Read more
I Guest-Blogged at Inkpunks Wednesday March 14, 2012
If you're interested in how I craft some of my story-stuffs, I blogged about sub-plotting over at Inkpunks. As an added bonus, the blog post is full of comics! Also, I'm flying to New York for the weekend. Here's how to find me there! And now, luggage... Read more
Order Now, and See Me at Lock & Load Thursday May 29, 2014
I'll be at the Privateer Press Lock & Load event in a week. If you'll be there too, skip to the last paragraph! While I know there is overlap between Schlock Mercenary readers and Warmachine players, it's not huge, and to further narrow the intersection of sets, there's probably a very… Read more
Full Plate Progress Report Wednesday December 15, 2010
In the last two weeks I've succeeded in doing almost exactly four weeks of work. Which is nice, because I love my job enough that getting to do extra work each week is like getting to have the job for longer. But I haven't seemed to be physically able to… Read more
From the Department of Finally He Gets Around To It Thursday January 7, 2016
Last year I commissioned a bonus story for Force Multiplication. The story was written by Sandra Tayler, and illustrated by Natalie Barahona, and it was supposed to be lettered by me. Well, now it’s finally getting lettered by me. This is a story from Bristlecone’s past. You’re looking at about… Read more
