Thanks Everyone.
A big thanks to everyone to helped motivate Orange Octopus while it lasted. It’s pretty obvious that the comic’s thread of life has been worn down to nothing, and it’s legacy was nothing but short lived.
I am ashamed to admit that I’m trying the blog thing out.
Animation will always be part of my life.
And as far as comics go, TheoArt and I have plans to do some kind...

Well.
Our scanner over here hasn’t been working and althought I’ve got a sketchbook full of new comics, I won’t be able to submit until I head over to my other house. So, I’ll be taking a few days off. Not too long, I’m loving this project too much. :) Peace.
Guest Comic From Theeeeeo.
Theo wanted to do a guest comic and there was no stopping him. Also don’t have a scanner set up over here. :(
Heart
Cloning Attempt
I have decided to make art out of an old gameboy I found after the move. Right now it’s covered in sharpie doodles and spiffy white out splatters, and I’ll try painting it later. For those of you who haven’t, go pick up/listen to Vampire Weekend’s album. I already know that it’ll be one of my favorites of this year. Colorfully amazing.
Fruits
Fruit, yay!
Why
Yeah, sorry guys. Had an extremely busy day on Sunday. I shall promise to make the next year of comics %200 better than before. (Not really though.) Next weekend I’ll be back at a house with flash, so expect more full colors AND another installment of the Adventurers.
Photoshop and Jasc
Heather and I always argue about who has obtained the greater image manipulation software. I, of course, side with the trusty Photoshop for my photoing deeds.
Guest Comic from Laeluu
Laeluu offered to do a guest comic not too long ago, so when I wasn’t feeling up to it she came in and did one. Thanks, I got a good lol from it. And I’m digging the shoes!
Eat Up
:)
Artist Nomad
Ah yes, the Artist Nomad. The greatest of all American heroes.
Belgium
Still working on buying that domain. I really wanted to get orangeoctopus.com, yet it’s taken. A .net doesn’t sound like a good idea, but it might be all I’ll have. An alternative would be octopuscomic.com.
Michelangelo
So I finally got my iPod set back up. It’s a shame to have to go from 4k songs to about 170-something songs. Defiently a lot less convenient.
MS Paint
I lost the comic I was supposed to submit today due to our computer exploding. (Jeeze.) Luckily, my old pal was there for me.
Moth
Moths kind of freak me out. Heather likes to bother me with them. :c
Puzzle
Super thanks to Heather for submitting a filler while I was stuck in a move! The iPod issue striked again- after restoring the iPod back to the factory setting, I’m stuck in this horrible sequence where I try to plug in my iPod, it does some syncing process, then removes the iPod hardware. That’s fine, dandy, and convenient if it wasn’t for the fact that I listen to my iPod...
Austin Plays It Safe
Ho snapes! Austin is being hunted down by some Metal Gear gaurds at the Louvre! Best he be hidin’ under his box! So yeah, Austin is moving today, and his computer is all apart and in snazzy boxes, so he can’t really post today. So, he asked me to do a filler for him. Here ya go. Shablam! - Heather [CrustyJuggler]
Bagels
Left school early with a dire sickness and drew this while eating a dreadful bagel in the kitchen. So this morning my iPod wouldn’t come up with any of the music I had on there. Aparently everything is lost and the only option I have left is to recover it with iTunes. Apples owes me nothing because I used that thing for a good 4 years without any issues whatsoever. I’m...
Yay!

Yet another in class drawing.
KABLOOSH
Sorry for the delay, we’re packing up to move to the new house and my computer is in pieces. :c
Dog
The sad thing about this comic is, I don’t have a dog. :( We used to have two pugs, but one passed and the other was given to my grandma. The joke is something my brother and I came up with a while back, and it’s very true in our case and probably many other’s cases: we hardly ever use the PS3 and the times that we do is for DVDs, and we already have a DVD player anyways. Not...
Spider
I’m really happy on the way this one turned out. Apoligies for the delay, I lost my jump drive the day I went over to my other house so I couldn’t upload it. Luckily, I’m borrowing my dad’s drive that he never uses so I can still make comics on my computer with no internet and bring them to upload on this one. Today has been pretty pathetic. The super bowl commercials...

Adventurers.
Sorry it’s been a while. My computer broke so I couldn’t draw a new comic. I added a little Buzzcomix button in the corner, click it if you find the time. I’ve also been looking into comic genesis to see if that would suit me better than doing this. Don’t think I will, this system here works really well. So last weekend I got to see my friend’s band perform, they...
Producer Vision
Brittany wanted to write a comic idea for me, which lead to this conversation. We’re shipping our 360 back again, but this time they said the repairs should only take 2-3 days. If it breaks again we will get a special “supervisor” to oversee the repairs and call us daily to give constant updates on the process. Hopefully we won’t have to result to that.
Katamari
Cuss words, omg, no way. I thought the coloring on the katamari turned out pretty sweet. I got Beautiful Katmari for Christmas. Only had the chance to play it once since we got our 360 shipped back, but I must say it’s amazing like the original. My brother informed me about an hour ago that our console just got the “red ring death” again, this being our third time. so no...
Great Mountain Todd
This has started become a small inside joke at our school, or it’s at least what my brother calls him everytime he sees him. Todd had to read a book about “Smokey Mountain Men,” that lived one with nature, in study hall (which happens to be the same place I usually draw comics and stuff). At the time it seemed halarious, but now it just seems odd and almost surreal.
Favorite Pencil
One time in Health Heather tried to eat my favorite pencil as I was showing her it. :( She never actually succeeded in eating it, but the mere thought of losing my beloved 5H is enough to bring tears to my eyes.
Assasination
Hoorah, first comic. I’m having to post this on my brother’s computer because mine mysteriously just stopped working. Todd and I whipped this comic up on New Years Eve after talking about how anyone could just cough up 10 dollars to order this knife, that looks like it came straight out of Assasin’s Creed, from a magazine. He ordered this medieval looking helmet for like 20...
