NEW ANNOUNCEMENT
Hey everyone! Welcome to the relaunch of Goobs! Since Smith decided to bail on me,
I've decided to restart the comic I worked on before Slackerz. Most of you probably haven't seen it (I had a very small audience
before...a fraction the size of Slackerz' audience).
Who knows, you may even see some of the old Slackerz characters turn up. We're still arguing
over who gets custody of the children, but with any luck, ol' Matt or Johnny Turbo will show up from time to time.

April Fools, guys - Slackerz isn't going anywhere.
Monday, December 4, 2006
Damn it all....
So on Sunday morning, I got up early. Ungodly early. Still dark out early. Why, you
ask? Well, because I hate myself, apparently. Also, Target was getting in a bunch of Wiis. So I get up about 6:30, and drive to
Target (literally a three minute drive), and there's a line. 28 people, so I'm 29. After I'm there about a half hour, someone
comes out and tells us that there are only 27 Wiis in stock.
I want one enough to get there an hour or so early, but not badly enough to
freaking camp out the night before. That's what some of these people did. That's something that CARTOON Scott might do, but
not REAL-LIFE Scott. Real-Life Scott was busy being constructive, working on his comic.
Monday, November 20, 2006
Because I love all you guys, I went ahead and updated the comic for you.
Also, I'm starting to think about purchasing a Wii. I haven't been that excited about
video games for a long time (excluding World of Warcraft), but Zelda: Twilight Princess is starting to reawaken the video game geek
in me. Yeah yeah, I could just get it for Gamecube, but.... dammit, I want a Wii!
Monday, November 13, 2006
Okay... the character is based on me, but it's not me. So he's got a different last
name. Yet, he's still me when I make Sketchbattle comics and whatnot. I don't know. It's like how Joel Hodgson played Joel
Robinson on Mystery Science Theater. Bottom line, I just REALLY wanted to do the "McScotterton" gag.
Friday, September 29, 2006
SKETCHBATTLE IS ON.
Monday, September 11, 2006
Hey guys... the Slackerz site was down for awhile, but it's back up now, and
everything's cool. Click on the above banner to check it out.
And if there are any Stargate fans reading, or fans of text-based
RPGs in general, check out the banner off to the right.
Saturday, August 19, 2006
Hey, got a few points of interest. First, the big news that I'd
been hiding: On August 28, the old webcomic Slackerz
makes its return, with all new strips. And the new artist for Slackerz is yours truly. We're both very excited
about it, and we've got several comics done already. So go to
www.theslackerz.com to see the site.
Secondly... this was just awesome... I won the Sci-Fi Prize Pak giveaway
at ScifiHeaven.net. I won Battlestar Galactica 2.0 on DVD,
along with The Triangle, and the first season of Ghost Hunters. Works well for me, as I hadn't bought the Galactica
set yet (since I was waiting for both 2.0 and 2.5 to be released in some kinda shrink-wrapped deal). Thanks guys!
Third... well, this isn't really about me at all, but any fans of
Mystery Science Theater 3000 should go to the Rifftrax website,
where Mike Nelson is doing MST3K-style commentaries of various movies. My friend and I listened to the Fifth Element track,
and it was so awesome. But the best part is, the new one is Star Trek 5. Haven't bought it yet, but I'm looking forward
to it.
Fourth, I've learned how to transend my physical body and exist as energy.
Monday, July 31, 2006
I love Zug. I got nuthin else to say besides that. I'm off to get me some food now.
Tuesday, July 25, 2006
COMIC UPDATE!!!!1111ONE111
It occurred to me a while ago that I haven't actually used
Zug in a very very long time. I'll be using him more often.
Oh, and the new project that I'm working on is moving along
at a decent pace. It will debut in August (most likely toward the end of August). It's not an uber-secret
or anything (in fact, I'm sure if you search the web long enough, you may find something), but I'd
rather wait until we have a running website before I put up a link.
Just remember, I'm not writing it, I'm just drawing it.
But I love the writer's style of humor, so we should be good.
Thursday, July 13, 2006
Hey everyone. I know it's been awhile since I've produced a new comic. That's what I'm
doing now. But I thought you'd like to see a larger version of some of the comic art. This will be a panel in an upcoming
strip, but I liked how it turned out so much, I just wanted to share.
Tuesday, June 6, 2006
Nothing new to report. Drawing, etc. I'm so boring. Sigh.
Wednesday, May 31, 2006
Got the new comic up. I would have had it done sooner, but you know... Memorial Day weekend
and all.
Monday, May 22, 2006
Hey guys. I would have had this comic up sooner, but my head was about to hit the keyboard
last night. So here it is. W00t. Also, I'm working on other projects. I'm not at liberty to discuss them... well, actually I am, I've
just always wanted to say that. For now though, I'm just gonna tease you a bit. But I'll tell you one thing... you'll be seeing it around
August.
Monday, May 15, 2006
Hey, I'm updating! I'm doing it, see! LOOKIT ME GO!!! wOOOOO!
On another note, I'm sad now, cause apparently Invasion has been cancelled. As has Surface.
And of course, anyone who knows me, or knows OF me, or who has ever been in the same room as me knows that I'm a huge sci-fi
guy. And I don't take the news of cancellations well.
Oddly enough, I haven't got into Lost. Not because I didn't like it, but because I got into
it way too late, and now I can't watch it till I get caught up. (I've only ever seen the first two discs on the DVD set.)
Well, I'm gonna stop typing now. Peace out, y'all. I believe that's what the kids are saying
these days.
Sunday, May 7, 2006
Sorry, but I'm just sick of the idea of prequels. Ever since George Lucas's prequel
trilogy, everybody thinks this is the next way to go. Call me old fashioned if you like, but I prefer a movie to continue
AFTER events of the previous movie(s). I believe those used to be called "se-quels" at one point.
Admittedly, I was always more of a Next Generation/Deep Space Nine fan (since that's
what I grew up on), but I still have a great appreciation for the old series/movies. So I don't want anyone to think that I'm
a Kirk-hater. ;) That being said (and I'm surprised that I seem to be in the minority on this one), I have no interest in
seeing Kirk and Spock portrayed by younger actors.
Also, if Ron Moore decides to go this prequel route with Caprica, won't they have to
break out the cheesy-looking Cylon costumes from the original Galactica? ;)
Sunday, April 30, 2006
Hey, not only do I have a new comic up, but on the Other Stuff
page, I've got a new piece of fan art, brought to me by Brittany.
(In response to this filler strip.) Check it out here. Thanks, Brittany!
And not that I'm begging for handouts or anything, but if anyone else wishes to torture
themselves a little bit by drawing any Goobs fan art/strips, I'll add it to the Other Stuff page. And I'll link you. Unless you've got a pro-Nazi
site, or a site that supports sex with giraffes or something.
Saturday, April 22, 2006
I was going to wait until Monday to post the new comic, but I just couldn't wait. There
will also be a part 5, which will be up soon. And I have a few more ideas banging around the old noggin. Twisted ideas that will
drive you all to a form of madness once read.
Saturday, April 15, 2006
Hey, happy tax day everyone. I've returned, but not in any capacity which would result
in me making new comics. (Don't worry... those are coming.... I SWEAR.) But I wanted to share this fan art made by Emily (you
can view her stuff at deviantArt here). See, this is what happens when I don't update.... I get chained up by a whip wielding
dominatrix-type.... mmmm....
I may just have to postpone the updates a bit longer. ;)
Monday, February 27, 2006
Yep, now that's what I'm talkin' about.
Monday, January 16, 2006
Check THAT out... new comic is up.
Not much else going on.... joined a new World of Warcraft guild... trying to write some
more parts to this comic series... having weekly Stargate/Galactica nights with my friends. And I've got to go to sleep soon
as I type this, so I must stop typing now.
Monday, January 9, 2006
Hello everyone who's still around after my absense. I know I dropped off the face of the
earth for awhile. I could go into all the reasons why, but you'd cry yourself to sleep if I ever told you. Anyway, I'm back in the
saddle again, and we'll see how long I can stay here. ;)
I'm also attempting a site re-design. It will be similar to this design, with subtle
differences. Differences SO subtle, you'll be asking yourself, "Is this the old or the new website?" To which I'll reply, "Shut
your word-hole".
Tuesday, September 6, 2005
Hey, I'm back! With a comic.
Oh... I'm sorry to anyone who happened to e-mail me, to whom I never responded. It had been a while
since I had checked my e-mail, and then I lost track of who I had responded to, and who I hadn't. But rest assured, if you e-mailed
me, I DID read it, and I DID appreciate you taking the time. Especially to those who wrote me about Firefly/Serenity.
And speaking of which.... only 24 days until Serenity
comes out in theaters. If you're into sci-fi movies even the slightest bit (and if you read this comic, you probably are), then
you should check it out.
EDIT: Also, a while back, I got a fan-made Goobs background, that I never posted. It's in the
Other Stuff section, made by "The Almighty Tim". Thanks Tim!
Sunday, July 24, 2005
Hey Goobs...ites. Goobians. Goob-ticians. Think I'm going to stick to the larger
page format for awhile. Gosh, I wish I had some other news to report. Other people who have webcomics are always so interesting,
and they can come up with something to say at the drop of a hat.
Sunday, July 17, 2005
Thought I'd try the larger page format again (last seen in comic
200). No particular reason. Oh, and we were seriously considering putting a dish up on a tripod in the living room,
except our place isn't quite facing the right direction. And... Brad didn't want to have to wear clothes every time he walked
into the living room.
Wednesday, July 6, 2005
Well, managed to squeeze out another update. Woo.
I know it's a bit late to be doing a comic about the Serenity screening, cause it was quite a while
ago. The comic pretty much says it all. It was awesome. Freaking awesome. You'll laugh, you'll cry. Go see this movie when it comes out.
Even if you're not a Firefly fan, Serenity is still completely accessible to newcomers.
Oh, just for fun... With all this talk about Serenity and Firefly, if I've managed to
actually turn someone on to the show, drop me a line and let me know. I'd love to know if I actually had any influence on anybody...
if I've actually managed to turn anyone into a Browncoat. Did I? Eh, probably not.
In any case, check out Firefly. Especially when it starts airing on the Sci-fi
Channel on July 22 (if you don't wanna shell out the cash for the DVDs). And no, no one paid me to endorse it. :)
Thursday, June 16, 2005
Hey guys, I'm back... but strangely enough, Goobs is not. Yeah, I've been kicking around
this comic idea for some time, and decided to go ahead with it. It's based off of the whole "Sci-fi moments you never see" series
I did (a series of two comics). I guess we'll see how this plays out.
On another note... I mananged to get a ticket to one of the advanced screenings for
Serenity. The screening is on June 23, next week.
And I gotta tell you... I'm excited. I haven't looked forward to a movie this much since Star Trek: Generations (which was incidently another instance of a
TV show I LOVED being made into a movie), and that was over ten years ago. I'll be sure to post my opinions of the movie after I've seen
it.... WITHOUT SPOILERS. So don't worry, I won't give nuthin' away.
Thursday, May 12, 2005
Sorry about having no update on Monday. I've been having difficulty logging in to update the
last couple days, since my buddy switched me over to another server or some such. Just didn't want you folks thinkin' I was
getting lazy or anything.
I know the third (or sixth, or whatever) Star Wars movie is on the horizon, but currently
I'm even MORE excited about Serenity. This is
MY Star Wars. For the longest time, the two big movies I was looking forward to were Serenity and Hitchhiker's Guide... and now
the latter has come and gone. And I've got five freaking months to wait 'till the former. Blast!
Thursday, May 5, 2005
Check me out... new comic's up!
Monday, May 2, 2005
Went to see Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on Friday. Now, many die-hard fans of
the series are saying that the movie sucks. Well, let me tell you, I'm a huge fan of the books/radio series/TV series,
and I LOVED it. Yes, there were differences. Yes, some funny jokes/narratives from the book didn't make it into the movie.
But there were still plenty of parts that WERE in the movie, as well as some new parts. And sure, I wept for the loss of
some of my favorite jokes as well. But on the whole, it was cool. Quite cool.
Monday, April 18, 2005
Welcome..... to part 3 of the comic series. There will be a part 4 as well. Yeah, I know that
I said it would only be 3 parts. So I'm a big fat liar.
Monday, April 4, 2005
Finally got a new comic up. Wheeee!
Monday, March 21, 2005
What the... where did this comic come from? I don't remember drawing it. I swear...
I was too busy being a lazy bastard to draw a comic. Don't know where this came from. But if I DID draw it, I'd tell you that
it's part of a multi-part comic story. "Multi" meaning "three", most likely.

Monday, February 28, 2005
Thought I'd show ya a drawing I'd been working on for awhile.
Thursday, February 17, 2005
Those of you that have read some of the early comics may recognize Eileen. Thought I'd
try and bring her back. Maybe I can get a few laughs with a new (old) character. I dunno.
And for anyone interested, the new Hitchhiker's Guide trailer is out. Check it out
here.
Thursday, February 3, 2005
Hey guys... I AM working on the comic, I swear. I've got one planned, but it required a bit of
drawing (it being a comic strip and all). I could have made it a single-panel comic, but I think it will work even better as a 3-panel
strip. In the meantime though, I thought you might like to see some sketches I've been working on, in an attempt to create a robot
character (not for Goobs). Sadly, everything I come up with looks like a cross between R2-D2 and those robots on one wheel from the
original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons (the very first few episodes).
Monday, January 31, 2005
New comic.... and nothing else interesting to talk about. My life is so boring.
I will say though that I particularly enjoyed doing the lighting and shading on this comic.

It's true, my new computer glows, and it's hypnotizing. In fact, that's what I was
doing during my hiatus. Just staring at the blue glow of my computer. For three weeks straight.

Monday, January 24, 2005
Yeah, so what if I've got a Christmas comic at the end of January? :)
Seriously, though, I'm sorry about the lack of comic for such a long time. My heart
just wasn't in it for a while. If I were doing this for a living, I'd have more time to do it, and all would be good. But I'm back,
and I'm gonna try and get myself ahead of schedule.
