○ tick ○
tick is my first comic. it’s a classic tale of boy meets robot-boy told over the course of a year in a vaguely calendarial manner. and as it turns out, calendarial is a real word.
it can be purchased for $6, shipping included, via paypal, or read, albeit lacking some of its calendrical* glory, on this here site (coming soon).
[ *also a real word. ]

○ “rubenstein’s sense of composition is bold and daring, with the calendar format both a problem to solve and the solution to the problem all at once.”
.: rob, high-low :.
