Hope everyone is having a good holiday!
As usual, with the vacation in full swing, I haven’t managed to get as much accomplished as I’d like here at Tabloia, HOWEVER…

All YOU kind $1/month Patrons at my Patreon.com/ChrisWisniaArts can now enjoy THE LUMP here at the website, beginning HERE. The entire story except the last half of the last chapter is posted, and I hope to get those last few pages posted shortly. If you’re NOT a $1/month Patron, there’s an 8-page sample of the covers and inside covers AND the first six pages of actual comics story, FREE TO ALL!
The Lump was my first published comics effort (originally published in serial form in my tabloid pseudo-anthology, Tabloia Weekly Magazine. It’s a film noir/mad scientist/ tabloid horror mystery of a body found in pieces on the freeway, and the cops, coroner, private detective, tattoo artist, and drug dealer who got involved!

In addition, I’ve begun incorporating the BRAND-NEW, FULL-COLOR, not-yet-published pages of “Doris Danger volume 3: More Doris Danger Adventures” into the Doris Danger web comic. Volume Three starts with four pages of intro HERE, and then the first seven-page story is HERE ! There are also a couple more new splash pages thrown in there as well, and if you click the “FIRST” Monster Liberation Army tab, you’ll “flash back” to a flashback of their leader’s earliest remembrance of forming the M.L.A.*!
(*M.L.A. is an a “acronym” **, fans! – Rob Oder, Editor!)
(** An “acronym” is commonly mistaken for genital warts, or scabies – according to my Google search, fans! I don’t even know what that means, but clearly people are typing it in to search for that! “An acronym is commonly mistaken for genital warts!” “An acronym is commonly mistaken for scabies!” THESE are the searches my Google is trying to finish my sentences as! – Rob Oder, Editor!)
Enjoy the New Year, and I look foward to checking in with everyone in 2019! Egads! – Chris
