No need to ask, he's a boom operator

Nov 20, 2024

Panel 1. Jonathan, Dexter, Tippe and Meya are walking down the street towards Gertrude's house. Meya: I'm proud of you mom, for taking the time to apologize. Panel 2. Tippe: Thanks! It's the right thing to do. I jumped to conclusions. It's not like one kid will cause the streets to fill up with- Panel 3. The family stop as they are faced with the nude protest march coming in from the other direction, having just passed Gertrude's house, led by Ernst Stachouwer. Tippe: Gah! Panel 4. Tippe is enraged again. Tippe: What the hell? Your friend said this wasn't a political campaign! Ernst: It is now! To stop your harassment of Councillor Schuymer! Panel 5. Tippe: My harassment? I made ONE complaint! Meya: MOM! Ernst: The number doesn't matter! It's malicious! Sarah: Dad! Panel 6. Just outside Gertrude's back yard, Terry, Jerry and Harry prep themselves for street interviews. Terry puts on HEADPHONES. Terry: Oh boy! Who's boring now, Mr. Editor Guy? Harry, can you put that boom microphone a little closer?

Author comment:

These backgrounds were a lot of fun to draw. Over on my own Substack, I'm rerunning my unfinished story "Feral" with reformatted pages from 2006. Take a look!

Greyfriar’s Isle

By
Reinder Dijkhuis

Greyfriar’s Isle is a comic about an island and the people who live there. A small family runs Marsh Light, a naturist campsite connected to the beach where locals and tourists spend their vacation time. The island is historically friendly to naturism, but not universally so. Also, there are ghosts and strange, eldritch island customs.

Greyfriar's Isle is inspired by the comics I read in my youth, by the real-world island experiences I had in my youth, my ideas about what naturism should be and the stories naturists tell each other about themselves.

New episodes come out on the first and third Wednesday of every month!
