Lydia goes further down the corporate rabbit-hole.

Lydia finds out that when you open your big fat mouth at a company meeting, there are surprising consequences.

Yeah, we’re making Shakespeare references now, being all
high-falutin’ and junk.

A nice pull quote and a fantastic last panel from Riffner make this
my favorite strip so far.

One of the things in the little bible I made for Max before we started doing the strip was that Lydia was going to
wear big girl clothes on occasion.

So, we listened to you guys and the strip is now 25% larger! OK, more like 23.5% but let’s not let hard numbers and facts get in the way
of your enjoyment.

Man, five strips in and we’re
still on her first day! Someone needs to teach me to stop decompressing.

Johanna Draper Carlson over at Comics Worth Reading interviewed Max Riffner and myself about Lydia and she let me babble on a bit about The Rack collection and some other things. What a nice host!
You have a Cover Girl collection out from Boom! Do you have plans to do more print comics?
Honestly, I’ve not pitched anything to anyone in about a year, mostly because I’d want to own whatever I do. Don’t get me wrong — I think it’d be great fun to write a J. Jonah Jameson miniseries or the like, but I’m at the point where I get the most joy from creating my own characters and worlds.
With Diamond having made some decisions that aren’t friendly to the small press, I’m of the mind that the web’s definitely the way for anyone to start doing comics. Outside of time, your production costs are minimal, and you can build up your audience slowly without having publication pressures on your back.

This is also based on something I did at an actual job except
Lydia is more polite.

Really, the title on this strip is just for Chris Sims, and if
anyone else gets it, that’s fine.

Honest and for true,
this one happened to me about five years ago. Except I think they were joking. Maybe. Oh well, fuck ‘em, they’re out of business.

The Rack is being pushed back for a day while Birdie works to finish up yet another super-secret project (that is actually totally rad)
but you can go read the first Lydia strip instead..

I’ve hinted at it and stuff on Twitter, but there’s like an official first post that kicks off everything up at
LydiaComic.com.
