The Right Thing

Kite and Mule-bot are back, continuing their subterranean adventures! I can relate to Mule-bot on this one. There’s so many factors to consider in every choice, how can you know that you’re really making the right decision, and not falling into some grave mistake because you’re missing a key piece of information? That’s where a…

Enjoying Adventure

Well it turns out it was way back in June we updated these twos little story. Perhaps I won’t leave it as long next time to update it. Normally Kristof would do the write up for the Kite and Mule-bot strips but he’s AFK in India or something at the moment. A lot is changing…

Forgotten But Not Gone

I know I geeked out about the new art style in Friday’s comic blurb, but I’m excited again – it’s Kite and Mule-bot’s first colour strip! I’ve been doing some thinking recently about where I want to go with the story for these two adventurers, and got so excited that I wrote two K&M scripts in…

Our Best Available Option

There’s nothing quite like faith to make everything seem like it’s all going to be okay. It’s far from surprising that faith (whether in be in a god or karma or the ability of the human race to conquer its foibles and become something better) is such an integral part of most people’s lives. Comfort,…

The Easy Way Down

Somehow I think Kite isn’t planning on a one way trip. You know, in spite of his seeming skepticism, I think there’s a kernel of adventure hidden somewhere in Mule-bot’s circuits. He’s hung around with Kite for this long (okay, maybe he didn’t have a lot of choice after they crash landed) and appears to have…

Watch Over Me

The wanderers return! I’m always trying to think of strips for these guys. They’d be a rad duo to hang out with I reckon. Although a solid hour of Mule-bot might just have you wishing he would lighten up a touch. ↓ TranscriptKite and Mule-bot have entered a building that may have been a cathedral…

A Fleeting Feeling

It’s been a wee while since we last saw our friends Kite and Mulebot, but they make their return in the usual way. Yesterday we rocked out with our combined cocks out at the Auckland Zinefest at Auckland Art Gallery. Never thought I’d ever have anything in the gallery, but it turns out something called…

Falling Gracefully

Kite was getting a bit neglected over her last few strips I think, mostly due to how much I fell in love with Mulebot, so I wanted to give her a chance here to show that she’s not just a batshit crazy adrenaline fiend. She’s that too, admittedly. And, believe it or not, there’s a…

Burdens

I discovered recently that Mule-bot has a small but highly devoted fanbase. So devoted in fact that one person (who, I’m not gonna lie, made my day) is actually considering cosplaying the blocky bot of burden at the upcoming Auckland Armageddon (New Zealand’s version of Comic-Con). Whether or not that ends up happening is immaterial –…

Something Beautiful

Hey, Kite and Mule-bot made it to that city! Kite strips are a unique challenge for me – they need to stand on their own as self-contained pieces, because that’s the Izak Smells format, but Izak and I are also trying to tell a longer story with Kite. The arrival of Mule-bot has allowed for a…
