Emma and I are leaving Victoria. We moved to the island in the summer of 2016 so I could focus on comics and Emma could attend art school. The time has flown by!

I won't reveal where we are moving to yet, but I CAN tell you where to find us this weekend!

Emma will be joining me for two comic cons this week: On Saturday May 6th (Free Comic Book Day!) you can find us at the Curious Comicon in Nanaimo, BC. Sunday, May 7th, we will be back in Victoria at Cherry Bomb Toys' Ultimate Hobby & Toy Fair. Come by and say hi, and get some comics!

In the summer of 2016, Emma and I moved to Victoria, BC so I could focus on comics and she could attend art school. It's mind-blowing to think that our time in Victoria is coming to a close. This weekend we will be moving up Vancouver Island to Courtenay, to spend the summer with my parents. And as for next school year? Stay tuned... 

Sick Day

This comic originally appeared in UVic's Martlet. If you're in Victoria over the summer, keep an eye out for more Smith vs Smith comics every month in the Martlet! 

Over the past two weekends I attended two comic conventions, the Camosun Comics Art Festival and the Courtenay In-CON Family Gaming Convention. I had a great time at both, selling my comics and picking up books from some amazing Canadian creators. Check out my haul:

You can see me next at the Curious ComicCon in Nanaimo on May 6th and then the Ultimate Hobby & Toy Fair in Victoria on May 7th. Come by and say hi!

Matt's Birthday 3

/

This is the 101st comic I've published on SmithVsSmith.com! I've been slowly updating my website so if you haven't read all 101, check out my newly redesigned archive page or start at the beginning and tell me how crappy my art used to be!

This comic is the third in the "Matt's Birthday" saga. Go back to the beginning and read them all! I had an amazing birthday (they've all been amazing since I've been with Emma, honestly). Emma spoiled me (she got me the Lego Millennium Falcon)! 

Dance Shoes

Emma makes her Canadian stage debut April 20th with Reefer Madness. Get your tickets now! Emma and I actually met through community theatre (she was the choreographer and I played "Sonny" in Grease in Kuwait). I'm very excited to see her perform for the first time over a year! 

This comic originally appeared in the University of Victoria's Martlet. 

Emma's Birthday 5

Emma and I had an amazing few days at Villa Eyrie just outside of Victoria. Today's comic concludes a multi-part epic that started with Emma's Birthday 1. Go back and experience the entire saga now! I had to wrap this up because it's almost my birthday! If you know someone with an upcoming birthday, why not get them something from my online store? 

Victoria Comic Book Expo 2

More exploits from my first comic convention, the Victoria Comic Book Expo. I've got a few more convention appearances booked this summer. Come and say hi!

It was really great meeting fellow Fernwood cartoonist Axel (creator of Roach Town) and colouring book creator Shea Proulx. It was so awesome talking about making comics and the life of a freelance artist. Check out their stuff!

If you're interested in my comics with light swearing, wife-swapping jokes and cats licking themselves, check out my brand new online store! Or if you live in Victoria, head over to Legends Comics!
