About me, Lifehouse, and this comic

I've been a huge fan of Lifehouse since August 2007, and I've seen them perform 11 times. I made this picture about a week before the Kean concert, as a fake memento, because I had never met Lifehouse off stage until I saw them at Kean University in October 2008. But it's still good, because I didn't get a real photo of me and Jason. Afterwards I added the autographs to my T-shirt and re-scanned the drawing. The autographs are forged in this drawing, but the shirt really is autographed now.

I started drawing this comic strip in May 2008, right after Jason spotted me as the artist of the Simpsons picture. I started the comic strip for various reasons; as an outlet for my creativity-inspiring Lifehouse obsession, to entertain my fellow Lifehouse fans, to help fill a lack of Lifehouse-inspired literature on the internet, and because I became addicted (from one instance) to cartoon-prompted band recognition. Anyhow, despite the various reasons for starting this comic strip, I do have a concrete goal for it, which will most likely never be fulfilled: that Lifehouse posts a video of completely random events, and they state that the purpose is just to see what I'll make of it with my comic strip. Progress Although the goal has not been attained thus far, there have been a few steps of recognition: Bryce asked me about the comics at a concert in October 2008, saying that he wanted to link to them on the official site. Almost a year later, I found the URL listed on their links page (not linked). And a few days ago (October 2009), I found that they had banner-linked this site from their official MySpace page with my special Halloween banner. These are all forward steps toward the goal, however Lifehouse is digressing in that they have stopped posting video blogs on YouTube altogether, and are now only posting tiny video clips with practically no content on Kyte. I will still give Kyte a chance to fulfill the goal, but it seems less likely. Media & Resources I draw most of the comics with pen. A few of the comics and all of the website illustrations are pen and watercolor. Most of the website illustrations are based on real photos from the LifehouseMusic photo gallery and Lifehouse's MySpace photo albums. To make the comics themselves, I usually spend a long time looking through Becky's huge Lifehouse photo gallery at everythinglifehouse.com to get the right facial expressions and positions. And of course, Lifehouse's YouTube videos are the main source of inspiration for these comics. Send Your Ideas If you have an idea for a Lifehouse comic script, please send it in to sylvia.lh.bvb@gmail.com, and I might use it. If I do, I'll give you script credit. Or you can draw your own guest comic.
