I just realized something. Lynn says she hasn’t used for “nine years, three months, and sixteen days.” She’s been married for over 14 years. That means she slipped after they were married. Maybe that’s why they moved to Peregrine Lake.
Yup. If you feel like mathing it out, Peregrine Lake technically takes place in early 2030 (because UnCONventional stuck to real time pretty closely I had to pick a real year for the time jump for Megan and Lynn’s ages to be where I wanted them)
(Edited to add: The move happened several years afterwards in canon, and per the UnCONventional epilogue was more due to Megan coming into some money from her brother buying out her share of the family business)
One year ago, on April 16th 2024, the first page of Peregrine Lake went online. One year since we first met Bev as she drove through a snow storm and said the exact thing most of us have said in that scenario.
It took so long for Peregrine Lake to get off the ground. I first announced it back in December of 2019, and originally I was going to draw it. And then the world fell apart, and I found myself with zero ability to draw it anymore. I kept kicking the idea around, wanting to move it forward when in 2023 I jokingly suggested to my friend Ethan that they could draw the comic for me.
And they said yes, they'd love to, and I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth.
We then spent almost a year regularly meeting, talking about my plans for the plots, the world, the characters, and all the things that would have otherwise just lived in my head. I started scripting comics, and Ethan got to work on concept art. And for most of 2023 we planned and got ready, and we hit the ground running in 2024.
And now we're here. Honestly, I love everything we've put out over the last year. Ethan's art is incredible, and tells the story in a way that I'm not sure mine would have. I love this comic, I love that you all are reading it, and I'm excited to show you what's coming next.
Because we've only just scratched the surface on how weird this is going to get.
On April 26th I'm going to be at Concinnity in Milwaukee, WI! Stop on by and say hi if you're in town!

Still, compared to Funky Winkerbean…
