the days are long and short

Matthew Bogarts' Tumblr Blog

I’m a cartoonist living in Portland Oregon. I recently finished a graphic novel called The Chairs’ Hiatus which you can read for free.

Come back when you can and I’ll try and make it worth it.

Ask me anything.

    I’m on a hunt. I’m on the hunt for people who are doing comics online the way that I want to read them. They have to be out there. From what I understand, web comics haven’t grown up the way everyone thought they would the last time I was playing in this medium. Longform comics are the exception, and short one day per day strips are the general rule. I don’t have anything against serialized self-contained one page comics. In fact, years ago I can remember lamenting the fact that such a thing have mostly died off. But what I enjoy reading the most are longer form comics where the pacing is more more akin to that of a feature film then a short film. I truly believe there has to be an audience out there full of people like me. So will someone please point me to the blog I can read that introduces me to all these wonderful stories? Or even just send me a link to something? View high resolution
