WARNING! THE FOLLOWING COMIC IS INSENSITIVE AND CAN BE VERY UPSETTING.

HEY EVERYONE, 

IN THE LAST YEAR I HAVE RECEIVED A LOT OF UPSET EMAILS ABOUT THIS COMIC. I HAVE BEEN VERY CONFLICTED ABOUT WHAT TO DO WITH IT. THE COMIC WAS MADE DURING A TIME WHEN I MYSELF WAS DEALING WITH MY OWN ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, AND TRAUMA FROM PAST ABUSE. HUMOUR AND CYNICISM BEING ONE OF THE ONLY STRATEGIES I KNEW HOW TO DEAL WITH SUCH THINGS. MANY OF THESE OLDER COMICS YOU WILL NOTICE HAVE A DARKER AND MEANER EDGE. 

TIME HAS CHANGED THE COMIC AND ME. I'M STILL IMPERFECT AND I MAKE MISTAKES, BUT I AM WAY MORE EMPATHETIC AND KIND THAN I USED TO BE AND THAT IS REFLECTIVE IN THE COMIC NOW. THIS COMIC WHEN PLACED AGAINST MY CURRENT WORK IS VERY SHOCKING AND HURTFUL TO A LOT OF YOU AND I AM SORRY FOR THE PAIN THAT IT CAUSES. I WOULD NOT MAKE THIS KIND OF JOKE NOW, BUT IT IS PART OF THE ARC OF MY STORY. I AM LEAVING IT UP BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN BEING HONEST AND BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR OUR MISTAKES. IT ALSO ALLOWS US TO HAVE HARD CONVERSATIONS WHICH ARE WHAT ULTIMATELY LEAD TO GROWTH. 

I AM TRULY SORRY FOR THE HURT THIS COMIC CAUSES ANYONE. I NEVER THOUGHT AS A YOUNGER PERSON THAT A JOKE INVOLVING POKING A HOLE IN A CONDOM WITH A STAR WARS TOY WAS ASSUALT OR RAPE, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE ABUSE I SUFFERED SEEMED SO MUCH WORSE. I KNOW BETTER KNOW AND I AM SORRY. 

I AM OPEN TO CONTINUING THIS CONVERSATION IF YOU WOULD LIKE or IF YOU JUST WANT TO VENT OR BE ANGRY WITH ME, THAT IS OK AS WELL. I WILL BE THERE TO LISTEN. HERE IS MY EMAIL: lunarbabooncomics@gmail.com

All the best, 

CHRIS

why do all your cartoons showing a dad through the passage of time always involve hair loss?

Great one! Show a great insight on how opinion of others can change the way we do things if we choose to be affected by them ... and how fast opinion of us can change so fast! :)
