Salutations, people that live inside my computer.

The english version of Bury Everyone now has a mostly functioning website. You can now read all 3 chapters so far at buryeveryone.au. Finally you can read chapter 1 all at once instead of in multiple parts.

I was actually a little worried that I wouldn't be able to get that specific domain. If you know anything about Australia's graphic/mature content laws, you'll know they're very inconsistent and ultimately arbitrary so while the chances of some influential dickhead finding BE and wanting it off the internet are extremely slim, it's still a possibility (fuck you if you're that guy). Fortunately auDA's response was "that's none of our business" so for now it stays.

Now I just have to copy everything for Gabbo's spanish translation.

I'll start chapter 4 when I finish my commissions. New chapters will still come out on Newgrounds but it helps to have them in isolation.

Hello and happy underground meat day you cunts. Sadly the age on my newgrounds profile has just ticked over to 25 which means it's all downhill from here. Join me on my irritating power-walk towards an early grave at 48 years old.

Few updates regarding BE. I have scripts for chapters 4 - 7 written but there could still be some edits yet. I'm yet to draw any pages. I've also bought to domain Buryeveryone.au which I'll be working on after I finish this load of commissions.

That's all for now. I don't know if this post was even worth it.

Hello everyone. Little bit late writing this but Bury Everyone #3 is finally out. Somehow the shortest episode yet.

Again, the real MVP this time around is @gabb0sketches who despite my whinging, redid all of my wall graffiti. Any readers that can read both English AND Spanish let me know if he hid any secret messages calling me a cunt.

I only recently remembered he has newgrounds, even if he never posts and the only thing he's uploaded is Death Clown era porn. I'm a shitty boss I guess.

I'm still thinking about how to go about requesting cover art. I'm assuming just stick an ad up on the help wanted section asking to look at their commission info and pick whoever's would fit best? We'll see.

On the production side of things, working based on scripts has its own issues vs working based on thumbnails. Believe it or not there's an old version of Tam diagnosing Epper that goes for even longer before I shaved some of it off. They're easier to get started working on at least. You can tell I had Parasyte on the mind while drawing this one. I don't even like the series that much but then again I've never read the mango

Thanks everyone who's been reading, especially those who have stuck around since the Death Clown days (you poor bastards). You guys rule. Hope you're looking forward to chapters 4 - 6 as much as I am. You have no idea where this is going.

Once again, I won't be able to start chapter 4 for a while. Not until I get some work outside the comic done. If I can give a few hints as to what it's gonna be like, it won't be as bleak as 2 and 3 and will probably be longer. See you then.

Evening, nerds.

Chapter 3 of Bury Everyone is pretty much finished in english and just needs to be translated, a process I'm dreading for reasons that donors to the patreon will probably be aware of (for those who don't know, I redo the hand-written text for the spanish chapters based on what Gabbo tells me to write) so that's absolutely fantastic. After this one goes up I'm going to be having another little break from BE as I have some commitments to take care of outside of the comic. I want to set up a proper website before drawing anymore chapters (the longer I put it off the more work it becomes). Against my better judgement, I'm probably gonna do art fight again this year (we'll see), etc. I feel like #3 at least ends in a way that sets up the next bit of the series nicely.

That being said, I have an idea I want to try out for chapters 4, 5 and 6 whenever that comes around. I kinda don't like stopping everything to draw cover art right at the end so I've decided you can draw it.

Maybe.

I'm not sure how exactly I'm gonna go about it yet so don't go sending me your info yet, but I am considering paying other artists for cover art.

That's all for now. See you when #3 goes up.

Sup bitches.

I've finally been relieved from duty and am working on chapter 3 of Bury Everyone. I'm trying something a little different this time in terms of pre-production and I'm back to writing manuscripts instead of thumbnail sketches with dialogue that I'll inevitably stray from when I decide things need more panel space. I find this way is easier to organise my thoughts in terms of the story but the main drawback is I have no idea how long it'll be (I guess I never do though). Ch3 could be 10 pages or it could be 20+ but I've had it in my head for a while that it'll probably be around the length of or shorter than ch2. It depends how lost Epper becomes in her own thoughts. You know how she is by now.

So when can you expect ch3?

I don't know if it'll be out in March but certainly in April provided I don't have a crisis like it seems I always do while making webcomics. I have 2 completed pages and I'm drawing a third as I write this. As soon as that one is finished I'll be putting them up on Patreon. There might be another break after I finish this one. I'm planning on ch4,5,6 being a three-parter before starting a new arc which I'm REALLY looking forward to starting. I'm anticipating it being a real pain in the ass to draw. See you then I guess.

Hate is a strong word but it makes for a good title.

I bring this topic up a lot on twatter but because that site is an absolute mess and people on there headcanon real life and don't listen, I figured it would be better to post an explanation here where I can fully explain myself.

Sandy is probably most popular character despite how little I draw her, at least on twitter. I drew her in 2021 as an inside joke between me and Saltynoodles along the lines of "twitter artists will jack it to anything, I bet they'd get hard for a cockroach girl." When it actually came time to draw her, I kept adding more segments. Cockroach became Isopod and Isopod became Centipede.

I posted her and people really liked it, which was pretty funny to me at the time because it meant I was right. I like to stroke my ego and think this makes me one of the few people to successfully force a meme, even if it was restricted to an extremely niche part of the internet. One time I got commissioned to draw her in a maid outfit and it made it onto rule34.xxx. It was rated as "questionable"

As for why I don't draw her, no matter how many times I try to explain myself I see people twist it as me being "bewildered by her popularity" (despite the fact she was made to be bait). The real answer is simple.

I got tired of the joke.

That's it really. I had my fun and didn't want my notifications to be filled with "would" or "hear me out" or "zamn" or that stupid American Dragon screenshot. If you followed me around 2020/2021 during the peak of among us' popularity you know how quickly I tire of seeing the same tired old joke and I tired of this one too.

I probably will draw her again at some point but man the reaction (even if its technically positive) sucks the life out of me. I can't stand being the center of attention.

Fuck you, Sandy

Hello everyone. Bit of an update on Bury Everyone. I'll be upfront and say I haven't drawn a single page for chapter 3 yet. I've spent most of February working on commissions (two very big ones in particular) and taking breaks from art when I can. This coupled with adjusting to the new PC and crippling Terraria addiction are slowing me down for now. I realise I've kinda shot myself in the foot by finishing chapter 2 less than a month after the first but readers who have been around since the Death Clown days know I'm not great with consistency.

In terms of content it won't be very long, possibly shorter than the last one. In any case, I'm not burnt out on the series or anything, in fact I'm ready to go as soon as my schedule is freed up.

I'm terrible with release dates but assuming I get it done relatively quickly, expect something around the middle of March.

That's all. Toodles.

Hello worms.

I told you this chapter would be red!

Bury Everyone #2 is out ahead of schedule. I got up at 5am just to post it as soon as I got the spanish pages. I would've liked to sleep more and do it the following night but I have appointments to wake up for these next few days. If you've been around since Death Clown, this is the furthest into this story I've gotten so far. Most future chapters will be closer to 20 pages instead of huge beasts like ch1. The manuscript for ch3 is ready to go when I feel like drawing it.

Let's not beat around the bush any further.

Holy shit, there's BOOBS in this chapter?!

Yes.

Grow up.

Nah but seriously I think I must've caught some people off guard with this one, especially towards the end.

I'm not apologising. Not really much else to say about this one I guess. I kinda got most of the baggage out on that first chapter rant post. This one came out really quickly. What I will say is I've moved to a new pc (an actual desktop this time) and it's taking some getting used to.

Seriously though, here's one question I've been getting since Death Clown:

Can I release my own native language version of Bury Everyone?

The short answer is yes, if you're willing to handle the responsibility.

I'm already balancing 2 versions of the comic with Gabbo and we're spread pretty thin. 3 would be too much. If you have the time, patience and resources to produce a Portugese, Italian, Ugandan, Japanese, Romanian, Indonesian or Urdu version of Bury Everyone (provided you don't violate copyright), you can go right ahead with my blessing but it's your responsibility to keep it up to date.

See you in the next one then!

Hello worms.

Horrid New Year and thanks for reading the first chapter of Bury Everyone.

Firstly, I'm sure most of you have noticed a lot has changed since the Death Clown days. The old website is unfortunately down, but I'm thinking of sticking an archive up here (or somewhere) for the sake of preservation if you guys would want that, even if I think the new material is better.

Some questions you probably have:

Why the title change?

Bury Everyone used to be called "Death Clown" but partway through working on that I learned there's already a comic called "Dead Clown" from the 90s and I wanted the first result on Google. Also saves me from potential legal bullshit.

Why is Epper like that?

This is probably the main thing the old readers want to know. Epper has always been somewhat of a comfort character for me and it's been a pretty fucked up year for old Grumpy, so I've dragged her (and the rest of the series) into the depths of despair with me. I also feel the cynicism is appropriate given her line of work and it's a lot easier to write.

What the fuck is Tickles?

Part of the problem I was having with Death Clown towards the end was I found it boring and unsatisfying to draw. The reason Tickles is a grotesque mass of flesh now is because it was the kind of thing I would doodle in my high school work books when I was bored. Drawing him now is almost like meditation for me. Entrails helps me de-stress I guess. As for why he's grafted to Epper, that was actually an idea I had for later on in DC and brought forward.

Why so long?

Ironically, to make it easier to get through. One of the missteps I feel with the Sore arc of DC was its length and how broken up it was as an opener. I figure one big long chapter is an easier read than 10 short ones, but that may have been undone by the limitations of Newgrounds only allowing a certain number of pages (not a big deal). It'll make sense when its all been compiled on a new site.

Where is Crust

He's within us all.

Why so edgy?

In May of 2023 I had a traumatic experience at my last job.

I swear all of what you're about to read is true. You might want to skip this part.

While I was waiting to get on the bus home, the driver told me a passenger was having heart problems and tasked me with getting an AED from inside (literally 50 meters away). With very little time, I did what I was I told. Touching that thing was like opening Pandora's Box. The very first thing I heard when I grabbed it was "put that back."

Not "what do you need that for? Do you know how to use that thing?" but "put that back."

At this point a crowd is gathering, including one store manager who comes to the front and attempts to gaslight me into thinking the person having a heart attack is in her store. I end up being told to stay where I am for 10 - 15 minutes and wait for security, who puts it back in its box and tells me it's not allowed to leave the building.

I have no idea if the passenger survived. It still makes me lightheaded.

I've made it no secret that I have very little faith in humanity, even before this experience, but I had no idea how disgusting regular people (not the rich and powerful) could truly be up until that day. It was like watching the curated image that every person on Earth sets up for themselves shatter right in front of me. Like I could suddenly see right through all 8 billion of them, expecting to find a rotten soul, but instead finding nothing.

I started working on Bury Everyone in June.

One of the main things I was worried about in writing for BE was that people would pick up on the misanthropy and nihilism and dismiss it as edgelord "we live in a society/we are the virus" wank. I considered toning it down a few times but ultimately decided against it. I've always believed that it's better for art to be genuine than to try and please everyone. This story will be ugly and a lot of people won't like it for that fact, but it's mine.

Things to improve:

• Inconsistent art: This is the main one. If I could go back and do the chapter again I would try to do it faster. The 6 months I spent working on it lead to inconsistencies in the art as I was still learning new techniques/brushes as I was working on it. The first few pages are especially weird since many of the panels were recycled from test pages I did back in March, which are now nearly a year old. Most of this is a consequence of the chapter's length.

• Sprout design: The choice to make Sprouts less humanoid and more grotesque was intentional and more fitting tonally, but I feel Scab's design made him difficult to convey in action scenes.

• Pacing: I feel like the second act moved way too fast. Maybe it works to convey the panic, but I also kinda don't like drawing action (unless Voca is involved). I could still be burnt out after DC. Future chapters will most likely be more measured.

• Thumbnailing: I have a bad habit of not sticking to my thumbnail sketches and dedicating more or less panel space to certain moments when it comes time to actually draw them. Because of this I had no idea how long the chapter would actually be until it was over, only that it would be around 70 pages (it ended up being 87). It's probably something I should have down during drafting to save myself from stressing.

• CSP comic templates: They're very limiting. Actually drawing the panel frames myself instead of using a tool could allow for more freedom and better composition, but could result in growing pains as I get used to it.

• Blue: I'm sick of it. Next chapter is gonna be red.

Well that's it! I've got some patreon rewards to draw now. See you in the next one!
