Precious Stones

May 22, 2015 by Ryan Mason
 

After a conversation with a friend who had kidney stones, I couldn't help but feel that throwing them out is kind of wasteful. Personally, I'd wear them around my neck like those people who wear bullets that got dug out of them.

Bee Chord

May 21, 2015 by Ryan Mason
 

Granted I liked the name "Bee Chord," it came to me after I already drew the comic. I don't want people to think I'm living off puns here...

Kernel Battle

2015-05 Loose Kernel.jpg

Popcorn hulls are insidious... Strolling along our gum lines like they own the place, parkouring away from our tongues until we are filled with rage. I don't even think the birth of my first child will approach the sense of accomplishment I feel when I've freed a kernel.

No Food or Drink

2015-05 DMV Policy.jpg

I had to renew my tags and leave my coffee in the truck. Also, there are no visible clocks anywhere in the DMV, and without my phone on me to tell the time, I was truly in purgatory.

Dragon Slayer

May 16, 2015 by Ryan Mason
 

I don't often draw multi-panel comics, but some ideas require them. Because At Random appears in my collegiate paper, I have a certain set of dimensions to go by. After graduation, I will be free to create, longer vertical strips from time to time.

Very First T-Rex Victim

May 15, 2015 by Ryan Mason
 

It is a goal of mine to one day stand next to a T-Rex skeleton. I've been moderately obsessed with them throughout my life. T-Rex figurines, coffee mugs, countless jurassic park viewings, socks... Dinosaurs are to me, what One Direction is to teenage girls.

For the past four years I've been making comics for Oregon State University's paper The Daily Barometer. I've really enjoyed my time at OSU and the many great newspaper staffers I've met.

Puppy Savior

May 11, 2015 by Ryan Mason
 

My roommate recently adopted a cat from a rescue shelter and we've already become dear friends. I'm almost positive that if I had been present at the shelter, this would have been the outcome.
