Users' Manual:
Comics and illustrations from a friendly neighborhood cloister, for anyone and everyone!
Each comic/illustration will be tagged with its characters or subject, so head on to the archives if you're looking for something specific.
Some comics and illustrations here are of my own book characters; even so, I try my best to make the jokes understandable to everyone. So don't be wary of any comic! And if in doubt, read any text to a post.
Also, for any post, click on the image and it will bring you to its original size. This may prove helpful for reading text bubbles, or simply if you want to go mad at the detail of sharpie strokes. It's your call.

Oblivious
I was baffled to find that coffee cup on the shampoo shelf after I toweled off.
Anyways, after a busy weekend, I'm glad to get back to posting! I was feeling a little rusty after not having done a strip for three days.

Turning 50? Who, me?
Yes, you, father.
No comic for Friday, because I was busy whipping up this spiffy cake! Happy birthday, Baldie!
And now I shall excuse myself; there's frosting in my hair that needs washing.

Thanks for the ONE THOUSAND!
One thousand. One thousand! That's a special number! In fact, a huge number! I can't even wrap my head around the fact that people have visited this hole-in-the-wall comic blog over one thousand times. It's simply astonishing, and even more so, simply humbling.
There's no way I could ever give enough thanks to everyone, from one-time visitors to regular traffic, for taking the time out of your days to see my comics. I know, I know, I do these "thank-yous" a lot. But I'm serious each time: I appreciate every single visit. The best way I can think to pay back the favor is to keep comics coming, fresh off the scanner: and that's exactly what I plan to do. So hang your metaphorical coat, kick back, and stay a while! Uly's Comics is here to stay.
So thank you again, for all the support you all give. It's a treat to make these comics for everyone: I hope they brighten your days, just like you all brighten mine.
Have an amazing day, everyone!

Apologies for Repeat Postings
As some of you might notice, I've reposted a few comics from the past couple of days. I apologize for this; I know it's confusing. These posts were first taken down by Blogger during their shut-down for maintenance a while back, and when Blogger was up and running again, they returned but with one problem... all of the tags were "smooshed" together into one, big tag. I tried to fix that, but for some reason I couldn't. So I had to delete and repost for the sake of organized archives.
Have a great day everyone, and thanks for sticking through this little reposting conundrum!

My Cat, In A Nutshell.
Tyrant, is he.
My cat isn't often mentioned in comics, but I should more often:
I got him as a kitten from farm, and we had to remove one eye (it was infected). He's a spoiled momma's boy and quite the duplicitous creature. All I can say is that his name suits him perfectly: Hannibal, a charmer in public but a fiend in private!
He chose that name. It was between that and Caligula; I wrote the two on slips of paper and set them next to him. He played with the "Hannibal" slip.
And the rest is history!

Honest Momma
I love how honest my mother is. It's part of her charm!
Additional appearances: my sister Amanda. Cameo: my one-eyed cat, Hannibal.
Extra kudos to Amanda for requesting this strip!

Thanks for the 700!
This hole-in-the-wall comics blog just recently hit 700+ visitors; I'm more than ecstatic over it! So thank you for all the support and for making my day with this unprecedented number. I always appreciate that people take the time out of their days to drop by and look at the comics, whoever and wherever visitors are. Especially those overseas and across the globe; it's always exciting to see people from different countries converge at this little blog! I put my heart and soul into these comics for all of you.
Also, I see lately that people from webcomics directories are heading this way: to visitors who fall in that category, extra thanks!
(Also, special mention to my friend Brianna, who asked that this dedication involve her. The two of us are stalking our favorite figures from the zero: Brianna scoping Robert Pattinson, and me, Andrej Pejic. Friends who stalk together rock together!)
Thank again, and have a great day, everyone! Also, comic for today is on the way. -Uly

Clothing Switch!
My book characters' clothing is pretty routine. Robes, tunics, kurtas, that sort of thing. So I wondered what they'd wear if they had modern clothes.
Pictured from left to right...
Hayaku, wearing baggy clothes because even in the book, his clothes are twice his size and he likes it that way.
Sarikah, wearing amazing maternity clothes and all their stretchy wonder because she's pregnant.
Yusu, wearing a load of tie-dye because she always wears flowy, bohemian clothes. (Even in the book; she wears caftans and sandalwood beads in her hair.)
Aya, wearing manly clothes for manly men. Because he is manly, dammit. (This is a running gag in the book; he's always over-asserting his manliness. Why? Because Amaya emasculates him somehow.)
Me, wearing what royal women might wear in the book.
Lochan, wearing scrubs because they're for doctors, which he is one.
Amaya, wearing sexy nightclub jeans. Because he'll be damned if he doesn't look hot.

Geek Rave
As geeky as I sound to admit it, "Spider-Man/X-Men:Arcade's Revenge" has the best SGMD soundtrack ever. Also: who else punched to the music while riding the minecart in Cyclop's level? Please tell me I'm not the only one.

Thanks for the 500!
Just the other day, the counter for visitors to this hole-in-the-wall comics blog hit a landmark: 500 visitors! Let me thank all of you for taking the time out of your busy days to see new comics, bum about the archives, and for giving me so much support! I wouldn't do what I do here on ulyscomics if not for you guys. So thanks again, and kanpai/skaal/salud/prost, or however you say "cheers"!

Night Writer
Originally drawn for an online forum that has a fun project of member-submitted drawings/comics as of late.
But speaking otherwise; for this, I fear nighttime writer's block. Waking up, it goes like this: "Uuuurgh... morning... hmm. Oh...oh, COME ON!"
