Patreon 2.0 is coming along. You should see the new layout, the new features, the new coolness of it all. I’m working hard to get things ready for you and to entertain you when you become a patron. The page is still a work-in-progress at this point with no official launch date. However, at the rate things are going, it’ll be soon-ish.
Reader Questions: Do Comics Have the Same Depth as Novels?
A classic battle: Comics vs Books. Which conveys a story better? Do novels have more depth than comics? Do they have the same plot points and characterization? The answer might surprise you.
Axiom-man in black. Hmmm. I’ve been toying with the idea of introducing a kind of stealth costume into THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA. A uniform he could wearing when he has to really conceal himself at night. Not quite sure as yet where this would fit in the storyline but I think it’s a cool piece anyway so what to share it here. Besides, my Artwork page needed a new piece.

What’s cool is I also used this image for items in my Merch Shop. Go check it out to see what it was used on.
I was playing around in Canva and made this mini promo for the FREDRIKUS webcomic. Canva said the thing is clickable but I’m not so sure. Give it a try. Can’t hurt.
Thank you for watching.

It’s definitely not like other writers’ offices with books everywhere and a computer. It’s also not like your traditional artist studio with the smell of paint on the air and lots of brushes and pens laid out.
When I say in my newsletter I work in a bunker, well, you’ll see that I’m not far off.
My studio was originally going to be a basement bathroom but the previous owners of the house didn’t finish it. They got as far as framing it and marking out on the cement floor what goes where (i.e. the tub here, the toilet there, etc). So, I went out and got a roll of carpet, cut it to size, put it down, then put all my equipment where I wanted it to be. What I forgot to mention in the video is the computer desk I’m using I’ve had since I was about 5 or 6. It’s small, but I’ve made it work and the room is too small to put in something new from IKEA or wherever. Besides, one of the drawers has a sticker on it one of my kids put on it when they were toddlers. Yeah, I’m sentimental like that.
Anyway, this is it, the A.P. Fuchs 2023 Studio Tour. This is where I produce my books and comics and make sure they get out to you.
Hope you dig my little nerd’s nest.
Welcome to the real-life Realm of Heroes and Monsters!
Interview with Travis Bruce’s Horror-Realm YouTube Channel
On Saturday night, Travis Bruce interviewed me for his YouTube channel in which he does indie creator spotlights. And he’s done a lot of them. It was a lot of fun being on the show and we talked superheroes and monsters and posed questions to each other about various superhero vs monster scenarios. We also talked GIGANTI-GATOR DEATH MACHINE, the METAHUMANS vs monsters series, and some AXIOM-MAN stuff.
Video below. Tune in. Lots of laughs and pop culture talk, too.
Here is my introduction to my YouTube Shorts, a new section on my YouTube channel. Playlist below the video. Comment on this post with your own channel and a sentence or two of what it’s about. Might get some new viewers and subscribers.
Be sure to subscribe. Lots of video on deck. Lots of cool Pop Culture stuff along with books and comics!
Here you go, folks, my TikTok introduction video which I finally had time to create. I do hope you subscribe to my channel. What’s cool about TikTok is I can quickly vLog about things, showcase collectibles, promote my books and comics, and just have a good time without going through the longer video production that I normally do for my YouTube videos. (Which, by the way, as of this writing, I have two cool long videos to put together and post so stay tuned.)
So, yeah, here I am on TikTok. Come join the party!
If you need to contact me, as always, use the contact page on this site. Peace.
Edit: When I set up this post, the video showed up fine but when it posted-posted, the video gets cut off. I’m going to leave it up as it’s probably WordPress and the TikTok embed feature working out a few bugs. Hopefully it’ll post in full soon.
I’ve been keeping busy as I recover from burn out. Fredrikus is getting my top priority. New episodes have been airing and I’m having a ball making them for you. I also seemed to have found my comic-making groove, which is a good thing.
As for other projects, they are temporarily on the back burner as I ease my way back into creating. They’re not going away and will get done, but my health comes first and I’m content just doing Fredrikus for the time being.
To start reading Fredrikus, go here. It will take you to the first page, which is the cover to Issue No. 1. If you’ve been reading the strips, just go to the site proper for the latest comic.
And, as usual, if you need to contact me, you can do so by going here.
