WormHole Square is updated every Monday, including, a single panel cartoon and also, a NewsLike blog that covers the WormHole Square world. Like its moniker, the strip features humor that goes beyond the four sides of the basic comic strip structure. WormHole Square is based in skewed observation at times, but then it drops off the table into abstract absurdity. All this without a net or clean underwear. The ComicScripts page is updated when time allows. Hopefully, soon, the ComicScript Page will update every Monday.
About the artist/writer/visionary rubber band shooter/collector
WormHole Square was created by, and is drawn by, Michael Wainwright. Known to his friends as MW, he attended the Maryland Institute College of Art, before leaving under the scandalous cloud of bootlegging linseed oil and liquid pastels into Canada. He is also an avid collector of pelican shoes.
Location:
The strip is drawn at a super secluded rice paddy location near Baltimore. MW works 23 hours a day on the WormHole, except during the rainy season, of course. It’s not easy drawing strange things on bristol board when a multitude of feet are trampling through his studio.
Characters:
As of right now, there are no singular characters that comprise WormHole Square. The strip works more as an ensemble, with the various character types trying to adapt to the ongoing absurd circumstances as best they can. All the characters are method actors. True professionals, who work long hours at sub-plebian wages. They do it for the love of the craft. This, we adore without limit. In time, there will be those who will emerge and appear in the strip on a semi-regular basis. New: Sammy Smegma… Because people who live in foreskin houses shouldn’t throw stones.
My Motivation:
The sun… but only when it is incorrectly spelled ‘son’. The bird I rescued from an illegal pelican fight club. Fugitive pillbugs on the run from the law, who roll up into a little ball to escape persecution, who then unfurl only to find the world just a little bit colder and cheese just a little bit harder. Stirring my cocoa counter clockwise for all of the Australian homies who can’t be here.
My Accomplishments:
Only person to ever exploit Monopoloy loophole and erect 4 hotels on Baltic Avenue. Once left my own shadow for 24 hours, with no next day ‘hangover’ affects. Decoded the redacted portions of the transcripts from the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings and uncovered the 517 ingredients inside a Corn Dog. Once built a bottle inside a ship. Once spoke in first and third person simultaneously during lunch, thus obligating a fourth person to pick up the check.
Things that I have Invented:
Diceless version of Craps. Asphalt suitable for kitchen floors. Non-dissolving aspirin to minimize stomach upset. Invented ultra-low form of electricity – suitable for powering short, plotless dreams ( monochrome only ) and tiny microwave ovens inside model trains.
