Chef Gobbett, first name withheld for anonymity purposes, has been a driving force in keeping the confidence up for the creator of Ninja and Pirate. This guy, whom I’ve never actually met, heaps praise and gifts on me just for making my comic. Seriously, the dude bought me a YEAR of Reddit Gold one time and what did I do? I said I’d make him a personalized commission sketch right away! And I did…start one. And lost it. And started another. And got embarrassed it had taken so long and just sort of shrunk away and never brought it up again. Chefman isn’t an actual comic artist but he is one heck of a painter and, I’m assuming, a culinary one seeing as he’s cooked for the White House before, if I remember correctly. So really, thank you Gobbett. You’re one of the many reasons I keep this comic going because as long as one person wants and expects it I’ll do my best to make it- and I know Gobbett will want and expect it.
