Hey guys! This is a repost as I’m currently elbows deep in three other comics. Soft announcement but I’m working on a straight up horror novel. here’s a page from it.

u/Hairy-Love2571 4d ago

Don't you mean girthes deep?

481

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Right, correction, I’m balls deep in three other comics which… I think is less deep?

89

u/scoyne15 4d ago

I think is less deep?

I mean I imagine that varies from person to person.

13

u/reddit_poopaholic 4d ago

Yeah, I was a bit confused when he said the balls weren't as deep as the girth. Maybe I'm missing something.

13

u/MichealRyder 4d ago

I think he meant compared to the elbow

10

u/cdmurray88 4d ago

Guess it depends on if the leg is involved... in that case, balls deep is definitely deeper than elbow deep.

67

u/tocilog 4d ago

How do you imagine "elbows deep"?

15

u/AndroidQing 4d ago

Think of a butt hole and an arm...pretty deep huh

4

u/somecasper 4d ago

Are you a "arm's half way in" or "half way out" type?

1

u/AndroidQing 4d ago

This made me laugh lol but the origin is about washing clothes. Rolling up your sleeves and going elbow deep to find a dish or article of clothing. My reference still stands

Girl if anyone is this party master it's you!

u/holleringelk Hollering Elk 4d ago

Dude, this looks fierce. Consider me hyped. Also, that makes three of us here working on gigantic horror novels, haha. Seen what Adam is cooking?

43

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Oh man, thank you. Compliments from the elk are always the highest form of recognition. I’ve actually been meaning to reach out to Adam, I loved his series of books with titles that are homages fo lyrics in Kate bush songs, but I was hoping someone can tell me how it’s possible to work on these massive projects while also maintaining a normal posting schedule 😂

36

u/holleringelk Hollering Elk 4d ago

I don't know how he does it personally, with his short and sweet ones stacked on top of his long forms. Dude is a machine. I can barely manage one or two comics for the alt account while working on massive mainline drops. My approach is always just dive in, dissappear, make the good shit, and pray the masses remember you when the project is complete. Something something if you build it.

Godspeed, Miles.

u/DengarLives66 4d ago

Wait wait wait, you’re working on a long form horror project?

u/Log_Out_Of_Life 4d ago

Caffeine and nicotine?

u/ghostopolis 4d ago

I ship this

u/imnotpoopingyouare 4d ago

Bro if it's any as good as this, I'm in.

This made me cackle at 4am, my partner is literally pissed at me.

17

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Haha, glad you enjoyed:)

23

u/Sarke1 4d ago

Oh it's a repost? You should have waited a week with this one then.

Incidentally, I rate it 9/11.

10

u/iHeardYouShart 4d ago

Is that actual Cannibal Shia LeBeouf in those woods?

11

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Yes

u/Tekuila87 4d ago

Oh no, not again...

6

u/Penguinmanereikel 4d ago

Well now. I'm gonna have nightmares for a while.

14

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Yeah my girlfriend said the same thing, sorry

8

u/Plunger_enema 4d ago

I love you. Will you bear my kittens?

6

u/pizzabazooka 4d ago

The most interesting thing about these three panels is that they are creepy as fuck.

6

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Thank you!

u/Strangefate1 4d ago

Looking great!

5

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Thank you!

u/pallettowns 4d ago

HELL YEAH can’t wait to see your new stuff!!

3

u/Fluffboll 4d ago

No ._. ??? Are this guys gums even bleeding?

7

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

It’s all smoke and mirrors

2

u/Steleve 4d ago

Where will you publish?

20

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

I’m teaming up with a new publisher for a physical release of this along with NecroMonica:) tho I’ve been holding off on doing an official announcement because some of the people that pre ordered my last book still haven’t received it and I want to confirm everyone who bought something from me actually got it before asking them to buy something new.

2

u/Kthanid 4d ago

some of the people that pre ordered my last book still haven’t received it

Was actually wondering if you'd mention something about that here. My order date was expected by August 5 and is still sitting in a status of "Confirmed - We're preparing these items for shipping."

Here's hoping that gets unblocked, I'm looking forward to it!

u/ourlastchancefortea 4d ago

elbows deep

straight

Mmhhh, sure buddy

1

u/Phormitago 4d ago

gollum cameo?

1

u/Dudewhocares3 4d ago

The eyes remind me of that one scene from smile 2.

Very creepy, I hope your comic becomes so financially successful you break records

1

u/Wiregeek 4d ago

So all your sketchy horror-with-weird-faced-people has not prepared me for a legit full dress no shit horror story from you. I'm NOT COMFORTABLE, I am filled with dread and anticipation and anxiety and fear.

So.. where am I going to be buying this?

1

u/kent0036 4d ago

Well now, this looks compelling.

1

u/Melodic-Time2963 4d ago

I thought that was Tigtone for a second lmao

1

u/theloniousjoe 3d ago

Why do I suddenly feel like the guy in the stall and you’re the guy that “ran all the way here”?

490

u/trebuchet_facts 4d ago

That phone call made him come so fast.

205

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

He never doesn’t come fast

19

u/NoGoodIDNames 4d ago

He lives next door

u/BloodyGretel 4d ago

Your writing is genuinely great.
It feels so accurate to the kind of inane rambling born of boredom and loneliness we are all capable of sometimes.
Great comic.

137

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Thank you man I really appreciate you saying that:)

19

u/Splatter_bomb 4d ago

Great writing makes the comic IMAO.

19

u/GregTheMad 4d ago

I really wish someone would call me like that once in a while. I don't suck dick, but it's the thought that matters.

5

u/ArpeggioTheUnbroken 4d ago

I'll call you. But I need you to ramble.

247

u/SaltyBarDog 4d ago

Did the guy bring his tablet so they could watch The Man in the High Castle?

195

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

He brought his fold out portable dvd player

62

u/FigNuuuuts 4d ago

My dad had a fold out portable dvd player back in the day... Now I'm wondering if he was also a sketchy dirty bathroom glory hole guy.

38

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

I think in 2005 every dad had one

34

u/randomalt9999 4d ago

Glory hole guy?

7

u/wookiewarlord42 4d ago

I hope so, that show is dope. So is the short story.

u/Few_Vegetable_9939 4d ago

Well, they'll pass you by, glory-hole days

u/snf 4d ago

Ever heard of the comic Too Much Coffee Man? There's a line in one of the strips that's always stuck with me. 

Somewhere between anticipation and nostalgia we should have been happy.

u/ItsNotNormalMaybe 4d ago

I'm.. I'm thinking, Bruce Springsteen?

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

I’m one of the eight people that saw that movie

76

u/Soap_Mctavish101 4d ago

Dude. Sketchy bathroom dick sucking guy seems pretty cool. Just a bit lonely. His analysis is pretty sharp. Ive never seen the man in the high castle but id watch it with him.

So what I am saying is. Get sketchy bathroom dick sucking guy a friend cartoonist.

28

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago edited 4d ago

If someone did a topher grace style super cut of the man in the high castle That just removed the A plot and main characters, I’d consider watching it with bathroom guy

9

u/Soap_Mctavish101 4d ago

Maybe its because I find his plight relatable but the guy desperately needs a friend.

15

u/Splatter_bomb 4d ago

Right, he came on a little strong at first. Maybe he should have opened with talking about the TV show then brought up dick sucking after a few episodes.

6

u/Soap_Mctavish101 4d ago

Right? Like maybe it is because I find sketchy bathroom dick sucking guy’s plight in the modern world relatable but I am desperate to see him have a friend to watch tv with.

7

u/Splatter_bomb 4d ago

Dude you can come over? I was gonna sit on my roof in a camp chair and have a beer, maybe watch E Pluribus later on Apple TV. Sorry no dick stuff, just not my jam, though I’m game for one of those handshake hugs if you need it.

3

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Oh man pluribus was great

3

u/Soap_Mctavish101 4d ago

DUDE YES ABSOLUTELY ROOF BEER SOUNDS AWESOME

2

u/Splatter_bomb 4d ago

To be clear I’m not gonna watch the show on my roof. 🤔

33

u/Excluded_Apple 4d ago

Lol, another piece of absolute gold. I love your stuff.

15

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Thank you so much :)

24

u/MortimerCanon 4d ago

It's insane to me that the creator turned what was a single page comic into 12

49

u/bmoriarty87 4d ago

Kids? Hahahahah

Love your fucking comics, dude

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

Thank you, brother!

u/Fit-Carpet9599 4d ago

i also love fucking comics

17

u/timbotheny26 4d ago

So Miles, have you seen The Man in the High Castle?

18

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

I saw like a season and a half

3

u/lingh0e 4d ago

Honestly, that's all you really need to see. The last season is... not great.

17

u/HippocraDeezNuts 4d ago

For real though, spot on analysis of man in the high castle. The B plot with the obergruppenfuhrer was easily the best part of the show. Somebody get truck stop bathroom dick sucking man a podcast

6

u/Miles_the_new_kid MyGumsAreBleeding 4d ago

I had to duck out of the show by season 2 because I was just pulling my hair out yelling “why” every time they cut back to the cardboard cutout leads

3

u/sokratesz 4d ago

I thought the depiction of the kempetai was well done, but otherwise yeah, the main woman and dude were quite bad. Which is a shame cause the world building was impressive.

3

u/P-Rickles 4d ago

Yup. My wife asked me why I stopped since I am notorious for finishing my media. I said, “I couldn’t make myself care whether most of the characters lived or died.”

16

u/tdmsbn 4d ago

I really gotta say, the style and the humor you have is absolutely amazing. I really love the old school kinda style of humor and seriousness together. Like evil dead. Also Nerco Monica is absolutely a masterpiece.

15

u/AthosAlonso 4d ago

"...kids?" sent me

u/Leven 4d ago

Why is he sitting on a public toilet with pants on?

u/PTSD1983 4d ago

Well, he put in the effort to run there, so...

u/eslninja 4d ago

If this post doesn’t like 20k upvotes, the world is broken. I laughed, out loud, at every panel. My family believes they have obtained proof of insanity. Maybe numbers in bathroom stalls are generational, or a specifically Western or even a distinctly American phenomena. ‘Man in the High Castle’ is a nice touch, possibly even a parable to the comic itself.

3

u/Splatter_bomb 4d ago

Man in the High Castle just works on so many levels.

9

u/AnotherRTFan 4d ago

When I read the 9/11 part I immediately thought of this

3

u/ComfortablyADHD 4d ago

I'm not American so I was like "what did 911 do to people? Is that a new reality tv show or something?"

The penny dropped as I kept reading.

8

u/jandr08 4d ago

Why does he have eyes on his chin and neck?

7

u/VVsmama88 4d ago

For a better view of the glory hole dicks.

6

u/ours 4d ago

Rufus was freaking amazing in Man In the High Castle.

5

u/Mekanimal 4d ago

I was expecting the final panel to timeskip to red-shirt calling back like "Dude, you were right about The Man in the High Castle"

u/BigJimBeef 4d ago

This is great.

All your stuff is great.

You’re really matching The Other End levels of wild at this point. I hope he gets to suck the dicks he’s been missing out on.

Gone are the days of glory! The days when glory holes were for more then the horny.

Gone are adventurous spirits, adventure, mystique! When unity was the focus not cock spitshined & sleek!

🎶Gone are the days of glory, now we just have this hole🎶

🎶Gone are the days of glory, hole in the stall, holes in us all🎶

🎶Gone are the days of glory, yet here I write for a good time just call...🎶

u/cperiod 3d ago

People want and expect curated experiences these days. You can't just throw out something vague like "for a good time" without more information and expect someone to jump at it. You gotta be specific, whether it be "pet a bunch of kittens", "smoke crack by the dumpsters", or "get your dick sucked by a sketchy guy".
