"be my valentine... nobody else wants you anyway."

[goth-boyfriends]

hello, hello! i'm ken and i love to create! i make this post to compile my works and where you can find them!

most of my comics are free and on comicfury! comicfury profile you can support comicfury on patreon and kofi!

___ my ongoing projects are: goth boyfriends

"goths? in your area?! more likely than you think! Follow the trials and tribulations of young adults wanna be goths as they navigate through life, love and... cringe! slam poetry sundays, queer self discovery and complicated friendships, all wrapped in spikes, crosses, leather and anything dark, cool & edgy really!"

updates: every 3 days

it also have a tumblr blog for it, i'll try to use it more for extra art and such and share updates! : )

MSAT

Music Sounds Awesome Together is a collection of one shots centred around the life of a few idiots phasing through time and space together. Includes a LOT of yappin', you have no idea.

updates: no schedules (it has some characters in common with "goth boyfriends", but except their names, sometimes appearances and some personality traits they are not the same at all. Sorry if it is confusing)

completed/one shots (it's a selection, but i have more, you can even find really sort one on the comics tag of my tumblr)

-dreamteam69 "The last match of the Dream Team..." for the 2019's edition of the 23h de la Bande Dessinée

-LUNNARP a bts fancomic "Yoongi vs. an IKEA table ft. 6 idiots"

-PigritiAdes The Adventures of Fleur and her Demon. for the 2018's edition of the 25h de la Bande Dessinée

you can find more comics on my itchio, compiled as pdf, a lot of fanzines, most of them free! and if you're cursed with the ability to understand french, i did a lot of 23h et 25h de la bande dessinée! name there is okenki as well!

i also made some games! mostly during game jams, all are free! they're all vns and can also be found on my itchio! i am very active on tumblr, comicfury, often post projects on itchio, i can be spotted on bluesky, and that's about it! deleted my art instagram and my account on whatever happened to twitter a long time ago. i'm mostly reachable via my pro email: okenkibox[at]gmail.com. i reply to comments on tumblr's post also if you have questions on a specific post if asks are closed! other places i very often miss messages! you can support me on patreon and have access to secret sketchbook monthly! i have over 50 available now! you can pledge a month, get them all and dip, i'm fine with that. other than that i very often have commissions on kofi, they are usually very cheap because they're very basic! :) thank you!! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ have a nice day!

PS! i have a FAQ and contact pages, i don’t know if you can access them on mobile/the app, so to sum it up:

please do not repost/reupload my work, especially not without credit, i’d appreciate if you could ask first. for personal use (icon, banner, printing for personal scrapbooking, .. anything you make no profit with) is ok! if applicable (icon, banner) please do credit and link back to either my blog or my carrd.

my art is never oriented to mean harm to anyone. please keep in mind english is not a language i’m very good with, i might make mistake or misunderstand, but it’s never malicious or vicious. thank you.

feeling blue...

closer to what i had in mind! got a bit crazy with the blue for the greater good! ο(=•ω＜=)ρ⌒☆

[goth-boyfriends]

i messed up the "overexposed flash" effect i was going for but! i like it! maybe next time haha

last few months kicked my butt, but i'm still making progress on the webcomic!

it is still updating every 3 days on comicfury and is scheduled to do so until may with chapter 50 and i'm currently drawing chapter 58! if everything goes according to how i scheduled it, by may i will be able to have enough buffer for the comic to run until 2026!

I stack on buffer so i can spend a few month working on a long one shot comic i hope to complete this year. it's a little hard to organize and schedule everything, especially with life and unexpected stuff coming up but i have good hopes for this!

i will also finally have more time to make more side art for the comic, that are (hopefully) not spoiler so i can share more... i keep neglecting this blog (sorry!) but i will try to be a bit more??? active? haha

if there are things you'd like to see more on this blog about gothboyfriends, feel free to ask here or on comicfury (you can leave comment as a guest, not account needed!)

wishing you the best! stay warm! kenki

[goth-boyfriends]

it made sense in my head i swear...!

[goth-boyfriends]

i just finished and scheduled part 5 of goth boyfriends! ; _ ; i did the last 8 chapters on a very short timeframe in the last few months… i started part 5 early 2023 haha, but then i kept getting sick and all that, but now i feel like maybe for a while i can work steadily so i will try my best!

Those are the last 9 chapters of part 5 in this pic! whoah! (i put the anniversary illustration on top to avoid spoiling, but all the rest are comics pages and cover! for those who discover it, each chapter is 7 pages!

i tried to put it with part 4, but it was a tad too much for the sleeve! : ( a little surprised as part 1 to 3 are in one, but i used printer paper (80 g/m² at best) which was much more slim! i upgraded to 200 g/m² but 'downgraded' to 160(ish) g/m² halfway because it was more than enough. thinking of trying 120 g/m² so i can carry more paper around. i have to test if it fits all mediums i want to use!

so new sleeve for part V it is! i don't think i can cram many parts in one sleeve anymore now that i use bulkier paper! I spend a lot of time (re) organizing the pages i have around this project! it really feel like such a workout now! ; _ ;

starting to take space on the bookshelf! i'm both proud and a little scared about the space as it's very small here. i had to move a lot of things around to possibly get a new bookshelf in the next few months if i can afford it!

So, until my may 2025 (it feels surreal to write this!) there will be a new page every 3 days if i scheduled correctly! (might be a day more or less in-between chapters because i suck at maths! ; _ ;)

me? i will be starting part 6 soon! hoping to find a good pace, and stay diligent to not be surprised by sickness or other life troubles too unexpectedly.

ganbatte everyone! : p

xoxo, ken

goth boyfriends is still uploading we're on chapter 38

we are far from the end i think i just had this sentences in mind i dont even know if its that relevant to anything it might just sound ominous lol

incroyable je réalise pas vraiment, je sais que les chapitres sont courts mais quand même, envers et contre tout, on est la...

[goth-boyfriends]

15th of August 2021... I finally get brave and upload goth boyfriend on comicfury...!

3 years ago! Already?! whoah!!

Sorry for the drawing looking a little wonky, I wanted to make it like some kind of a montage, with each group being independent of one another, like, not even on the same perspective/scale, but fell half asleep as i drew and mixed every idea and put them on a plane that kinda match foreground/background etc... and so it just looks weird as a full drawing, but i still like it and i'm still mega sleepy so that's what we'll get this time lol!

Thank you to everyone who's reading my webcomic so far and everyone who gave it a try or will give it a try! again the chapters are very small (7 pages including the cover) so don't feel scared to catch up even if you see it's chapter 38 or smth i forgot where we're at! ; _ ;

I revamped the website a bit with a cast page and some kind of wiki, feel free to ask questions if you need more clarifications or anything! you can also post/ask as a guest on comicfury, you don't need an account, even though i recommand it, if you make comics or not! it's a fun place and there is a lot of comics to read! : )

[goth-boyfriends]

what?! i drew backgrounds in this part?!! no way... you can come read goth boyfriends on comicfury for free... : o

[goth-boyfriends]

I never think about posting updates... 😔 But the comic is still updating, one page every 3 days, scheduled until the end of september!

we're on chapter 35! dont be discouraged to catch up! each chapter is 7 pages (including cover, so 6 pages really)

i have also been working on chapter summaries! a line or two about what's going on...!

i have also finally learned about how to make additional pages so, also, soon, a cast page (on comicfury)

i am glad i could work on this comic for so long, thank you for being patient with me, i will keep going! 💪
