Join Jake Jacobs and Kurt Brugel for Episode 197 of our weekly livestream. We are continuing the decades-long journey of bringing Turbo Pit-fighter to print. Originally conceived in 1999, this post-apocalyptic indie comic is being finished live every Sunday morning.

In today’s session:

DOOM Magazine #1: Progressing on the End of the World Anthology.

The Secret Life of the Duke: Working through the pencils and inks for this 11-page story.

Turbo Pit-fighter Issue #1: Closing in on the final pages.

Watch the unfiltered creative process as Jake handles writing, pencils, and layout while Kurt executes inks and hand-lettering. This is underground indie grit meets philosophical sci-fi, built in public to show that persistence beats perfection.

About the Creators:
Jake Jacobs is the writer and penciler focused on production design and the Doommags Substack.
Kurt Brugel is the inker, hand-letterer, and producer behind the CROM Anthology and the Indie Creator Exchange.

Hang out in the chat, ask questions about the process, and watch a comic book come to life in real time.

And be sure to check out the after-show on Jake’s Doommags Substack for extended thoughts and production notes.
