Deep within the Jungle Oasis, Jeff is in his element, admiring a school of Vienna Sausage Splishes, while Ellie is delighted by a murmuration of Monocular Fire-Flitters.

Just where on Planet X is the Jungle Oasis, you ask? Well, it’s in the middle of the Tranquility Crater Valley, named for the Sea of Tranquility where men from the planet Earth first stepped foot on the Moon.
Work on the graphic novel continues. I just completed what I think is a pretty awesome depiction of the Jungle Oasis. I’m not able to show you the whole thing, but here’s a little tiny bit…
Here’s a little sketch of the Jungle Oasis on Planet X where Jeff and Muffin make their homes. It looks different here than what you’ve seen in the comics as I’ve been imagining it being more of a coral reef kind of place lately, with several levels and nooks and crannies. Maybe we’ll see it show up like this in the future!

Jason Frazer, creator of the comic Twisted Musings, and I had us a little fan art swap. I drew his character Billy from his newest comic of the same name that starts June 11, and in exchange he sent me this awesome depiction of the Planet X cast so far. This has everything! The Jungle Oasis, Jeff’s house, Balloon Boy…and Jeff, Ellie, and Muffin, who all look awfully calm in the presence of Mr. Wallowmuck. So go check out Jason’s wonderful comic Twisted Musings while waiting for his new strip, Billy, to begin.
