So… Babbage was the Regency Lars and the Real Girl.

Thank you very, very much!! I’m always chuffed to get a great comment. Its all for kicks and most uneconomical but I enjoy drawing them as much I hope as people enjoy reading them. More comics are on the way!

As a middle-aged economist and businessman, what am I doing writing a comment on this site? Well, my son introduced me to graphic novels and strips ( and also ‘Steampunk’ )and I think Lovelace and Babbage is brilliant – mature, witty and historically literate. Used as a vehicle for modern satire, these characters could be huge – entertaining but also acting as an entry point for all those wonderful larger-than-life personalities that led the industrial revolution. I’m not an artist so can’t comment on the style, but it is simple and easy to follow. However, for me, it is always the writing that is the key, and it is excellent. Create more, lots more.

I saw the link to your site in a post to Word of the Day and I was pleasantly surprized. I love it! The funniest line was the one about shooting some bankers to keep confidence up. The scrolling rather than clicking is perfect. Thanks. Keep it up. -Dan

Madam, this is exceptional. Beautiful art style — love the expressiveness and spontaneity of your line work, and, as others have already commented, your ability to pack a huge conceptu7al punch into a single gesture…

And it’s clever and funny.

Ada Lovelace (and, to a lesser extent, Babbage), have long been fascinations for me — but I never thought that I’d see them together in one of my favorite artforms. I’ll be forcing all my students to read this.

Thanks so much — and please keep them coming.

If Wellington instead of Peel had invented the police, would they be called Noseys instead of Bobbies?

This comic has got to be the greatest comic idea I have ever seen. I love your art style and sense of humour.

thanks for the history lesson. honestly i would agree with most people here that i love your drawings style. very similar to mine where its effective yet scratchy and obscure yet representational. i love the comic so far and i hope you keep it up. nothing really bothering me yet but ill tell you if there is. thank you.
