Updates currently happen every Friday and every other Monday, visit this post for more scheduling information.
Support me on Patreon and read pages ahead of everyone else for as little as $1 a month. Have you heard about my Private art lessons?
Wasn’t sure when I was gonna reveal this but I’m getting kind of sick of this comic and want to end it and move on so there’s a bunch of lore dumps we need to get through first
The Roommate From Hell currently updates one page every Friday, but surprise updates can also happen on Mondays and/or Wednesdays.
I’ll be having treatment for thyroid cancer some time around March 2024 so updates may be unreliable for a month after that.
A print edition is coming to Kickstarter one of these days. It will contain all of Part 1 as well as at least one exclusive bonus scene. Pretty much everything is ready to go, I just need to find the spoons to put the campaign together.

That got dark fast.
I think this is the first time we have seen demons do hardcore evil stuff. Orev verbally said demons do bad stuff, the arson was just a one panel flashback, and the Tapas pages were deliberately toned down by Orev.
That demon had a good plan for generating negative emotions but I assume they didn’t know that their target’s host was also possessed.
Granted this is ye olden times in ye oldy USA so the demon probably didn’t know that their (presumably) female target had a (presumably) female lover.
I assume that tormenting one person repeatedly but lightly would have a bigger long term payoff feeding wise, but going for short term and more extreme pain and then just getting a new target is pretty evil and short sighted so it works well for demons. Like the difference between letting a horse rest vs working it to death and then just buying a new one.
I assume one spirit can’t eat emotions from a human that is possessed. Has it been stated that demons only eat negative emotions but angels only eat positive emotions or did I Mandala myself into that?
The other big news is that the comics is ending. NOOOO! Was not expecting that. But I do appreciate a comic having a dedicated ending that can be worked towards.
I always love the Sluggy Freelancer guy. ‘Yea my legit epic story has been going on for a while. Time to wrap up all my threads and end this.’ And start to end it he did. Granted its been over 10 years but whatever.
And now for a complement that sounds like an insult but ain’t. Roommate is really good and will be hard to top.
I’ll be sad to see this comic end but I’ll be excited to read y’all’s future comics.
so….if i interpret the pictures right, some demon crated an illusion of her having hanged herself which drove her lover to suicide?
I think the lover is the one hanging.
Ending this comics? It barely started!
Yeah but my future work will be way better I promise! And I only have so much spare time to work on comics right now
