Artwork
This page consists of artwork that has been produced for the comic strip throughout its run. Currently, the only artwork presented here is for the modern 2018-2022 comic, but eventually, artwork from the "Classic" period (pre-2016) will be archived here.

2016 Reveal
This was the drawing that revealed the redesign of the main cast in 2016. This coincides with the Wausau and Jackson Adventures announcement, and these designs would be tweaked and modernized for the comic strip as it is known today.
2016 Reveal 2
An alternate drawing of the designs used in Wausau and Jackson Adventures.
Logo
The official logo for the series, as seen in Adventures and the 2018-2022 comic strip.
Wausau 2016 Artwork
A drawing of Wausau used to promote Wausau and Jackson Adventures.
Jackson 2016 Artwork
A drawing of Jackson taken directly from Wausau and Jackson Adventures.
2016 Icon
The icon used when publishing Wausau and Jackson Adventures in 2016.
Nintendo Switch
Jackson draws on a light switch to pretend that he has a Nintendo Switch. This was drawn days before the actual console's release in 2017.
Jackson's Twitter Icon (2017)
Did you know Jackson used to have his own Twitter (now called X) account? Yep, and this was the icon he used in 2017. The account is since defunct, however.
Katie
On Twitter (now called X), Jackson posted an appreciation message about his best friend, Katie. This is the drawing that accompanied that post.
Valentine's Day
Jackson posted on Twitter (now X) yet again with his best friend Katie to celebrate Valentine's Day in 2018. This is the drawing that accompanied that post. This drawing predates the 2018 series' launch by about 6 months.
1930's Jackson
As an experiment, the cartoonist drew Jackson as a 1930's rubberhose-style character. This design was never used, however.
2018 Icon
This is the icon that was used when the 2018 comic strip launched in August of 2018.
How the Wausau Stole Christmas!
Wausau and Jackson decided to dress up as the Grinch and Max (from How the Grinch Stole Christmas!) to celebrate Christmas in 2018.
Uekawa-Style Jackson
As another experiment, the cartoonist drew Jackson and colored him based on SEGA artist Yuji Uekawa's shading style. This coloring style was only ever used in a comic strip one time, that being the first panel of comic #61 "Grinding."
Steve and Steve Logo
The logo used for the 2019 April Fool's comic (#33) "Steveday."
2019 Banner
This is an updated banner used to advertise the comic strip (hence the "New Comics Every Monday!" tagline) in the year 2019.
Taking a Break
The cartoonist took a break for a month in January 2020 from drawing the comic strip, so this image is what was released instead.
2021 Banner
To advertise the comic strip in 2021, this new banner was created with the most up-to-date designs for the characters.
2021 Tapas Book Cover
Tapas.io added a requirement that comic strips need a book cover-style photo to advertise comics on their site, so this was created to meet that requirement.
2021 Icon
This is the icon that was added for the comic strip in 2021 and is still used to represent the comic strip today.
Full 2021 Artwork
This is the full artwork that the 2021 banner, icon, and cover are based on.
