Do you Ship internationally?
Can I meet you?
But who is Tab?
When do you update?
I update twice a week on Monday and Wednesday, but three times a week over on Patreon!
What do you use to draw the comics?
I started off drawing Khaos in flash over a pencil sketch, then moved on to Photoshop, then finally Manga studio using a wacom tablet. After the success of the Khaos Komix kickstarter I bought a Cintiq screen, which I then used for all of Shades of A and Minority Monsters. Since starting Gay buttlers I’ve gone back to inking traditionally on A3 card which makes beautiful, beautiful pages.
Can I commission you?
You sure can! From smutty character art to colour portraits- check out my commission info here.
I live outside of England, can I buy in your store?
Yep! I ship to all over the world via airmail! International orders should take no more than 2 weeks to arrive and shipping is calculated automatically by the checkout. Shipping includes the amazing Tab insurance- if your order gets lost in the post, I’ll refund you the money or ship you out a new item.
Can I meet you?
I love meeting people! I attend a bunch of events all over the UK, and even make it out to Norway, Ireland and the USA sometimes. Check out my convention schedule here.
But who is Tab?
My full name is Mr Tab Artemis Kimpton, which is not short for anything but could stand for ‘totally awesome bloke’ I guess.
I’m a full time costume maker and comic writer. You can find my costume stuff at www.khaoskostumes.com.
I live in Manchester (England), I was born in 1990 and I write comics because I feel that if you’re fed up of stereotypes being terrible in media you should start writing your own media. I started putting comics on the internet in 2006 and haven’t stopped since.
Please feel free to drop me an email, I appreciate your thoughts on my comics as well as fan art, fan fic and fan anything! Hearing from you brightens day.

HAhahahahaha! What a wonderful way to sum up “50 Shades”.
Good luck in the new endevour, Tab. It’s always a pleasure to watch you work.
LMAO, I got about as far as the bottom left panel before I had to stop. Wait, no, that’s just how I got even before the tampon sex and couldn’t go on much farther after that. 50 shades of bullshit is fucked up, omfg.
I got as far as the drunk undressing and the toothbrush… Eeee this site is going to he awesome :D
Okay, this really sums it up! I am really looking forward to this story. This is gonna be soo awesome! /)^3^(\
Well…..50 Shades of Grey WAS a crappy twilight fanfic turned into a “light bdsm” series by someone who knew nothing about the kink world…..
Anywhooo SUPER FREAKIN EXCITED to read new comic ^_^
GO TAB GO!
Haha, I haven’t read 50 shades of grey. I planed to just out of curiosity and because I thought it might get a better impression SM to the general public but than I heard how bad it was plot- and character-wise all over the place and refused…seems like this was the right thing to do :D I’d rahter read anything you have to say about genders, sex and sexuality
I downloaded the ‘trial’ ebook of 50 Shades. I don’t think I made it half way through that before the awful writing made me delete it from my kindle = / Now I see what I missed out on! PAYING for it and then deleting it without finishing =p
Does anyone know how long this comic is going to be?
To add some input, there are actually Masters and slaves that have contracts, agree to dietary restrictions and whatnot. For the most part that’s highly relationship dynamic dependent. Consensual non-consent is also a thing. *shrug* My $ .02.
Oh, there definitely are. But that’s for folks who are deep in the scene, and who hopefully really know what they’re doing. From what I understand of 50 shades, the main character is a complete novice, and resents many elements of their dynamic. She had no idea what she was getting into when she moved in with this guy, and I personally feel like there should be a lot of steps between “no desire for kinky sex or power exchange” to “diet control and consensual nonconsent”
Yep, and that’s fine. But in the book it’s definitely something Ana ISN’T interested in but he tries to control anyway.
This part is my opinion- but I feel that diet control is creepy unless it’s something that the slave pushes for in an effort to improve themselves. But that’s my slant on it, if people do it and are happy, props to them and I hope it brings them joy.
Well, since it’s a book, it’d be okay to have that dynamic where Ana doesn’t want the <> and he’s still trying to have it, then he’s seen as the idiot he is or something. The worst problem is that the book is badly written, not the misrepresentation of the “ideal” BDSM master. And it really is a shame that it’s so badly written, it could have been interesting to do a mainstream book about BDSM like that.
Also, I couldn’t bring myself to read the next two books, so that’s just my opinion about the first one.
Being a book isn’t an excuse. It exposes people to a form of kink that is not in any way safe or risk aware (depending on whether you use SSC or RACK). The contract the “Master” made the girl sign wasn’t at ALL negotiated. There was no negotiation anywhere. It was abuse from start to finish, not D/s. And then people who are new to the BDSM world start going to kink events without even an inkling of consent and play negotiations. It’s dangerous for them, it’s dangerous for people they play with, it’s dangerous for the community as a whole. 50 Shades of Grey shouldn’t be excused for being a book, because it’s horrific portrayal of BDSM reflects poorly on the community and has serious negative real world effects.
Oh yeah, the books are frakin’ terrible. Atrocious writing that makes a lot of the kinky people I know shudder because NONE OF IT IS HEALTHY. Rawr.
Thanks for that very giggle-worthy synopsis of 50 Shades. A friend (friend?!) sent me a copy of the trilogy via email. I now know that not reading it is a good decision.
I’ll stick with your version for a bit to see if I like it. I’m not gay or in any way ‘deviant’ (sorry, probably wrong choice of word) but I enjoyed Khaos despite having no personal interest in the subjects covered.
I live a lifestyle that 50 Shades is *supposed* to express and I can’t bring myself to read it. I just… I don’t know how someone could see it as serious literature and whoever wrote it had to have been in cahoots with Stephanie Meyer cause no 2 people can write that terribly on the same “general topic”.
Thanks for saving me money on Fifty Shades of Grey. Sure that comic was MUCH better!
My process in reading Fifty Shades:
“Oh, so this is the book everyone’s been talking about. Why not?…Ten bucks says this was based on a Twilight fanfic….So…is this about BDSM or not?…Yep, there it is, OK, not reading it anymore.”
A few days later…
“Eh, eh, eh, no no–ugh, fine, I’ll go back to it….Holy shit this is creepy…creepier…creepy…Is it wrong that the sex scenes are turning me on?…I’m officially done with it after this scene…and this one…and this one…stop it stop it, now I’m putting it down forever.”
(For the record, I was reading it at Barnes and Noble over the course of a few days, I never actually bought a copy.)

You want funny, read Fifty Shames of Earl Grey. I died.
Just saw this now, and it is hilarious.
I thought it was Amber reading it…and not Tab. Oops…
Thanks for sharing such a nice thought, post is pleasant, thats why i have read it completely
Hey,
I’ve been a long-time fan and been reading for roughly a decade at this point. Thanks for great content.
I have been thinking of starting a web comic of my own and was wondering if I could get any advice you had on web domains and how best to go about hosting a web comic?
Thanks,
Theo
