3	Ralph Hayes, Jr. is a writer and artist with a predilection for {{Funny Animal}}s, but who works in a number of genres within the UsefulNotes/FurryFandom. He is also known for his strong and potentially controversial political opinions, although his actual strips display a varying amount of overt preachiness.

5	As of late 2012, he has switched to a business model where a particular strip gets an update only when he receives enough monetary donations. In 2014 he made a Patreon account and the rate of updates has increased.

7	He is also a [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic brony]] and has [[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/RealityCheck an account]] at Platform/FimfictionDotNet. As of January 3, 2016, he has abandoned Fimfiction and moved his stories over to his [[http://archiveofourown.org/users/RHJunior AO3]] and [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/2991318/RHJunior FanFiction]] accounts.

9	Sadly, March of 2024 saw this... interesting... creator receiving a surprise bill from his previous web host that he couldn't afford. [[https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10817583/ Leading him to turn off the servers]] and moving all of his work to [[https://globalcomix.com/a/rhjunior-productions GlobalComix.]] Thus, all external links to his various comics are now outdated. He also posts to his [[https://www.furaffinity.net/user/rhjunior/ Fur Affinity page]] and [[https://www.deviantart.com/rhjunior Deviant Art page]], and maintains a [[https://www.patreon.com/rhjunior/posts Patreon]] account.

40	!! Tropes common to works by Ralph Hayes Jr.:
41
42	* ArtEvolution: Going from the early days of ''Webcomic/NipAndTuck'' to the more recent strips shows a significant change in art style, to say nothing of looking at the earlier days of his other strips. Sadly, the exigencies of real life keep him from producing the most detailed version of his artwork on anything like a regular basis.
43	* AuthorTract: Ralph has extremely strong Conservative Christian views, and is not shy about [[WriterOnBoard using his comics to loudly broadcast his views and his certainty in their correctness]]. He usually manages to avoid AuthorFilibuster territory, and as he's aged has managed to focus more on telling stories rather than just hammering about his beliefs, but it can be problematic.
44	* CantTakeCriticism: The reason he left Fimfiction.
45	* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Among the strips that didn't continue long enough to get some Wiki Love were Fellowship of Heroes (a deconstruction of the superhero genre), Hard Onions (an AuthorTract), Undefined (a deconstruction of comic strips), The West Pole (FunnyAnimals) and Witch Hunter (a Christian take on the monster-hunter genre). Some fans hope to eventually see more in these strips (especially Fellowship of Heroes), but there are only so many hours in a day.
46	* WriterOnBoard: He still manages to keep it funny, though -- most of the time.
