Joe! Webcomic Review

What Did I Learn? Today’s comic under review is Joe! by Michelle Billingsley. The About page informs us that this comic is based on Joe, a wise cracking ten year old getting into trouble based on “imaginatively-exploited everyday shorelines,” which is pretty accurate up to the current comic of #112. However, the rest of the [...]

Okay, Okay

I do, believe it or not, have a review almost ready to post. In the meantime, I have been contacted by some folks for promotional items related to my other work but I thought some of you might be able to make use of what they offer. Here’s a pic they sent me… now imagine [...]

A week or so ago, I received a missive from Ucreate Comics, which is aiming to be a new Comic Book Developing company. From the look of things on their website, they seem like they are doing something Zuda-ish. Their official web-site is planned for launch on March 11th at www.ucreatecomics.com where members will have [...]

Erstwhile Fairy Tales

In order to be timely with this news at all, you need to just take a look at this: This is just one of Grimm’s fairy tales that Gina Biggs, Elle Skinner and Louisa Roy have adapted and illustrated for us. It’s called “A Tale with A Riddle.” It’s a story full of suspense about [...]

The Optimist Webcomic Review

What Did I Learn? Today’s comic under inspection is The Optimist by Tom Pappalardo. It is an interesting little gem of the gag strip variety. There is the occasional cuss word. There is some word play. There is some political observation. Some regular life silliness and some sarcasm. And there are podcasts and songs and [...]

Strange Quark webcomic review

What Did I Learn? Today’s review is on a short comic called Strange Quark by Dallin Durfee. It’s a gag a day comic revolving around the nerdy humor of college physics professors and their students.

Oni Logos

As you may or may not be aware, Oni Press recently redid their logo. (Old logo to the left, new of the right.) It was just something I read about somewhere online but the April 2012 copy in Inc. Magazine had a two page article on how the new logo came to be. At the [...]
