Bodega Genius
June 28th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? Bodega Genius by Ben Granoff and Dov Torbin struck me as a nice little three page minicomic. One of the first things you’ll notice is that the first page differs from the second two in the art style. That is explained as part of the comic itself but I found it [...]
67th Avenue
June 28th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? 67th Avenue by Jamie Sawatsky is a four panel newspaper style strip which started in 2005 in black and white up until about here. At that point, color and a newsprint sort of effect is added. That’s a neat visual hook – it is so different than most webcomics you see. [...]

Gordanian Algebra
June 24th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos (this is a repost) Getting to know Gordian Algebra by Austen Andrews is easy. The lead character has no name (easy to remember,) no neck and no memories (no backstory.) He (usually) is joined by a doctor named Singh and an unnamed nurse. There are a [...]
The Comic Power of Google
June 23rd, 2009 — Strip News
I have some other commitments on my time tonight, so I’ll just post all the news on Friday instead of breaking it up into two posts. However, I was just discussing the power of Google driving readers to our comics with another artist. I did an observation post in January on some Calvin&Hobbes cartoons and [...]
Robot 13 (#1)
June 21st, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? Today’s review is on a printed comic called Robot 13 (#1) by Thomas Hall and Daniel Bradford. Likely you’ve heard of it, read a review or maybe even own a copy, so I’ll not waste time dwelling too long on the obvious. I’ll be linking to some other sites which have [...]

I’m sure that you’ve all heard that Cap America is back from the dead, so here are a few things that are a little further under the radar… MPD57 reviewed Fallen Hunter, Kogoshi and The Urban Adventures of Melvin Blank. The Floating Lightbulb mentions Evil Diva and Scott McCloud recommends the work of Kris Dresen. [...]
Starslip Crisis
June 17th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? weekly webcomic reviews by Delos (this is a repost) Starslip Crisis by Kris Straub is about a decommissioned space warship that now serves as an art museum. That’s a pretty unique hook to catch your interest. It’s also hilarious. Starslip Crisis is a very popular comic and I can see why. [...]

Being ill this last weekend gave me a bit of free time to poke around and find some interesting novelties… Let’s start with Webcomic Overlook’s review of Raven’s Dojo which, if you read the comments, also nets us some Dragonball Z news from Sly Eagle. Morgan Wick reviews 8 Bit Theater and Pigs of the [...]
Unrehearsed Riot
June 14th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? Unrehearsed Riot by Ian Taylor is a gag comic served up mostly in black and white. The archives are still pretty short but you’ll have to admit it has a catchy name which describes the comic nicely. It goes beyond delivering one thing while promising something else. After all, when you [...]

The Front
June 10th, 2009 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn” weekly webcomic reviews by Delos (this is a repost) The look of The Front by Jerzy Drozd reminds me of Johnny Quest, in glorious black and white. Of course, the character eyes are a little more expressive and the textures are rendered much better. This is pretty noteworthy considering that it [...]
