Well, here it is Saturday morning and the Friday news is fashionably late…
♦ Webcomic Overlook went Next Gen gah gah while reviewing Moon Town. Lefty Films had a decent rundown on Zuda’s new batch of comics and Webcomics Critique reviewed the five robot comic Floodmud.
♦ Read About Comics was meh about Missile Mouse and Storming The Tower praised an Unshelved guest comic from Spacetrawler. Optical Sloth covered
♦ I’d like to find a practical use for the Levy Flight theory of web browsing. My hangup is finding a way to prolong a visitor’s presence on a comic site. Is that best done by having a wide swath of related content for visitors to explore or by setting a Hansel and Gretel style trail set up for visitors to follow to find surprises? Comics, by virtue of being eye scannable media, are not well suited to holding visitors. I suppose that reinforces that we ought to keep finding ways to encourage visitors to return and regraze from the same web-spot.
♦ Remember the 25 expressions? Here’s a few more from Patrick Dean. Olaf continued the webcomic ideas with the concept of limiting a comic’s text to a set amount of characters ~ Twitter style.
♦ Sophia has a new comic out called The Lettuce Girl, on sale at MoCCa.
♦ Also, we have a comic couple getting engaged. Congrats! (Note: The comic below is not commentary on any of the content above. It’s just funny.)
