In any case, there’s arguably too much this week: Webcomic Finds reviews Jovian Luck, the Webcomic Asylum interviews Hatpire and Legend rates Penny Arcade.

Being full of opinionated and biased outlook, I do hereby officiously and loudly proclaim: Panel Patter reviews Cowboy Wally, David Gallaher is interviewed and Erica Friedman sounds off about objectivity in reviews.

MPD57 brings us a snapshot of each [...]
