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.

More on Diamond and site statistics… I see the last paragraph in this article says that Diamond isn’t the bad guy and comic sales were up 1.5% in 2008. I realize that everyone needs to eat but good comics are more widely varied than what will meet an arbitrary sales threshold. Just sayin’. And then [...]

This post is about 12 hours late and I’m sorry about that. I could regale you with tales of computer problems, other commitments and blah blah blah. Really, you’d be asking “Why doesn’t he just get to the point?” Done! Stop the presses. Pause, ponder and wallow for a minute in your thoughts. Not everyone [...]

I had some computer issues over the weekend but still managed to catch some interesting bits… Project Fanboy talks about legal stuff for comics. And Wil Wheaton talks about some self publishing resources. Having little icon pictures to identify different topics on our sites is a nice visual hook to catch the reader’s attention. I’m [...]

Reviews, contests, interviews, milestones and more… Applegeeks hits 500 strips. Wow. Marooned publishes Ashcan #1. You can’t blame me if you miss out on this Eyeskream contest. There are pretty open guidelines, a ton of prizes and a free year’s worth of adspace on the site. All you have to do is tell the origin [...]

Here’s more comic stuff that caught my eye… Let’s see, Ugly Hill is ending soon, Casey and Scotty will soon return to a regular posting schedule and you will now be able to get Marooned minicomics, along with some hints about potentially going to a graphic novel format. After you check out the Trugglemat, here’s [...]

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. Let’s not forget Sean Taylor’s interview or Luke Surl’s review. There’s more from Mark Waid on the Incredibles comic and some sample pages [...]

I am growing ever more impressed by the sheer magnitude of projects and things going on that we can enjoy and take advantage of… The Webcomic Overlook reviews Thingpart, Kris Straub offers us a peek into changes in Starslip Crisis and the Powerpuff Girls turns ten. MPD57 looks over the December Zuda competition and Ramon [...]

Here we go with some things I found provoking: I asked and it was provided! Casey & Scotty animated. At long last. That’s great stuff for just taking an hour to put it together. Courtesy of Comixtalk, we also know Marvelous Patric has a new comic titled Picture Imperfect. It’s got a web-ma self rating [...]
