I’m sure you’re all awash in ComicCon and Moon Landing anniversary news which all the cool sites are covering nicely. Here, we’ll stick to a week and a half’s worth of comic meat and potatoes… I Am Legend recaps their webcomic reviews and Pigs of the Industry covers Metropolitan Siege (and so does MPD57), The [...]

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 [...]

A little freelancing, some pro talk and we end on a daydream… Looking to work professionally in the freelance art world? Here are some solid tips for us at Yaytime. I liked this quote from the article “Being a professional is a state of mind.” And sometimes being a pro means we need to ask [...]

Is it just me or is it getting harder to track all the interesting comic news? Webcomics Critique told us about A Fine Example and Shattered Myth. MPD57 reviewed Cubicles while Pigs Of The Industry looked at Gone Zombie and Lily of the Valley. And the Star Chamber’s prejudging of this month’s Zuda entries is [...]

Short but meaty, I hope. I read this article that pointed out some useful things about how our comics draw in readers. As a result, I’m thinking that useful thing would be to have multiple fast hooks and a couple of slow hooks for our online comics. This was an interesting post by Kleefeld. It’s [...]

A little less to gawk at this week, but fun nonetheless. Tangents reviews Instant Classic and This Week in Webcomics checks out SuperFogeys. Meanwhile, the Floating Lightbulb points us toward Werewolf and Firefly. Newsarama shows us two books for children by comic book folks. Take a look at this interview of Close To Home artist [...]

A few how-to picks for today… Especially for those who hand letter, it’s very clear just how different writing can be. How big do you make your capitals compared to your lowercase letters and how fancy you choose to make it. It shouldn’t really have surprised me that there is almost endless variation in letter [...]

Woah. Lots going on. I’ve debated going to a semi-daily update but sometimes noticing what the longer trends are provides more practical use. 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. Art in Sequence looks closely at four popular [...]

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 [...]

No time for fancy words today because there are a million things to see. On to the news: The Kurgan in Highlander is one of the better villains in movieland. I wonder how this comic based on him will fare? We already know how this comic turned out, but You’ll Have That has posted it’s [...]
