I’ll be the first one to admit I don’t know a thing about comics, especially the ones on that invention created from tubes. I have a vague idea of how of the business behind it though and I had the joy to give a well received panel about that at ConnectiCon last year. None of [...]
Digital Strips : Show 119 [20.1 MB] We’ve returned to Manga. This time we have Brigid live for the very first time on the show. I’m always amazed at how much more the staff knows then me about what we’re reviewing and this was no exception. For this show we present to you a strip [...]
For the most part, webcomics are a 19th-century idea presented in a 21st-century medium. Readers of The Yellow Kid, back in horse-and-buggy days, saw the strip as lines and areas of color on newsprint. Readers of The Perry Bible Fellowship have an almost identical experience, except the lines are on a screen and they click [...]

The typical view of webcomics, by those that even know what they are, is of a story-telling style geared mostly towards the 18-34 year-old demographic. Look at some of our best examples and you’d be hard-pressed to argue. But there is actually a fair number of all-ages fare out there, you just have to know [...]
Comics creator Lea Hernandez has put her graphic novel Cathedral Child, book 1 of the Texas Steampunk trilogy, on the web for free.

Published in News
The gaming strip, F@NB0Y$, recently ran some guest strips, most of which were the usual fare; take the established characters and give them a character beat to follow or make fun of video game X.
