What’s Up With the Digital Strips Comic?

Some of you may be wondering why I haven’t updated the Digital Strips comic in a while. The thing is I’ve been working on something new. I was so inspired by what Scott Kurtz and Chris Straub are doing with Blamimation that I decided to try something similar for our podcast. Wouldn’t it be great to see what we’re talking about as we talk about it? I’m still putting it together, but I should have something to show very soon. We’ll see if this works or not soon enough, but hang tight. At the very least, it should be interesting.

PC Weenies Gets Animated

It seems as though there’s an animation craze going on in the webcomic world. Krishna’s techno riff comic, PC Weenies, has just dipped it’s toe into the waters of animated shorts with a recent update. The short animates the most recent single panel comic up on the site. It’s a great start, we’ll see where else it might lead to. I really like what he did with the visual, but some audio would be nice too, even if it was just music and sound effect here and there. Looks great though!
