There’s so many people out there putting out their creative projects on the interwebs it’s sometimes hard to find good stuff. I think I stumbled on a real good one yesterday. Astray3 is a Sci-fi/Fantasy webcomic that tells the story of Emily, the heroine and her sudden transport into a strange world of amazing creatures, [...]

My webcomic friend Chris Hallbeck was kind enough to send me the latest strip collection of his funny one-panel series The Book of Biff entitled Fresh Toast. The one panel strip is a surreal take on the main character, Biff, who makes some pretty unique observations about the world in which he lives.
Biff himself [...]
In the midst of all this Webcomic Idol craziness I’ve been really struggling with some of the writing of Marooned. I’m painfully aware that on the balance it has been a hit or miss thing on a strip-by-strip basis. I’ve had some good ones, but I’ve probably had more mediocre and even bad ones. (Pickle [...]

Via Drawn! I checked out this neat, brand new comic by Danny Zabal called Journey in the 6th Dimension. There’s only 3 pages up right now, but man are they beautiful! The story looks interesting, too. Danny was also nice enough to write up a quick review of Marooned and had nice things to say. [...]

I really enjoy checking out other webcomics, and I’ve actually been exposed to a few when they have posted a comment here on my site (so post a comment here if you want me to look at your comic!) If you have posted a comment here and I don’t mention you here, it doesn’t mean [...]
One comic I read on a daily basis is Monty by Jim Meddick. Monty has a very interesting history. It started out as a strip called “Robotman” and featured the main character – Robotman – in a suburban setting with a suburban family.
