Weekly Webcomic Round-Up

Good morning,

To start things off, I thought I'd take a moment to mention that HIGH MOON, Act III begins tomorrow night - and boy - is it a doozy! Be sure to check it out tomorrow night at sundown!

And now for the rest of the news:

• If you are in the New York area tomorrow night, be sure to join fellow webkomikers, Molly Crabapple, Kevin Colden, and Neil Kleid for Comic Book Club - Live!
  
  
• Foolstrip took a moment to present a Zuda Comics Roubtable. Got read what the creators of Supertron, Pray for Death, High Moon, and Road had to say about the Zuda experience!
  
  
• The Webcomic Promotion Guide is a brand new site for your webcomic promotional needs. It's got some great bits about social networking, building communities, and promotion. So, if you are looking for a way to spruce up your marketing skills, go give it a read.
  
  
• While it has nothing to do with webcomics, in particular, ComicDorksCast, has a nice little piece about the refound popularity of Westerns. It's well-worth the read.
  
  
• Comic Fencing is looking for comics to review - so check out the site and send in yours!
  
  
• High Moon gets a Facebook page! And a listing on StumbleUpon.
  
  
• The Midnight Cartooner takes a look at the series Under Review. Go read what he thought of the printed edition of the webcomic.

So, that's it for now ...

Weekly Webcomics Round-Up

Good morning,

Steve, Scott, and I have wrapped up the latest installment of HIGH MOON, which is scheduled to hit Zuda on Tuesday! In the meantime, I thought we'd get you caught up with some interesting webcomic news that circulating around the Internet.

• If you haven't check out the recent Zuda news from the New York Comic Con, you missed some real humdingers! Not only that, but the Zuda series, Pray For Death, now has a blog! And Bayou's Jeremy Love gets himself interviewed over that Pulp Secret (around the 6:23 mark).
  
  
• The awesome Brad Guigar of Evil Inc, Courting Disaster, and Phables, has added a wicked neat feature to one of his comics thanks to Dumbrella's Phillip Karlsson. Kudos Brad and Phillip! Brad is also one of the co-authors of the book, HOW TO MAKE WEBCOMICS (which is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) and is one of the co-pundits/podcasters behind WEBCOMICS WEEKLY.
  
  
• Danielle Corsetto of Girls With Slingshots repute, along with her girl Friday, Wren, have set up set up a survey on merchandise. Head over to the link and tell her you want sort of cool plushies, coffee mugs, and shot glasses you'd like to see.
  
  
• The Gigcast interviews the crazy madmen behind Ink Tank!
  
  
• And finally, Kevin Colden's Fishtown begins it's fifth and final chapter! Read it now on Act-I-Vate!

In the next day or so, I'll either be talking about some High Moon "Deleted Scenes" or "Character Voice". See you then!

Weekend Webcomics Round-Up Rodeo

Huzzah, the weekend is here. And, while we usually use this space to talk about all the keen stuff going on with HIGH MOON, I thought I'd take a minute to spotlight some other fantastic webcomics, so here goes:

• Over on the Twin Comics Blog, Bobby Timony, co-creator of THE NIGHT OWLS, talks about how he letters his Zuda strip. It's a great tutorial.
  
  
• Molly Crabapple and John Leavitt have just completed the first act of BACKSTAGE over on Act-I-Vate. Steve and I totally dig on Molly's work and you should too! To get caught up on all of the BACKSTAGE-y goodness, head over here to read the archive.
  
  
• Another talented Act-I-Vater, Kevin Colden, creator of FISHTOWN, has made his mark on Zuda with a very twisted strip called STRANGLE/SWITCH. Kevin's work on this project has been called reminiscent of Paul Pope's. So, go check it out!
  
  
• IN HIS LIKENESS creator spends some time talking about his comedic influences over here. First on the agenda: Jim Henson!
  
  
• And starting Friday, Warren Ellis' wicked-slick webcomic series, FREAK ANGELS, goes live! Be there!
