Not having grown up with comics, I still don't see the magic in Wednesdays that some people do.

Tallying Up a Sheep's Accolades: An Interview with Adrian Ramos


Department: Interviews

If popularity were sheep, Adrian Ramos would be counting to infinity.

Count Your Sheep surfaced very recently on the sequential dream scene, only to leap over the hurdles of obscurity and into the greener grass on the popular side. Now part of Keenspot, Ramos' webcomic is winning awards and gaining new readers faster than you can knit one or pearl two.

In the ensuing interview, a non-sheepish David Wright lets Ramos spin a few yarns about CYS's amazing success, its beginnings, and its inspiration. Some Moo-ish wisdom is shared, and perhaps a tear or two shed in the process.

One thing is certain: Ramos' recountings will NOT put you to sleep.

I raise my hand and flap it in the air, quickly, but not too hard. I want to look a little eccentric, but not crazy – just weird enough that I might have something interesting to say.

The Otakon panel moderator takes interest in (or pity on) me. He passes me the microphone. I arch an eyebrow challengingly at the guests – cartoonists from Applegeeks, Little Gamers, Paradox Lost, Mac Hall, and the "other" Avalon – and say...

"Webcomics. 2009. Where are we?"

Flatwood switches to new URL

Sun, 08/22/2004 - 12:36 — xerexes

The creator of Flatwood let us know that the webcomic is moving from zph719s.keenspace.com to flatwood.keenspace.com. "It's just a jump from one Keenspace site to another, but the address should be a bit easier to remember. The Old Site will still update for a while until everyone gets used to the change and their layouts will stay identical."


Keenspot Move Gives Hope to Small Town?

Keloland.com has published a small article about Keenspot's recent move to its new headquarters in the Sioux Falls and how that has given hope to the small and sparsely-populated town of Cresbard.

Apparently the Keenspot move was also reported on air on August 12th by the local television morning show but the archive of that broadcast is no longer available.

The FAS Webcomic Conglomerate

Sun, 08/22/2004 - 08:52 — Boco

Hey I guess the best way to introduce myself is to introduce you to my world. My main comic is http://fas.keenspace.com and the newer and more laid back one is http://lilfas.keenspace.com.

I started my webcomic passion about 3-4 years ago and it's only grown since then. I read many other comics and support many of my friends comics... I've even babies a couple to get their sites off the ground and I've learned a lot and made many friends. I'm still expanding too this day. I hope to add webcomic reviews and/or interviews to my sites and who knows whats next...

I guess I just have the most fun making people laugh. I hope I can serve you the same.

Thanks for your time.
