Checking In with FAUB's John Fortman


Department: Interviews

Lovers of beautiful black-and-white art and urban fantasy should know of the unique treasure nestled away at FALLEN ANGELS USED BOOKS gorgeous pencil artwork with a sure sense of proportion and the human shape, used to tell a story of a waif with wings and a Used Book Store owner, among many other fascinating characters. FAUB started in June 2003 and has already gathered a large following. John Fortman, the author, gave us a very thorough and revealing interview.

Why Do Online Comics by Iain Hamp


How The Awesome Power of The Webcomics can help Print Comics Creators?

Recently, I have been thinking a lot about how the world of print comics and the world of webcomics interact with one another (or, as is more often the case, fail to interact with one another). I suspect that there are a variety of reasons for those who do print comics to have not embraced webcomics (beyond the loopy evil webcomics zealot in me who wants to think, "HA! They feel threatened by the awesome power of The Internet!").

Newbie comics are both cursed and blessed by their, well... newness. Spinoffs like Scary Go Round and Lizard taken aside, most webcomics are the author's first steps onto a new shore. Some creators will spend years, even decades developing their creative abilities before jumping onto the Web. Others may be borne of the online community, having yet to earn their artistic "sea legs". Whatever the basis of a webcomicker (and, by extension, their webcomic), we're all evolving, and it's usually most evident in the beginning.

Another Installment of the Webcomic Jam!


The second week of the second installment of the Comixpedia Weekly Webcomic Jam. This one is fom RPin and he takes the tale of condiment heroes and villians to new heights before throwing in a wrenching twist!

Which store is best now?


I haven't had a store on my page for a while now (well, it's sort of been on hiatus altogether, really but...)
Previously, I was using CafePress, but then they started charging for keeping the store open, and I wasn't selling enough to justify that, so I shut it down.
Now that I'm getting Commander Kitty back in gear, I'm wondering if CafePress is still the most popular store or if there are others like 99dogs.com or Zazzle.com that are better.
What are your experiences?
