New Year's Resolutions for Webcomics


I saw the headline about the new year's resolution gigacast, and I thought that'd be a good one for us to talk about here. So how about it? Let's hear all those resolutions we'll try not to break by second week of January.

My resolutions? To make Fabricari into a better comic.

I want to finish the first graphic novel in 2006. I'm gonna attempt to color. It's not something I do well, but it seems to be well received.

And the big one is to improve my time management. I'll try to cut down on the missed days. And less time bullshitting online. Of course, that means mundane blogs and less drama.

Hopefully a year with less gimmicks and a better comic will yield in a more loyal readership.

This last year showed me just how many hard working artists there are out there trying to find an audience for their art. It was humbling. And it was inspiring. Thanks to all of you!

Oh, and one more. How about we get this forum hopping a little bit more. Xerexes and gang built a pretty cool joint here.

Comixpedia.org blog


Hello, I just made a new blog about Comixpedia.org. Right here http://webcomicen.blogspot.com/

Sorry for my pimping, but I need a chance to get an audience. Otherwise my blog won't get some comments, and you don't get those comments without visitors. The blog talk about the comixpedia.org community, the culture inside it, and other items related to comixpedia.org.

Tuesday Post-Holiday Updates


Comixpedia.com is pointing to the new site for me now - if anyone is still having issues post a comment or email me - I can't fix it if I don't know about it!

So how many of you managed to piss off a relative or two over holiday visits? Ah, the holidays full of cheer and... vinegar!

SGR's Shelly is recapping John Allison's top 20 albums this week. So far, I only own the Decembrists album, perhaps I am older then I realize...

Peter Bagge has a new rant-style webcomic up at Reason, this time about Amtrak.

Not a webcomic but Tom Spurgeon reports that the reprint of the Little Nemo In Slumberland books have almost sold out of their 5000 print run and the publisher will print another edition.

And over at gaming website Joystiq, Foxtrot and CAD are neck and neck in their vote for webcomic of the week.
