The trouble with families is, no matter how hard you try to get it right, they just remember the previous ninety-nine times when you got it wrong. Or maybe that's just mine. And, of course, Stan's in the online graphic novel Shades.

Well, Stan's still trying to patch things up in today's instalment at Broken Voice Comics but you know what? I think he might just need your support even more than last week!

Mid-Ohio-Con Info . . .

I'll be exhibiting at the Mid-Ohio-Con this weekend. All the info you need can be found at the Mid-Ohio-Con website. The con is Saturday and Sunday only. I've gotten some e-mails from a few of you who've told me that you'll be at the con, and I can't wait to meet you!

Frontpage posting will be light (as in almost nonexistent) this week so keep your eyes peeled for interesting updates in the reader blogs and the forums. It's up to... you!

HEADLINES

• Von Allan has decided to publish his graphic novel, the road to god knows on Girlamatic.com. The press release states it will start on December 3rd, running four time a week. Girlamatic closed its most recent round of submissions in early November - I wonder if we'll see an announcement of more additions to the site in the near future.
• Time to get ready for the annual Monkey Day webcomics festival! Check out the details here.

JUSTIFY MY HYPE

• Tom Spurgeon reviews Set to Sea by Drew Weing. This is a great comic and one I actually look forward to buying in print someday.
• Gunbaby was in the BSC Webcomic Idol contest but didn't last long enough. It's a good comic that seems very promising even as it is less then perfect. Wonderful art (reminds me a bit of Alpha Shade) but sometimes static shots kill the momentum. Interesting story ideas but sudden uncued scene and perspective jumps could be handled a bit better. Creators Matt and Gabe White have talent though - you get the sense that they could get a lot better. I'd definitely give the archives a read.
• Kate Beaton is funny!

MOST READ

• T Campbell takes a second swing at compiling webcomic audience numbers from Alexa and Compete.

DEAD TREES... For me!

• I'm playing around with a book swap service called Book Mooch. Potentially cool, although it's pretty weak in the graphic novel side of things right now... You can check out what I'm willing to trade through a widget on my home page here.
