Here's another version, roughed out. Much more clear, I think. I actually like the concept behind the first version better. But this one lends itself a little more to versatile use.

The Asylumantics: The Phantom Musicbox is now shipping while supplies last!

The birth of someone...EXTREMELY...creepy.

Recently, on PvP, Scott Kurtz introduced a cadre of villains nominally named the Algonquin Hate Table (or The Sophisticates) as part of his current LOLBat storyline. However, the strip was updated moments later. Catch the change? Here, I’ll make it easy for you. As it turns out, unbeknownst to Kurtz, the character of Onomatopoeia had already become [...]

New “Children of the Revolution” page is up.

Publisher's Weekly has an interview with Paul Levitz of DC on the digital future of comics.  Nothing particularly revealing in it although Levitz imagines the current print to digital relationship to be something like radio to tv at the begining of television where television borrrowed from radio shows for awhile until ideas native to tv alone took off.  I wouldn't think that would be particularly comforting to DC and other print-heavy entities, although I suppose that having Zuda might be one of DC's strategies to be part of "digital comics taking off".  It's not a great analogy but it's interesting to see Levitz continue to talk about DC's digital strategies.

From J Gray of 2nd Shift

Hey everyone.

As I mentioned at the cookout, my wife and I are also having a cookout, this one on the 31st of this month. Its a birthday/baby coming/end of summer thing. There'll be food and there'll be Rock Band. Everyone's invited.

My address is 134 Evening Star Drive, Apex, NC. . We're starting at 11ish, having food around noon or 1ish and going until we're done.

A morning blog search on PC Weenies turned up a very surprising (and hilarious!) guest-appearance of Bob in a brilliant little webcomic called GlitchTown, written and drawn by Rasmus. What makes this significant is this marks the first time I’ve seen any of my characters appear in another webcomic by another artist, in the nearly [...]

INTERVIEWS
Wizard is doing webcomic stuff again - an interview with Tom Siddell of Gunnerkrigg Court, John Allison of Scary Go Round, a roundtable with a pretty cool cast of creators (from ComicCon).

Laura Hudson who works for the magazine Comic Foundry has a blog with some good webcomic-related posts.  Most recently she interviewed Leigh Walton of Top Shelf 2.0, and Rantz Hosely of the Long Box Project.

CONVENTIONS

Ted the Robot asks how many books he should bring to this year's SPX.  Good question -- surely there's some collective common sense advice out there on this?

STRETCHING COMICS?
Michael Jantze of the webcomic The Norm tries creating an "audio comic".  I guess it's for people too lazy to read the words themselves?

GREATER F-WAD THEORY OF THE INTERNET
So the Daily Cartoonists hits a civility crisis.  I can relate having had it rip through Comixpedia/ComixTalk in earlier years.  It's hard to come up with "rules" for conversation but you can kind of tell when a place is working and when it's starting to deteriorate.  The sad thing is it really always seems to be a small number of people who either like to pretend to be or probably really are borderline psychotic that cause the most damage to a site.  </soapbox>

AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 BLOGS
