Creators and creations

Tom Mason chats with Mike Bannon, creator of Mordant Orange, who presents himself as sort of an accidental webcomicker:

In a blog post I was ranting at how I was going to give up reading Spot The Frog by Mark Heath. Mark saw the post and sent me a very nice email on how he was sorry to lose me as a reader. I felt like an ass. Four days later I decided to put my money where my mouth was a started drawing a comic strip.

Newsarama’s Steve Ekstrom talks to Rob Berry about a much more deliberate project: Ulysses “Seen,” a webcomics version of James Joyce’s Ulysses.

And former Disney animator Jim George talks to Chicago Now’s Geek to Me column about Draw the Dog, a gag strip based on photos of readers’ dogs.

  1. We appreciate the mention. Draw the Dog is just about six weeks old, and people in 47 countries have stopped by so far. It’s been a lot of fun so far… (I’m co-founder of the site.)

    That Ulysses comic could be pretty cool considering how impenetrable the original is. Comics as a superior method of communication!
