Podcast update: Congratulations to The Webcomic Beacon, which will be broadcasting its 100th episode live this Sunday via TalkShoe. TGT Webcomics interviews Swedish artist Irma Eriksson of Imy the Comic, with guest co-host Samantha Wikan of Life’s a Witch joining the fun.

Coyote Trax posts a rather lukewarm review of Creative Catharsis. Luprand’s Webcomic Musings, a blog I just discovered via Delos, reviews the allegedly NSFW Less than Three.
