God™ and Captain X

December 16, 2009 | Posted by Brigid

Here’s one for the young (and young at heart): Jay Piscopo has posted a free Commander X comic online. It’s an all-ages comic featuring a Silver-Age type hero, so older readers may enjoy it as well. There’s more info at Jay’s blog.

I was honored to be a part of ComixTalk’s 2009 Roundtable, together with Gary Tyrrell, Delos Woodruff, Shaenon Garrity, Fesworks, Derik Badman, Larry Cruz, and Johanna Draper Carlson. It’s some great, roll-up-your-sleeves comics discussion, and you should definitely check it out.

Also! I interviewed Elan’ Trinidad about his newest comic, God™, at Robot 6. Elan’ was nominated for an Eisner last year for Speak No Evil; this comic is totally different and literally made me laugh out loud at times.

The latest episode of the TGT Webcomics podcast features Alien Dice creator Tiffany Ross.

Two interesting articles up at Webcomics.com: Brad Guigar dissects Zingerding’s terms and conditions statement and counsels a despairing webcomics creator; the latter article includes Brad’s take on what creators can expect through the years.

Derik Badman is offering the fourth book of his webcomic Things Change as a free download.

DKM Marlink goes to a webcomics fan jam and reports back on it at Spwug.

Recent reviews: Lots of Zuda reviewing going on right now: RKB has a “Shame on you, Zuda!” moment with his spirited defense of Jason and the Argonauts at Pigs of the Industry, and Mike Perridge gives his take on Daemon’s Sphere, Goop Jr., One Hit Knock Out, SubSuelo, and Unseen Tribe.
