Webcomics creators talk art, money
Just in time for Halloween, I look at four webcomics that don’t need zombies to be scary in my Unbound column at Robot 6.
The best thing about Evan Miller’s interview with Shatia Hamilton at ANN is that it alerted me to the fact that she is back at work on Fungus Grotto, a webcomic I enjoy immensely.
At Tor.com, Jaymee Goh interviews Sydney Padua, creator of the Ada Lovelace webcomics at 2D Goggles. The comics are short, smart, and funny, so if you haven’t read them yet, stop denying yourself the experience! (Interview found via When Fangirls Attack.)
And this interview with Dean Haspiel is worth reading just for his story of how he came to work for Harvey Pekar.
Kinoko Fry’s animal “facts” made me laugh, as did her take on the Bible. Good stuff.
At PWCW, Todd Allen writes about the decision-making process he went through when setting up his new webcomic, Division and Rush, including lots of thinking about how to monetize it.
Toby Craig’s Punish the Dead is back from hiatus. (Via Shaenon Garrity.)
Brad Guigar spotlights a fund-raising webcomic at Webcomics.com, and he also explains how to set up free wallpaper for your paying customers.
New webcomic alert: Spain & Morocco, by Alex Fellows. Link is to page 1. This one is just getting started (it was rec’ed by Scott McCloud) and it looks very promising.
Paul Hughes at Guys Lit Wire endorses David Gallaher’s High Moon as “a perfect read for the week before Halloween.”
El Santo reviews Last Res0rt as his struggle against the vampire women continues at The Webcomic Overlook.
Daku reviews Superfrat at Digital Strips, and the latest Horizons Watch podcast does a where-are-they-now take on some of the strips reviewed in previous podcasts.
Pigs of the Industry checks out the Zuda comic Doc Monster.
