An old movie called Sullivan's Travels is about Sullivan (natch), a film director who makes successful but shallow comedy movies. He wants to abandon these efforts and do a more serious project about the plight of the downtrodden.
After some wild adventures posing as a hobo, Sullivan experiences some ...

There was a time when getting the local paper delivered to my door each day did not seem like a frivolous luxury. In fact, having a newspaper subscription seemed as common as watering the lawn.
I have fond memories of picking up the newspaper and turning to the Business section ...
Creators vs. Readers
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 6, 2018
Creators and Readers are two groups that go hand in hand. In a very substantial way when it comes to art, one cannot exist without the other- Art is created to be seen, heard, felt and read or otherwise enjoyed (including eating it), even if the only one doing that ...
It's Cold Outside
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 28, 2017
It's downright freezing out there - colder than the norm for this time of year (in recent years at least). And it's going to stay cold, they tell us.
Eeks!
So, comics artists, how do you DRAW “cold”?
There are a few ways that come to mind:
Mostly, I ...
Merry Christmas, Drunk Duck!!
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 25, 2017
I love to see a great Christmas miracle. Chalk it up to watching It's a Wonderful Life or A Christmas Carol and having a surprise ending where a community comes through and brings a surprise present for the main character. I believe I have just witnessed a Christmas miracle ...

As we gear up for the holiday season, we take this time to reflect on the year and decide on the inevitable New Year’s resolutions that follow. Whilst most will add, “Take better care of the plants”, “Do more exercise,” and “Finally get my life together,” to the list ...
Snow Business
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 21, 2017
We had a big snowfall two weeks ago, and I was out driving the city in it (I have a part time delivery job).
My car and I held up pretty well in it, and that was satisfying. As the news warned people to stay off the roads, I was ...
A Day Without Webcomic Host Sites
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 18, 2017
(The idea of this post piggybacks on Tantz's article on Net Neutrality, which was inspired by Jillyfoo's forum thread on the same topic. Jillyfoo coined the phrase “planting the worry seeds” in the forum post in order to consider the worst possible outcome.)
I would go outside and ...
On The Still-Ongoing Net Neutrality Issue
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Dec. 16, 2017
A thread in the forum by JillyFoo on Net Neutrality has inspired this newspost.
I did some cursory research on it on the issue of how repealing it might affect artists- indie artists, like most of us are as webcomic creators and DD contributors.
According to Rolling Stone repealing it ...
