QUACKCAST 167 - Anatomy of a Villain
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, May 20, 2014Let's Talk About Villains

I used to take the side of the cheerful, positive, and heroic protagonist in films and comics when I was much younger. As I got older, I wised up to the idea that being a protagonist is relative to biases of the storyteller. Now I rewatch those same films with ...
FRIDAY NEWSPOST - When Comics Jump the Shark
HippieVan at 12:00AM, April 11, 2014
Earlier this week, one of my sisters sent me some upsetting news: Archie Andrews is going to be killed off in an upcoming issue of Life With Archie.

FRIDAY NEWSPOST - Abandoned Webcomics Nostalgia
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Feb. 7, 2014
It's one of the great tragedies of webcomics the way ‘real life’ so often gets in the way of our comic work.
I was going through my list of favourites the other day; having been here nearly 6 years now, it has gotten pretty unwieldy to the point that ...
