Mundane Tasks
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 27, 2018The Origin Stories of Webcomics | Part 2
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Jan. 26, 2018
Last week I decided to be indulgent and explain where I came from as a webcomic creator and this week I am finishing that story, at least up to where I am now. It was so lovely reading all your comments about your origins. It is very easy to look ...
Fandom
Banes at 12:00AM, Jan. 25, 2018
In a world of adapted comic book characters and stories, reborn old franchises, and endless brand-excavation of old TV shows, toys, and video games, our entertainment culture is something different than we've previously seen.
“I.P.'s” are dug up repurposed endlessly, in order to try and make a ...
Quackcast 358 - Damaged Characters
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 23, 2018 LISTEN!

A well written protagonist will generally have some flaws, starting out as an underdog of some kind, with lessons to learn and improvements to make over the course of the story.
Granted, some heroes are, well, just heroes, who are pretty much who they need to be from the beginning ...

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 13, 2018
So as you probably know, there has been an Indiegogo campaign going to help us raise money to make our inebriated waterfowl current with the times, and more interactive for the readers, with the comment alert feature and the capacity to reply to comments feature among other things.
But before ...
A new coat of paint - The DD website design update!
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Jan. 12, 2018
Last year, our glorious leader Oz suggested that the site needed a fresh, new coat of paint to bring the community forward in the webcomic sphere. As a way to usher in a brand new year for the DrunkDuck community, we unveiled the new look for the website over at ...
