The survey is here: http://goo.gl/forms/K6vgUqAjmD

Celebrating Black History Month: Chuck Clayton joins the Archie Gang
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Feb. 5, 2016
Last year for Black History Month I profiled Black Panther, the first black superhero (see that newspost here). This year I’m sticking with the black comic character theme with a mini-history of Chuck Clayton, one of the first non-white characters in Archie comics.
These days Chuck is an established ...
Webcomics and Update Schedules
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 29, 2016
Somewhere between “all the time” and “hardly ever” lies an ideal update schedule.

What ...

As you may or may not know we're currently trying to upgrade features on DD and fix some bugs like adding stats tracking for every comic and PQ notifications. But to do that we need money to pay the programmer so we're running an Indiegogo campaign! . Our goal ...
Breaks and Hiatuses
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 22, 2016
Hiatuses are a necessary evil in the webcomics world, it seems. Most webcomic artists can’t devote all their attention to their comic, and will at some point find that life – school, work, or family – gets in the way of regular updates.
In terms of maintaining readership, it’s best ...
