Every good story (true, fabricated, or more typically, somewhere in between) here in the City That Forgot to Care, begins with a thoughtful pause, a drawn out “Well,” followed by the phrase “what had happened was…”
“Who drank my beer?”
“Dude, what happened to your face?”
“Why are you carrying ...

Cultural background and comicking
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 13, 2017
My city had a massive snowfall on Boxing Day this year – the day after Christmas, for you non-Canadians. Nothing too unusual for a Canadian winter, but even so the city always seems to grind to a halt when it happens. After having a neighbour help him get his car unstuck ...
The Romantic and the Cynic
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 2, 2017
The year 2016 was not as horrible as some people thought it to be. I did go through some personal changes that might not be seen as monumental in the wide scope of the world. I have always been a true romantic–a label given to me by an English ...

I promised a follow up to how I do digital drawing specifically, not in general!
(Original article on digital drawing - http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/news/2016/dec/08/digital-drawing/)

S'now Time Like the Present
Banes at 12:00AM, Dec. 1, 2016
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 ...
The Journey Home
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Nov. 21, 2016
I found myself at a crossroads two weeks ago where I felt that my mind and my heart were in two separate places. I would carry on the same routine for months, following the motions of getting to work, performing a mundane task, and then driving home with heavy eyelids ...

So I was thinking… in this day and age if you get on any type of social media, you are going to be punched repeatedly with CONTROVERSY! HERESY! HEATHENS! LIBERTARDS! CONSERVOTARDS-OR-HOW-EVER-THEY-ARE-CALLED-TARDS! …and so on. On blogs and tweets and even more so on youtube, making a ...
QUACKCAST 291 - The philosophy and politics of comics
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Oct. 4, 2016 LISTEN!
Raphael's School of Athens.
This week's Quackcast is brought to us by Tantz Ariene! Tantz is a very political creature, seeing as she comes from Athens which is pretty much the birthplace of politics AND philosophy, that's hardly surprising. Clever Tantz in her tantzglasses, dudeman Banes ...

Art by Ozoneocean
- Do you worry about offending specific people with your writing? Where's your line between honest expression and regard for other people's feelings? This was Bane's brilliant idea for a Quackcast. We touch a little on the idea of a “culture of offence”, where ...
