Quackcast 321 - Cafecast
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, May 2, 2017 LISTEN!
Art by ozoneocean
We titled this one “Cafecast” on the suggestion of Pitface! Instead of chatting about a subject, we took ourselves off to a metaphorical cafe and all started drawing, working on sketches, our latest comic pages, and chatting as we did. We're all comic artists after ...
UHG I CAN'T EVEN
HyenaHell at 12:00AM, April 7, 2017
We've all been there: all of the sudden, the trajectory of your own life seems to thwart you from your ambitions! Maybe it's obligations to schoolwork or your day job; maybe your partner or family; maybe you wind up homeless or awkwardly crashing on a series of couches ...

START AS YOU MEAN TO GO ON
HyenaHell at 11:17PM, March 23, 2017
Every now and again, an acquaintance or friend who ain't as deep in comics culture and creation as I am (which is to say they ain't really got much of an idea about comics but have seen the Sunday funnies page and know that Batman is a thing ...
Buck the System Imagery
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 4, 2017
So I suppose it is no secret I like activism, standing up for a cause and giving it your all no matter what. From my comics to my actual life I have been doing so.
But what about the imagery that gets such a thing across to an audience in ...

The Hated, Part One - Villain Heroes
I've picked up all the “new” versions of the Archie universe and enjoyed them to different degrees for the most part. Sometimes there are a few laughs. Or some nice artwork. Or just the fun of seeing the characters ...
Nemesis
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 14, 2017
Just the name inspires awe, a level of attention and gravity. Because it was a name before it became a noun: she was the ancient Greek goddess of revenge and retribution against those who committed any kind of hubris.
In stories though, a character that takes the position of nemesis ...
