Welcome to March!
I thought I'd try a connected theme of Thursday articles this month. I've had some half-baked ideas floating around on the subject of “Point of View”. They haven't coalesced completely but I think I can figure out four articles on this topic over the ...
Points of View - part one
Banes at 12:00AM, March 1, 2018Quackcast 363 - The Art Of Comments
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 27, 2018 LISTEN!
Jason Moon, author of Crater's Edge, messaged me about some comments he had. He was perturbed about reader reaction to his storyline and wasn't sure how to handle the comments. I told him that those sorts of comments are the very greatest compliment an author can get ...
Quackcast 362 - Triumph der Ente
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 20, 2018 LISTEN!
In this Quackcast we chat about all the different options for hosting your webcomic. At the moment it seems the fashionable new young kiddies on the block are Webtoons and Tapastic, but they're certainly NOT the only choices for webcomic hosts out there and certainly not the best ...
Quackcast 361 - Primordial Creations
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 13, 2018 LISTEN!
Today we talk about where our characters began, not their origin stories or why we started writing them but rather what they used to look like! Pitface was inspired to create a thread based on this idea by Emma Clare's newspost series of origin stories. So we just ...
Quackcast 360 - How did you start in webcomics?
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 6, 2018 LISTEN!
In this Quackcast I thought we'd chat about Emma Clare's great and thoughtful topic of webcomic origin stories:
Basically, what was happening to make you start your webcomic on DD, all that stuff in your life back when you first began posting… Emma's newsposts are a ...
Quackcast 359 - The Covershow
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 30, 2018 LISTEN!
Covers are a very important part of books and comics! They entice us to pick them up and read them, they encourage us to BUY them. But how much are they really needed for webcomics? You hardly ever look at the front cover and what you really want in ...
Quackcast 358 - Damaged Characters
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 23, 2018 LISTEN!
This week we mine Banes's ideas about damaged protagonists. Does having physiologically damaged protagonists (as opposed to merely flawed), make them more realistic or relatable? I think we came to the conclusion that this isn't necessarily the case at all, in fact it can mean the opposite ...
We only need $55 dollars more till we're at our goal!

We're going build a comment notification system for DD so you can know who commented and when on which piece of art easily. And also who replied to your comments.
There are lots of cool perks ...
Quackcast 357 - Power, baddies, and sexiness
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 16, 2018 LISTEN!
Sexy badguys: power vs confidence vs sexiness. That's what we chat about here. Why do we have sexy bad guys? Are all bad guys and girls sexy? What makes them sexy? Is power truly sexy in fiction or is it confidence? There are so many aspects to this ...
Quackcast 356 - READERS
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 9, 2018 LISTEN!
*Cover image taken from work done by Emma_Clare*
READERS are a massive part of Drunk Duck! Actually readers are a huge part of ANY comic. But Drunk Duck tends to focus far more on creators than perhaps we should… This idea was inspired by a newspost of Tantz's ...
