A lovely illustration from The Pirate Balthasar.
Initially, I had planned this week’s newspost to feature a selection of my favourite women characters on DD. But I realized as I was composing my list for this newspost that I was essentially just making a list of protagonists from my ...

HippieVan at 12:00AM, March 11, 2016FEATURED COMIC --> The weird adventures of Armless Amy
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 17, 2016
Little Amy is the cutest and sweetest little girl in the post-apocalypse. Of course, her adorable personality seems to attract the strangest of characters from a top hat wearing stranger, happy dolls, white rabbits, Sherry the living doll, Eloise, and Eustace.
This is a mature comic because it deviates from ...
FEATURED CREATOR SPOTLIGHT -> ashtree house
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 15, 2016
Ashtree house hails from the Great White North as one of Drunk Duck's Canadian ducks. She is best known on the site for creating the webcomic Steel and Manitou, which was featured nearly one year ago on February 18, 2015. Steel and Manitou tells the tale of a young ...
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 ...
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 ...
FEATURED COMIC --> Mindfold
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 20, 2016
One of Drunk Duck's most respected and talented comic creators makes a grand comeback with Mindfold, a beautifully stunning comic.
The setting is in the vast plains of an otherworldly location. On this planet, fantastical magenta beasts wander the land, a half homosapien-half cheetah girl calls it home, and ...
Quackcast 254 - Sexism in your OWN work?
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 19, 2016 LISTEN!
OMFG you sexist PIG! Heh… today we talk about trying to recognise sexism in your OWN work, what to do about it, and WHY. It turns out it can be very hard to do, and if you DO acknowledged it the instinct is to rationalise it away, justify it ...
The Freewheelin' 2015
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 28, 2015
Two-thousand fifteen started off with Kroatz wishing everyone in the Drunk Duck forums “growth, satisfaction, and purpose, even if it comes with an almost equal amount of suffering and loss.” I do not believe any statement made in this last year comes as close to this to sum up the ...
