Recently, my writing partner and I have gone on a very short hiatus whilst we rework a few things to accommodate another project and it got me thinking about the almost inevitable and sometimes dreaded occurrence that is, “The Hiatus”.
It is very rare to find an artist or team ...

On Hiatus - Be Back In Five Years
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, April 20, 2018The Use of Customs and Folklore
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, April 7, 2018
It is Orthodox Easter Week, and currently it's Resurrection Saturday, easily the most important day in the Greek Orthodox year. In Greece there are a ton of customs and festivities that have been taking place all through the Holy Week, culminating to today and tomorrow, Easter Sunday. One can ...
Burnout
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, March 16, 2018
I want to take a quick break for a second to talk about something creators go through but often don’t talk about. It is hard to see it coming and even harder still to lift yourself out of once you are there. This post is about addressing creative burnout ...
Merry Christmas, Drunk Duck!!
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 25, 2017
I love to see a great Christmas miracle. Chalk it up to watching It's a Wonderful Life or A Christmas Carol and having a surprise ending where a community comes through and brings a surprise present for the main character. I believe I have just witnessed a Christmas miracle ...
Using social media to get Senpai to notice you
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Dec. 22, 2017
As we gear up for the holiday season, we take this time to reflect on the year and decide on the inevitable New Year’s resolutions that follow. Whilst most will add, “Take better care of the plants”, “Do more exercise,” and “Finally get my life together,” to the list ...
Mirror, Mirror - Part 2
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Dec. 15, 2017
Last week we talked about the benefits of mirroring webcomics on various platforms. Today, we’re continuing this theme.
The monsters in the market are now Tapas (formly Taptastic) and Webtoons, boasting a large audience that could maximise your reach. Smaller communities such as that on Smackjeeves, Comicfury and here ...
Figuring Out Dating as an Introspective Comic Nerd
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 4, 2017
(I drew this in my comic ten years ago.)
I am going to broach a subject that we do not openly discuss in the forums, or at least is lacking an open channel for discussion: Dating.
The first time I ever saw an effort to blend nerd culture with dating ...
Net Neutrality: last-ish stand?
Banes at 12:00AM, Nov. 23, 2017
On December 14th the FCC will vote on removing Net Neutrality protections for the Internet.
The vote happens near the Christmas holidays, and the announcement was made just before the U.S. Thanksgiving holidays - this is one of those tactics that is used to push through unpopular legislation - and this ...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN, 2017!
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Oct. 30, 2017
Six weeks ago, at the end of my article titled “Psychopomps and Death Personified”, I asked the question: Can you think of any examples of the personification of Death in a comic? How about on Drunk Duck (Yes, you can plug your own comic)?
Much to my delight, fellow community ...
Daring to Do Something Different
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, May 29, 2017
Today is Memorial Day in the United States. I have met many young men who have joined the military and each time I look into their eyes, I see a brave person who is able to confront fears I never had to face at that age. Some of them may ...
