Hello, ducks!
Been a while since I did one of these off-top of-my-head kind of pieces. Thought I talk about something that has been on my mind for quite some time. What exactly is deep and profound? A lot of artists throughout history have strived to make their art deep ...

We are talking about the trope of the Cad, AKA the Player. F***boys are their little scrappydoo kid-brothers, we call them “fun” boys for obvious reasons ...
Tension and Release and appreciation for Watcher
Banes at 12:00AM, Sept. 29, 2022
Watcher (2022) is a fairly unknown new movie, I think, and I recommend it. Simple, well-made, and scary.
Might as well get an early start on the October celebration, here - the fall is my favorite season, for so many reasons, including the time to celebrate our love for the scary ...
FEATURED COMIC --> Dave Skunk Comic
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Sept. 21, 2022
There is no better way to spend a lazy day than couch-surfing with Dave Skunk as he snacks on a surfeit of juicy nematodes. The embodiment of the early nineties grunge movement and counterculture, insomuch as Dave’s abilities to maintain a mohawk, indulge on insomnia-fueled VHS tape binges, percolate ...

Announcement: Chapter 1 of Blessed Days will end on the 17th of September
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Sept. 11, 2022
This Sunday we have a milestone announcement from DD member InkyMoondrop:
“Hi!”
“I figured I'd request a milestone announcement. Chapter 1 of Blessed Days will end on the 17th of September (new comics get released every Wednesday and Saturday, so it continues on the 21st). I think now is ...
Would You Hit a Girl?
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 10, 2022
So hitting a girl (or a woman) is extremely tropey. Regardless of how progressive your story is, a man hitting a woman runs a high risk of being considered lowly or less than heroic. That's because generally, women are considered weaker than men, thus an easy target. A woman ...
Venting Your Frustrations Needs Elegance
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 3, 2022
So it came to my attention that J.K. Rowling has taken revenge against her ‘internet trolls’ by writing a new book called The Ink Black Heart. According to reviews (I haven't read the book) the plot of the book reflects the author's experience of mass-condemnation over her ...

Hello everyone, it's been a couple of weeks, so it is time for a new Panel ...
