I think most of us who live in or near big cities have been to comic conventions. But despite having such a huge concentration of artists here, we seldom seem to talk about broader arts communities. I’ve always been a casual patron of local art galleries, but the curatorial ...

FEATURED COMIC --> CTV ReVamped
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, March 23, 2016
Welcome to the wonderfully creepy forest of Kellwood, a dank, yet cosy place, home to some very unusual inhabitants of the creepy yet deliciously cute kind… demons, vampires, werewolves and more! Poor Menu is a werewolf with no life skills who's starving, his only asset is an amazingly fantastic ...
Bridging the Gap of Nonverbal Communication with Drawings
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, March 21, 2016
I have always been a proponent for the belief that art and drawing can be used as a mechanism to bring two strangers from completely different worlds together. That is why it is no surprise that I gravitated toward a young student who preferred to use crayons, markers, and paper ...

International Women’s Day in Webcomics
HippieVan at 12:00AM, March 11, 2016
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 ...
Lifting the Block
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, March 7, 2016
I have been feeling inspired lately. It is not to be confused with the same wave of inspiration that usually happens when I listen to Bon Iver while driving down a highway at night (even though that also works). It is the type of inspiration where a story begins to ...
