In this Quackcast we chat about the categorisation of work by specific genres and how it makes it easier to promote your work to people, while for fans it makes it easier to find what you're into, but it can also be a bad thing when people categorise ...

My side project, Strange Creatures, just passed 50 pages, so it's kinda legitimate now. It's more of an illustrated novel than a graphic novel. Anyone looking to check it out, I recommend starting at the beginning to avoid spoilers: http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Strange_Creatures/5561567/

How far can a Reboot go?
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, May 19, 2018
So I came across this new announcement of a reboot (?) due in 2019 of the nostalgic cartoon Thundercats that most of us grew up with (fine, ok, I'm only dating myself with this).
I have always been partial to Thundercats, but not overly possessive. I didn't mind the ...
Designing a Cover
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, May 12, 2018
Why is it so haaaard?
For me at least. I really am stumped when it comes to drawing covers for my webcomics. So much so that I would always find clever (?) ways for other people to do them for me.

For of all sad words of tongue and pen,
The saddest are these: “It might have been!”
Whether it's a webcomic, graphic novel, book, TV Show or movie, there is generally a “promise” made to the audience on some level. Maybe it starts with a thumbnail image and a ...
Quackcast 373 - Stupid millennials, greedy baby-boomers and lazy Gen Xers!
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, May 8, 2018 LISTEN!
Millennials are so dumb, Gen Xers are SO lazy, and those Baby-boomers are just greedy as hell aren't they? But seriously, in THIS Quackcast we chat about the different generations of webcomicers and what's changed and what we have to learn from each other. The first generation ...
This Way to the Egress

PT Barnum was a fascinating character, running “freak shows”, museums, and concert tours, and operating as an author and legislator/politician.
Apparently the phrase attached to him, “There's a sucker born every minute” is not necessarily something he
ever said.
As shocking as it is to modern sensibilities, Barnum ...

This is a useful list if you want to see if your comic qualifies for any of the categories before creating a ...
Quackcast 371 - PC GORN MAD!!
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, April 24, 2018 LISTEN!
Everyone tends to have a strong opinion on Political Correctness so I thought why don't we try and have a chat about that and ask what people think. Can it be a problem in comics and other creative works? I was inspired by a video by Youtuber Metaron ...
