No problem, Greg. The bots really like this thread. Maybe they want a comic on David's site. Or maybe they want David to update his site (hint hint). :D

Re: Firstwave Printing & Brad Linder

After posting to several message boards, Brad at Firstwave decided to ship out my books. I am waiting for their arrival and will update with the status of the books once they arrive. Rock on! Take this message to my brother. You will find him everywhere. Wherever people live together, tied in pover...

Yeah, I've been deleting them on sight. There's been at least a couple a day for the past week. I'm not sure if Greg's been seeing them too. But they like to grab old topics.

It says that I am a "realist". I was going to draw a pork chop.

Tim, why does your pig look scared? Kris, yours looks a bit worried. I think that they know what their future holds.

Got a new one up if anyone cares. I care, but not about the comic you reviewed. SP is one of those comics like PA where it's sometimes funny yet not enough to keep me reading. I might go back once a month and read a couple of strips but I won't go through the whole archive to catch up. I see that K...

I used to worry about this kind of stuff all of the time. Now I realize if they screw up the movie they will only make themselves look bad. I have the books on my shelf and the characters in my mind, and they can't take that away from me.

Nor are they working on my PC with FireFox. But they did work in MS Internet Explorer. If you are useing FireFox you could right click the image and select properties and read them there.

Around page eleven I became a little worried. I was thinking that this is a little lite for a IAG chapter. Then from behind you threw a jab that knocked me on my ass. The layout is good and the color is great, but the story... The story is what keeps us comming back for more. Great job, G!

I print through POD services primarily. Fitting the standard book formats is the cheapest way to go. I'm don't know what service you are using but I found this statement over at ComiXpress. What size comics do you print? ComiXpress prints two standard sizes: traditional comic size (6.625x10.25?) an...

Recently I went to screen-friendly page proportions in the current chapter of UNAF , but arranged it so that they would create a standard print page when laid out two-up, and made sure each pair, when combined, would read well. Why does it have to add up to a "standard" page layout? If you are goin...

I get grumpy about emoticons the same way I get grumpy about a lot of "net-speak" abbreviations. Shakespeare didn't need emoticons. Your point about them being similar to gestures when speaking is a good one. That reinfoces that emoticons may be part of the communication, but not a part of the lang...

I'm always drawing pictures for someone to show my thoughts in real time. It happens all of the time.

Very nice, it looks very promising. I look forward to seeing more finish works. I agree with Tim, that the slide show is very annoying. Maybe if you upped the time to 30 seconds instead of 10 it wouldn't be so bad.

My favorite technique is the scribble in pencil until it sort of looks right then ink. Sometimes it works and looks good, but most of the time it looks like crap. Not the way to go if you are looking for perfection.

Sorry, I didn't understand. I like the Liger. It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic.
