...and PLASTIC FARM related things.
Hey everyone,
It was a pretty busy week for me, which is pretty unusual, so I thought I'd take advantage of my posting privileges and totally pimp myself.
First, I had a guest comic go up over at Danielle Corsetto's GIRLS WITH SLINGSHOTS. It's probably the first comic I have ever had published in color. Thanks again to Danielle for letting me do this. You can read the comic here. (Make sure to check out the rest of the strip. It's really good!)
Second, an interview I had done a few months back went online. In it I discuss the origins of the name PLASTIC FARM, how various new electronic devices change the very language of comics, the dwindling presence of mini-comics, and probably poop somewhere in there. Here's an excerpt:
"I think that it's funny that comics are getting classified not by content, but by format. Maybe I'm old and crotchety, but I don't know why webcomics get segregated to their own areas at conventions or even get thought of as a separate artform. It would be like if I published Plastic Farm in a manga format and sat with TokyoPop because, despite our content being in no way similar, our books were both five by seven and a half inches.
So, if people think of me as a webcomic creator, I can't stop them. I like to think that I make comics."
Read the rest here.
Third, Matt Dembicki and I have been nominated for some S.P.A.C.E. Prizes. In the general category, Matt's TRICKSTER got the nomination, and we both got nominations in the minicomic/short story category. Pretty awesome stuff.
Here's a pretty link.
And finally, there's a bunch of work going on for MAGIC BULLET and we've received a bunch of really cool submissions already. If you are interested in drawing something, or advertising, please click on the MAGIC BULLET link in the menu bar, or here.
In the meantime, here's a panels from an upcoming Nightmare the Rat comics which will be in MAGIC BULLET #2.
Thanks!
