The webcomics blog about webcomics

Quick Bits

On the one hand, you have a McCloud tour stop interview in comic form — very cool. Good likenesses of Scott, Ivy, Sky & Winter, too.

On the other, Friend-o-Fleen/foe of syndication¹ Dave Kellett informs us in his blog (no direct link, sorry) that:

Looks like Sheldon started a bit of an trend over at comics.com! Fellow comics.com refugee Barkeater Lake has moved to an independent site … and it’s lookin’ good. Head on over!

We at Fleen will be keeping our eyes on comics.com, and we’ll be sure to tell you if any other comics follow the lead of Kellett and Barkeater creator Corey Pandolph.

Lastly, the guys at Unshelved, fresh off their ALA convention trip, took some time this morning to tell us that their Pimp My Bookcart contest has a winner. Check out the winner out (pictured up top) here, and the runners up here. Congratulations to Bill Barnes & Gene Ambaum for having such a tremendous response, and to Katie George and the teens of the Miller Branch Library in Ellicott City, MD for their win.

¹ It turns out that Kellett is actually the once-torrid-lover of syndication, bummed at the thought that the system doesn’t really offer the professional life it once did.

Am I now classified as a “Foe of syndication”, Gary? That makes me sound like a Power Rangers enemy in one of the later seasons.

…and it implies an antagonism which I certainly don’t have. Lord knows I wish syndication was still the path it once was! That doesn’t make me a foe…that makes me a “once-torrid-lover of syndication, bummed at the thought that the system doesn’t really offer the professional life it once did.”

Cheerfully withdrawn!

I owe you an overpriced churro at San Diego Comic-Con.
