Whoa, Canada
Lots happened over the weekend, which I can only attribute to Canada Day. A belated happy national holiday to our friends from the north, and when they conquer the world in a bloody reign of terror and tyrrany, we hope that they will remember our friendly nature towards them and their webcomics. In the meantime, it’s a Fleen Quick Quiz™! How many Canadian webcomics can you name? We’ll spot you Canadaman.
In south of the border news:
- IRS regs meet webcartooning as Dorothy Gambrell illustrates the complete Schedule C Principal Business or Professional Activity Codes Table.
- Loremaster Lore, with some intriguing thoughts on how successful we should hope for webcomics creators to be (hint: fair-middlin’).
- Are the readers of Stuff Sucks also concerned about music? Liz Greenfield with a new piece of tunes-related merch.
- Which led to a journal comic of which I was not previously aware. Reminds me of Dirk Schweiger’s Moleskine journal in art style, with the same sort of “watch my life, learn about me” vibe you find at Planet Karen. Ladies & gentlemen: Adam Cadwell presents The Everyday.
- Meanwhile, Dave Kellet on breaking free of self-imposed artistic boundaries, Scott McCloud on the end being nearly in sight, and another creator quittin’ the day job: Danielle Corsetto may or may not have to file as category 711510 (Independent artists, writers, & performers) on Schedule C at some point in the future.
Geek Tragedy hails from the Great North. Tons of fun to read and look at with a brutally subtle dark side.

Liz Greenfield is in the UK these days, so wouldn’t that be “way east of the border” news?

Three Canadian webcomics come to mind:
User Friendly
Least I Could Do
and, one that isn’t one of the big guns, The Tao of Geek

Canadian webcomics? Well, how about Orneryboy, Dorkboy Comics, Hate Song, Butternutsquash, and Grumps.
