Maybe Daily, Even
Did you see this last night? From the twitterfeed of Eisner-award winning webcomicker (he does some other stuff, too) Cameron “Not Kristen Stewart’s brother, dammit”, Stewart:
New new new Sin Titulo!! http://www.sintitulocomic.com/2011/08/02/page-109/
Sin Titulo, of course, the moody, creepy, noir-ish creator-owned webomic that earned Stewart the Eisner last year; it’s been back-burnered for a while now as Stewart worked on various Batman titles, a Suicide Girls miniseries [NSFW, obviously] (once prompting famed Batmanologist Chris Sims to declare The only thing I want to see Cameron Stewart draw more than a naked hipster girl is a fully clothed Batman.) and his Assassins Creed project with studiomate (and current Eisner laureate) Karl Kerschl. But those other projects are either done or not breathing down his neck, and we get to see what a creator at the peak of his game can make when he’s creating for himself instead of drawing somebody else’s IP. Best of all:
[F]inishing Sin Titulo is now a main priority so that it may be published as a print book next year! There are still a few things here and there that might pop up so I’m not quite ready to go full-on 5 days a week just yet, but I will try to manage 3 or 4 updates a week until this whole crazy thing is finished.
HELL. YES.
- Irregular reminder that talented people are making recipe-providing comics over at Saveur magazine. Since we last mentioned the Recipe Comix series some three weeks back, Carly Mondardo has shown you how to hard-cook eggs without overcooking, Becky Dreistadt & Frank Gibson have sunk their Tiny Kitten Teeth into oyakodon, and Ryan North¹ delivers both a chili recipe and a philosophical meditation on the value placed by our society on flexing² within the usual six-panel confines.
- For those of you that were wondering (like me), New England Webcomics Weekend will return in NEWW3, when all is fresh and growth pervades the air:
Webcomics Weekend 3 is on the horizon, but not in 2011. It will take place in early spring next year, just like the first NEWW.
We organizers are feeling the crunch in ’11, so we’ll need the post-Christmas season to prepare. Sorry to delay things! NEWW3 will be great!
In matters of NEWW, Meredith Gran equates to “word of God”, so there’s the answer. Much as I want NEWW3 to happen in a couple of months/next week/yesterday, already, I’d rather wait another couple months and have the show retain its laid-back magic feel than have it rushed and be a hassle for the organizers³. Block it out on your calendars, and see you there.

² Where “our society” really means “a society of sentient dinosaurs and tiny women”. For more on flexing, please consult the internet.
³ Especially if “hassle for the organizers” means that Gran wouldn’t have time to put together Octopus Pie updates like the one that dropped this week. Those panicked eyes hidden under the blanket are perfect.

That’s fantastic. I’ve been looking forward to the next NEWW since our comic launched. I hope to be able to go.
