More Drunk Duck news!

silvipera and floodgatemartyr have got a comic (Lil’ Hero Artists) which you can buy (at DriveThruComics) or free-download (at Wowio)! You can support their work by getting a copy (and Wowio’s free, why not?), because the more downloads they get the more likely their publisher is to release a print version!

I don’t normally announce cameos but since it’s me this time, why not! Remember a few newsposts ago I announced that Electronic Revolutions The Burnhams was reaching 100 pages? Well it’s there now, and the 100th page features loads of DD cameos… including me! I’m the monkey. :)

Rudolf’s comic Rudolf (it’s a reindeer horror comic) has reached 25 pages!

Cricket’s Creature by patrickdevine has turned 1 year old!

The Author’s The Author turns 100 The Author comics old on Friday! (The Author)

For Your Eyes Only! That’s Kohdok’s comic, and it’s turning 200 pages (and six chapters) old! (Also, its 1st birthday is the 18th!)

Dawginson tells me that Four Bats (that’s two bats, doubled) has just hit #150! And for the event, there is “some pretty swish artwork”! You don’t want to miss that, do you?

smkinoshita (a fun name to try and say) has a comic named Super Temps and is turning 200 pages this weekend!

So many high-numbered milestones, great job guys!

News and thoughts on the equation.

First off, I need to mention that Night Owls has just begun a new story-arc featuring a familiar face (or lack thereof). Be sure to check it out.

Second, River City Mechanical is finally up!

Next, there’s been a discussion on the Webcomic Success Equation I started tinkering with. Anyway, the community over at The Wotch found it and started to discuss it.

Overall, it’s a mixed bag, the initial post was saying that the formula seemed pretty accurate, but dissenting opinions seemed to appear rather quickly soon after. I’ll go ahead and post some of the choice arguments here.

Every Saturday from 5PM Pacific Standard Time until “question mark” I’ll hook up my camera and mic and draw live and chat with viewers. So go ahead and bookmark hpkomic’s comic-factory and check it out this Saturday. I’ll be glad to talk about stuff with you guys as I doodle.

Special thanks to my Nightgig peeps for informing me of this Tooncasting thing. If you’re not listening to the Gigcast, you’re missing out. As a bonus, that same episode features an interview with our friend David Gallaher.

Oh yeah, and a bonus, some pencils to my next comic page. :)
