One of my goals with this site was to eventually start workshops on creating comics, as well as discussions on their artistic merits.

Now. I am in no way an expert, but I’ve learned a lot about pacing over time, and I always stress that to all my creator friends. Seriously, if you don’t pace your work well, you run the risk of having a lopsided story, or something that feels too rushed. I know from experience, I’ve had a bad habit of restarting comics because I didn’t page my work properly.

Thus, you should check out this article from the official Star Wars website about comparison of the Star Wars: A New Hope manga and the Marvel comics adaptation. I own one of the New Hope volumes, and it is QUITE an inspiration. I am glad this article was written. Be sure to check it out if you’re serious about your work.

On another note, would you guys be interested in some posts that focus on art, writing and other aspects of creating comics? Would you prefer just focusing on existing webcomics? Maybe you’d like to see how outside materials apply to the art form?

Please, share your thoughts with us.

Recently I had some computer trouble. Resulting on me reinstalling Windows XP. I saved a lot of stuff on my second drive, so Cosmic Dash’s update schedule won’t suffer. However I did lose all my webcomic bookmarks. So, how about you guys recommend some comics for me to bookmark?

All you need to do is post the comics you think I should bookmark in this entry’s comments. Maybe I’ll find something new I’ve not seen otherwise.

As a bonus, I’ll also likely use any comics linked in these comments as future featured comments. So please, comment away.

Turns out I felt compelled to create my own font for Cosmic Dash. You won’t see it on this page, but you probably will on the next. So far, version 1.0 is up and done, and here is a preview image.

I need beta-testers to try out my new font. Click the image below for more details and how to get the font for testing.

Let me know what you guys think of it.

No downtime this weekend, as the downtime was this evening.

Yeah, what I thought was going to take 24 hours took about 4 or 5. We should be all situated now though.

If you run into any trouble, or something isn’t working, please let us know. Also, if you’re one of our many contributors, contact me so I can explain the new log-in for you.

Anyway, relax. We’re still bringing The Science.

Special thanks goes to our partners at Comic Dish for providing us this gracious hosting.
