First off, from the inbox comes some news from our friend David Gallaher.

Over the weekend, The Process Diary with David Gallaher, co-creator of HIGH MOON. We  spoke a bit about how he got into comics, how he got the story pitched and published, and why Zudacomics.com is such a great interactive medium for artists and readers alike. There is some really interesting stuff, and I am happy to announce that this won’t be the last we hear of the High Moon crew - in a couple of weeks, I talk to Steve Ellis, the man behind the hand behind the images.

Next, Joseph sends us some Keenspot news.

Feel free to tell me if you get sick of these:

KEENSPOT DEBUTS “STRANGE SOMEONE”
New Webcomic From SORCERY 101 Creator Kel McDonald And Graphic Novelist Mia Paluzzi

Cresbard, SD, March 6, 2008 - Keenspot is proud to announce the debut today of STRANGE SOMEONE, a new webcomic created and written by SORCERY 101 creator Kel McDonald and illustrated by Mia Paluzzi.

STRANGE SOMEONE is about a woman named Liz who just wants to finish writing her book. Instead, she becomes caught up in the weirdness surrounding the guy she has hired to help her. “I’m really excited about this project,” said McDonald. “I’ve had this story idea for awhile now, but I just haven’t had time to draw it because of SORCERY 101 and now I get to see it come to life through Mia’s fantastic art!”

Paluzzi, best known for the 2007 graphic novel “Paintings of You” from Iris Print, is also enthusiastic about the comic and its debut on Keenspot. “I’m so excited to be here, I’m going to vomit rainbows,” said Paluzzi.

STRANGE SOMEONE is scheduled to update Tuesdays and Thursdays and can be found at strangesomeone.com.

Prolific Cartoonist KC Green Brings His Comics To KeenspotCresbard, SD, March 21, 2008 - Keenspot is proud to announce that prolific, award-winning cartoonist KC Green has joined Keenspot. He brings his signature comics HORRIBLEVILLE, BEE POWER (formerly DROOP), and others to the popular webcomics network.”I’ve been a fan of KC Green for awhile, and I’m honored that he’s chosen to join Keenspot,” said Keenspot CEO Chris Crosby. “His unique brand of humor and strikingly original art style make him one of the brightest lights shining on the webcomics scene today.”

“Keenspot has been kind of a dream for me since I discovered webcomics as a tiny child on the internet,” said Green. “I started reading webcomics ’cause of some of the talent these guys had back in the day. Now, I’m happy to be a part of that talent. Maybe some kid will discover and start reading webcomics because of me, and then grow to make some of his own. That’s all I can hope for.”

A directory of KC Green’s comics can be found at rumblo.com.

Hopefully KC will post and fill us in a bit on this. The DD news below the cut.
