1) Hello! Tell us who you are, and what you do.
Hello! I am Nicholas Doan, Writer and co-creator of Pray For Death. Pray For Death was Zuda Comics’ first user submitted contest winner.
2 ) How long have you been writing webcomics?
Pray For Death is my first published work. However, I have been writing comics and studying the craft for over 7 years, since college while studying to be a playwright.
First off, Pray For Death just uploaded 4 new pages.
Pray For Death has updated today with four new pages which answer these big questions: Will Detective Jenkins get any useful forensic evidence at the scene of a triple crucifixion? Can Detective Smith be of any help at all? How much does it take to get Detective Jenkins to brandish her weapon? and the answers are: No, a little and, not very much at all.
Second, HIGH MOON is at it’s end-stages!
T
onight, at sundown, the FINAL ACT in the werewolf western epic, HIGH MOON begins!
Here’s what other people are saying about the webcomic series:
“The highest compliment I can pay this comic is that by the end I found myself needing and wanting more. … (Grade: A)” - WeeklyComicBookReview.Com
“It’s Sergio Leone’s THE HOWLING starring Clint Eastwood. If that doesn’t appeal to you, then seriously: seek help.”
- NEEDCOFFEE.COM“High Moon reminds me of the work of Sam Keith - the legend behind titles such as The Maxx. Yet it retains a vibrant life that is all its own. Every panel and every page is an artwork.”

HIGH MOON’s been a great ride so far. Interested in how it ends and what’s next for Dave after all this. Methinks it’s time for Ten Questions…

Read what others are saying about this dramatic series:
“This werewolf western will leave you HOWLING for more!”
– Rob Caprilozzi, ComicMonsters.com

– Dave Flora, Ghost Zero
“HIGH MOON merges great storytelling with rich artwork to create a superb horror-western, bringing out the best of both genres.”
– Darrell Ferguson, The Life of Darrell

I’m back from my week off, and I have some news to put up!
First off, we missed a lot of Mocca news, hopefully our resident-Mocca attendee (Hey there Wiggly!) will be filling us in on the experience.
In other news of interest, Websnark is doing a series of posts on different webcomics/authors, and they’re pretty good reads, give them a look!
Next, in Zuda news, Pray For Death has updated! In fact, it’s 4 new pages! Check it out!
Lastly, friend of the Scienteers, Nick Nitro is in a movie! I’ll just copy/paste his message here!
Hey everyone.Just a heads up that I was recently in a movie about a year or two ago, with some old friends of mine. Tami (Tamara) has made this really really really funny movie, so much so that I had to use italics. It’s called Johnny Appleweed. Yeah, you heard right.
While I’d love to tell you the plot, the trailers and websites here do the job much, much better than I ever will. Thing is, my friend needs your help. Heck, I do too. Apparently they are in a contest over at “From Here To Awesome” which will choose a winner and distribute the film.
Now, that is VERY awesome. I mean, sure, the imdb-listing is sweet, but if you could help not only me, but my friends, I would think of you as a rather swell person, dude (or dudette).

Anyway, sorry for the lack on updates from the inbox, things should be back up to speed now!
First, a couple of things from the mailbag!
Go to church with Pray For Death!
Pray for Death updates! When things left off last time, we saw a priest in a pretty sticky situation. Go to http://zudacomics.com/pray_for_death to find out how things worked out for him. Here’s a hint; not well.
Next we have more High Moon news.
Today, marks the pen-ultimate installlment in the werewolf western epic, HIGH MOON.
Here’s what other people are saying about the series:
“High Moon creator/writer David Gallaher must have about twenty brains going full tilt boogie, because there’s not a single false note in this tasty multi-genre combo platter which blends spaghetti westerns, hard-boiled detective fiction, werewolf B-flicks and Weird Menace pulps. You can almost taste the dust and smell the blood. Pass the popcorn, please.” - Kevin Burton Smith, THE THRILLING DETECTIVE WEB SITE
High Moon is what happens when you mix Doctor Strange and Doc Holiday. With werewolves, gunslingers, and the sumptuous artwork of Steve Ellis, High Moon will change everything you thought you knew about the Old West.
- Molly Crabapple, DR. SKETCHY’S“Mixing legend, mystery, and a touch of the wicked, Gallaher and Ellis prove how the west was weird.” - Drew Rausch, SULLENGREY
“High Moon looks to be one of the most promising comics to come out of the Zuda lineup to date. It’s highly original and combines a fast paced storyline with moody art that nails the head for this horror western.” - About.Com
Remember, the next HIGH MOON update is July 8th!
Watch for it!
Next, if you are a Livejournal user, you should add the ScienteerRSS feed to your friend-list to get site updates directly off of livejournal!
Lastly, founder of Drunk Duck, Dylan Squires has finally left the site, Comixtalk does a nice little interview with him. I’ve met Dylan a couple of times, and it’s a shame he’s decided to move on.
Anyway, hopefully we’ll get more news updates on the way. I’ve been a little neglectful lately, sorry!
