Dallas Web Comic Expo (DWEX)

    This Saturday November 14th I’ll be doing my first expo to promote my this website. The is the first time they are holding the Dallas Web Comic Expo, you can find for information at www.dwex.info

   I’m excited and nervous and not fully sure what to expect. If it turns out to merely be an event I get to hang out with a lot of web cartoonists that will still be worth it. I had some swag made up to sell and give away. I have several version of a mini-comic made up to give away. I also had some mouse pads and t-shirts made up.  I’m probably going to sell the t-shirts for $10  for the show. I’ve not come up with a price for the mouse pads, mouse pads just aren’t used like they used to be.

    I have some shirts I may just give away and may end up doing the same with the mouse pads. Just to see if anyone is reading this I have a few things I will give away to the 1st 3 people that come up to me and give me the code word “aardvark”. If you know me you don’t qualify, sorry. I’ll give them a small care package of things, some are things that I won’t be selling.

     This is a low quality picture of some of the swag I have and a sneak peak at my banner.

   I have an idea of which shirts will sell and which won’t, maybe none will. I guess we will see. I have shopped around and have gotten some great deals over the last few weeks on this stuff so I don’t have a lot of money invested. If I break even I’ll be happy. Heck, I’ll be pleased just to get some stuff in people’s hands that promote the site.

   So I’m prepared to have some fun and I know the guys putting this show on have put in a lot of work and we are all grateful. Thanks guys! See ya’ll at DWEX.




Fan Art From Krishna of pcweenies.com

    When I first started doing a web-comic I naively just emailed various web-cartoonist I admired. Most went unanswered and unacknowledged. However Krishna Sadasivam of www.pcweenies.com and www.uncubedthecomic.com answered me right away. Not only did he respond he took the time to really answer my question.  He is hands down the most approachable of the best know web-cartoonist.

   That was a while back and over that time my admiration for him has only increased. So yesterday when I got an email from him with “fan art” in it of my main character, I was just down right giddy. I’m still just amazed the he took the time to do it and it really looks amazing. After last week doing my first comic expo and receiving Krishna’s amazing art this week I feel like I have arrived finally and belong here in web-comics. I’m even in the earliest stages of planning a short run book by the end of the year.

   Krishna, thanks again. You made my day and then some.

   To all my web-comic buddies out there. Jealous much? :)
