Scott Adams Picks New Artist for Unfit

Submitted by Xaviar Xerexes on February 16, 2006 - 12:33

Scott Adams picks Justin Thompson to be the new artist for his Mike Belkin's syndicated comic strip Unfit.

Adams writes: "The decision was Mike's alone, but I would have made the same choice." Given that many suspect Belkins is just a pseudonym for Adams I guess that's not surprising.

Making Their Marks on Webcomics.

February 5, 2006 - 18:03 | Iain Hamp

Between the two of them Terrence Marks and Isabel Marks have done a whole lot of webcomicking.Terrence Marks is responsible for writing the early anthropomorphic tale, Unlike Minerva (which is now concluded). UM is cool for among other reasons, for being one of the first webcomics with a single writer and a rotating crew of artists. In fact, Terrence notes on the UM website that he first encountered Isabel when she emailed him in September of 2000, "offering to draw [Unlike Minerva]." It wasn't until almost a year later he adds that they were "properly introduced."

Isabel Marks is the creator of Namir Deiter, and with Terrence, they collaborate on You Say it First and Spare Parts.

Terrence is also the founder of The Nice, an online network for webtoonists and he organized the first April Fools' Comic Swap and Fright Night webcomic events. And as if he wasn't busy enough, for the past five years, Terrence has also done the coloring for Bill Holbrook's Kevin & Kell.

The Great Print to Online Migration: When will that be

Submitted by Altercator on July 2, 2005 - 05:10

When would we see publishers, creators, artists & writers from the print comics world dominated by DC & Marvel migrate to the Internet to do webcomics? When will see these professionals take advantage of the Internet and create great stories online?

And meanwhile, should we usher in auteurs like Gary Larson, Bill Watterson, Berkely Breathed, Frank Miller and Grant Morrison to do their finest work online?

Many MANY of our webcomicking friends have published print versions of their work. I've tried to find, track down, and remember as many as possible.
