Roy Boney

James sums it up nicely above.

Well, mixed feelings here.

This is obviously the end of Man-Man, after nearly a decade of Internet-driven madness. I probably shouldn’t say “the end,” because James and I may well decide to revisit the world and its characters, but knowing my own track record for following up on dropped projects, I have to be honest and say that there isn’t a huge potential for more runs at ol’ Drake.

Updates On Entries in the Ill-Fated Webcomic Directory Project?

I built a "library" of webcomics and creators back in the fall of 2005 which I put into beta before realizing it was too much editorial work to deal with and the same information could be better provided through the community edited webcomic wiki - COMIXPEDIA.

Nevertheless looking back on the assortment of names collected (some from me, some sent in from you) I wonder if anyone has any significant updates on these creators 18 months later. Maybe we should interview some of them?

Xaviar Xerexes Interviews the Special Events Editor, Matt Shepherd

Matt Shepherd is quite simply the man behind the man-man. An Anglophone living in Quebec, Canada, he was roped up by the Comixpedia crew to become the Special Events editor. From his devious Canadian mind was spawned the latest installment of Fright Night, and the most current machination is the love-infested Blind Date event for the Valentine's period. In this interview, Matt spills the beans on his comic book pasts, and his burning, bilious jealousy of our Editor-in-Chief's things.

FN October 30 is a little late...

ready to go, but the FN site/FTP access seems to be down right now, and I have to go to bed!

BRAIIIINS.
