SPACE 2011: Check out Christopher Baldwin's Spacetrawler comic today.  Done as an introduction to the forthcoming print book, it features Baldwin himself breaking the fourth wall.  As far as the book - Baldwin also reports that it was shipped to the printer this week on Monday, as planned with an estimate on the release date coming soon.

HYPE: Really liked today's Bad Machinery. Writing for 'tweens strikes me as challenging and the last panels of this one captured that in-between-ness well.  Also - funny!

DEAD TREES: Newspaper syndicate offers a bargain - one month free! - on possibly the best strip in the newspapers, Cul De Sac.

iWEBCOMICS: Mark Millar writes about digital comics - between Apple and his publisher, he's only making 35% of the digital comic's price.  Not sure how that compares to floppy paper profits to a creator though.
