Daily Variety reports that Benderspink (producers of The Ring and Butterfly Effect films) is producing a feature film adaptation of Last Blood, the Keenspot webcomic co-created by Bobby Crosby and Chris Crosby and illustrated by Owen Gieni.

Keenspot is happy to announce that three popular comics from the mind of Bobby Crosby are being added to the network. Last Blood, Marry Me, and +EV will now be Keenspot-branded sites and participate in cross-promotion with other comics in the line-up. Print editions of all three titles will continue to be published by the Blatant Comics label.

"Bobby's comics now attract a readership of over 20,000 people daily, and we're thrilled to have them all in the Keenspot line-up," said Chris Crosby, Keenspot CEO and older brother of Bobby. "I've been working with him in a production capacity since he started, and with the buy-out of the company it only made sense to fold them into Keenspot."

Keenspot is proud to announce that prolific, award-winning cartoonist KC Green has joined Keenspot.

Keenspot is proud to announce that prolific, award-winning cartoonist KC Green has joined Keenspot. He brings his signature comics HORRIBLEVILLE, BEE POWER (formerly DROOP), and others to the popular webcomics network.

"I've been a fan of KC Green for awhile, and I'm honored that he's chosen to join Keenspot," said Keenspot CEO Chris Crosby. "His unique brand of humor and strikingly original art style make him one of the brightest lights shining on the webcomics scene today."

Keenspot is proud to announce the debut today of STRANGE SOMEONE, a new webcomic created and written by SORCERY 101 creator Kel McDonald and illustrated by Mia Paluzzi.

On the heels of the February 28th news that Crosby Comics had acquired complete control of the company, Keenspot has announced a new system that allows Keenspot creators to retain and control 100% of the advertising revenue they generate for their sites. Cartoonist Tiffany Ross, who left in 2006, has enthusiastically rejoined Keenspot in response.

"With the rise of highly-effective new ad networks and exchanges, we believe few know better than a comic's creator about how to maximize their ad sales and target the best-paying ads to their site," said Chris Crosby, CEO of Keenspot. "Combine that with the strong community and promotional aspects of Keenspot, and the new system seems to make for a winning formula. As our members freely share knowledge on how to generate optimal ad revenue, Keenspot drives traffic to their sites using our multiple promotional venues."

Darren "Gav" Bleuel and Nate Stone of Orthnormal Systems have sold their 50% stake in pioneering webcomics publisher Keenspot Entertainment to Crosby Comics for an undisclosed sum. The agreement gives Chris Crosby and Teri Crosby full ownership and control of the company.
