Games of Wit, Battles of Rhetoric, and the Art of ‘You Suck’
Hey you – yeah you with the nose.
You suck.
No, wait. Wait. Let me try that again.
You suck, like your momma on my d*** last night.
No, no, wait. Still not quite right.
You suck, like your momma on my d*** while your gf was giving her a tongue dive.
There.
Now I feel I have successfully refuted your position on Austin’s stance on the Sense-Datum Theory.

While there are many out there who decry sprite-based webcomics as less than art because they use other people’s original material for their own purposes, there are others – like A Modest Destiny‘s Sean Howard – who actually work hard to not only create their own ORIGINAL pixellated works of comic art, but to also lobby to keep others from stealing said work.

Damonk’s Own Quickie Personal Webcomic Year In Review
2003. The Year of Stuff. One Year after 2002, and 365.23 Days before 2004.
Backwards, it would be 3002…
…which time-wise, would actually be forwards.
After having been exposed no doubt to the bajillions of other media’s own versions of Year In Reviewstravaganzas, it’s clearly obvious that the one thing you would now crave most would be to hear YET ANOTHER person’s own thoughts on the year.

A few nights ago, while in a drug-filled haze (the prescription kind), I hopped online for what was supposed to be a few minutes to chat with my wife, only to be slapped across the face with the Holy Trout of Revelation. Continue Reading

There’s a word that’s been slipping from more and more reader and creator lips lately when it comes to webcomics. An "S" word.
To my mild surprise, it isn’t "suck".

Who needs to drink like a fish when you can draw like one? Tim Fish’s little webcomic corner of our universe certainly goes to great lengths to bring a whole new meaning to the term "Bottom’s Up!"
Young Bottoms In Love, a short story webcomic anthology site that updates weekly, focuses wholly on gay love, relationships, and of course, implied or "tastefully"-depicted soft-core snuggling. Continue Reading
It still surprises me to think of how my wife and I got together.
What happens when you put a half-dozen of webcomics' brightest and most vocal brains in a vegematic set on "inquisinate"?
Well, we put Chris Crosby, Joey Manley, Mark Mekkes, Chris Morrisson, BoxJam, and Scott McCloud in a chat room together with an inquisitive Damonk, to see what would happen. The result was a frothy milkshake of a chat interview that focused on awards for webcomics and their value or worth in the webcomics community.
If you're into grey matter milkshakes, or some cool, refreshing idea-sharing, than read on to see what these pureed brains had to say…

Homework For Webtoonists
Smell that?
That familiar lingering scent, the heady musk of worry and frustration at a summer that is dribbling away through your sweaty, sunburned, strawberry ice cream-stained fingers?
