The kids today, they like the manga, don't they?.. Actually, I'm one of those kids. If you're one of those kids too, then I have your back, because Grounded Angel is now part of Graphic Smash.
The writer of Grounded Angel, Steve Hogan (Bryceworld) has gone and written a press release for the announcement, so I'll keep my virtual mouth shut and let him do the talking, but watch out tomorrow for another debut, and later this week as I officially announce two more new upcoming GS series in the Grandiose Graphic Smash style! Lots of good stuff this week, is what I'm saying.

Savvy webcomics readers may have heard of Grounded Angel before. It
was the most popular webcomic at Komikwerks for its entire existence.
Now, it..s relaunching, starting Monday, October 9, and will run every
single weekday!
Grounded Angel is the story of 16-year-old Gloria, who finds out
during a really bad day that she..s an angel, the herald to the end of
the world. Possessed of strange and terrifying powers, she..s on the
run from the forces of good and the forces of evil - at the same time!
This shojo, or girls.. manga, can in fact be enjoyed by all genders and
ages, and is created by Steve Horton (STRONGARM from Image), Johnny
Lowe (JUDO GIRL from Alias) and Vivi Erlanita (GROUNDED ANGEL is her
major debut!).
..When I began editing Graphic Smash earlier this fall, I made it my
immediate mission to get some really great manga on the site, and
Grounded Angel is just that,.. says Tim Demeter, editor of Graphic
Smash. ..Steve and co. have a fantastic comic going here, that I feel
will appeal to existing Graphic Smash readers, and attract new ones as
well. Like all of our new debuts this fall, Grounded Angel is a
completely free read, so you have no excuses not to give it read.
You..ll be glad you did...
