A duck-load of news.
Oh wow, heck of a DD news update today. So much news we’re going to have to insert a cut!
So, first bit from our talented friend Skoolmunkee:
So today I place in the forums for you all to read, an interview with
LowResAtari. He and I have a bit of a talk about sprite comics!Quote:
What types of things help a sprite comic stand out from the pack?
This is going to sound kind of weird talking about this particular subject, but original ideas are the best things you can have for getting noticed. Random comics, “Let’s all fight for absolutely no reason” comics, and massive cameo comics are among the things you’d want to avoid if you don’t want someone to roll their eyes and move onto something else.You can read the rest in this forum thread!
The rest below the cut!
And if you say ‘news’ you are wrong mister! T_T

title page/comic thumbnail for Rumbles. Contestants should PQ me their submissions for The Rumbles Title Page/New Comic Thumbnail Super Contest! Only one entry will be able to win this coveted title I so made up within twenty seconds.Daf42 tells me that Musical Farm News is reaching 100 pages (and also 2 years old) on Saturday, and so to celebrate he has started posting “cover versions” (like those guys who rip off songs) of some of his favorite DD comics!
Hitting 75 pages is @$$hole! It is also the start of a 3-month story art that will update 3x per week for the first time! “It’s going to be a fun ride, as it celebrates the 21st birthday of Laura (the main character’s girlfriend).” A 3-month birthday party? Sounds awesome
(And tiring)
Keith McCleary has a big announcement! His comic Killing Tree Quarterly is being published by Terminal Press, and will debut at the NY Comic Con (April 18-20). Congrats!
Also, the book Debbie Does Dallas (it has zombies) which Keith helped color is on sale at the Terminal Press Website. Buying a copy of either book will add pennies to his pocket!
Abt_Nihil is so happy that his comic A.D. 1997 has completed its first 5 episodes(about 110 pages) that he’s having a contest. Winners will get comics! Want more
details? Best of all, it doesn’t require art!Times Like This by PyThomas has reached 50 pages! Congrats!
Janen’s Per Ardua has also reached 50 pages, and is having an update in color to celebrate!
You know the comic Caggage, don’t you? Sure you do! Well, its 100th strip has arrived, but it’s 4 pages long and will be posted throughout the week! Lots of people have been waiting for this particular accomplishment so check it out!
poinko would like to say that A: he has no life, and B: Lancaster the Ghost Detective will reach 700 pages next week! My what a big number you have…
Faults by worstcase has hit its 75th page milestone!
omegasonic0’s comic Sonic Meets Megaman has reached 25 pages! That’s 25 actual pages, if you want to count 25 story pages, that will happen next week! So congrats to that too!
The Devon Legacy has reached 175 pages! Whee! JustNoPoint tells me that “now is the perfect time for people to start tuning in” as the prologue is about to reach its finale! (A 175 pages prologue? sounds epic, daaang)
Thanks Skoolmunkee!
