First off, if you haven’t heard about the Hot Topic/Jess Fink situation, you need to browse more news sites.

Anyway, Gary over at Fleen offers some advise for joining in on getting Hot Topic to do the right thing. He wants us to get our point across to hot topic without being jerks about it. Seems pretty fair to me. There has been a kind of progress (maybe?) concerning the issue, but we’ll see what happens.

In other news, Xaviar Xerexes talks with T. Campbell. on a number of things such as his many projects as well as Zuda and webcomics.com.

Lastly, there is a handy-page of webcomic resources being compiled. If you have some time, contribute to it.

Lastly, this is a pretty neat comic, guys.

Jump Leads

As Jump Leads, a comic I have been meaning to review for some time has joined SoulGeek webcomics I thought it was time to do my job and review it.

Firstly note that some references might not be got by everyone (such as Footballers wives being dull) but the idea behind them translates well enough. Ok that done lets begin:

Jump Leads is about an interuniversal police force called the “Lead Service”. The Lead Service goes around fixing the various universes to make sure everything works as it should. For this they have a home base called the Hub, which is located on the edge of a black hole. They then jump through these universes and fix the problem then return to base.

Now there are two new recruits in particular who this webcomic is about Meanie (the excitable working one), and Llewellyn (the goatie-wearing failure of a recruit). The two of them set off on their first journey on the jumpship Flurry.

Things happen and the story progresses. No spoilers here.

The artwork is both consistant and enjoyable. The characters have a depth about them even the ones that are only in one story-arc. However the story is really about Meanie and Llewellyn and the relationship between them.

So if you like Sci-fi webcomics or the letter L, Jump Leads is worth a read through.
