- RT: @RepKucinich: Why is it we have Finite Resources for Health Care but Unlimited Money for War? http://tinyurl.com/yfr6xle #
- @DavidGallaher Thanks for the add. You've set a new bar for webcomics with w/ "High Moon" that'll be tough for the rest of us to clear.
# - RT: @WWIIToday: Honoring the 350 WWII vets opening the Nat. WWII Museum expansion today. Please RT anytime you see #WWIImuseum #
- @gdwessel That transient global amnesia story was fascinating! #
- @BrianDenham Yeah, and those asshat "Michael Steeles" grinning in the photos next to her need to slap themselves. Have some pride, people! in reply to BrianDenham #
- These days, people have a world of information, literally at their fingertips. There's no excuse for ignorance. #
- Every year some jackasses dress in blackface for Halloween, thinking it's cute. EVERY. FUCKIN'. YEAR! http://tinyurl.com/ycgdvya #
- That's the big question. I teach illustration classes occasionally. Paper and pencils are cheap, but computers aren't. #
- "Black-Made Webcomics" article by @dirtyjobcomics http://bit.ly/BcO3T #
- @dirtyjobcomics The act of creating a comic can be very empowering, and webcomics liberate you from the traditional distribution structure. in reply to dirtyjobcomics #
- @dirtyjobcomics Ah, went back and found it. "Black-Made Webcomics," right? It has me thinking about more outreach to young local artists… in reply to dirtyjobcomics #
- @dirtyjobcomics Agreed! in reply to dirtyjobcomics #
- Interesting article on the marketing of the dead tree version of "XKCD" http://bit.ly/3t9SfU #
- @StephenRL I'm jealous of this. So awesome! http://bit.ly/2ku4Jq #
- Added a great quote from Digital Femme to the WORD ON THE STREETS section: http://bit.ly/ZQHw1 #
- @gdwessel The saddest part for me is that Wilson represents my district. Insult to injury: His HQ is across the street from my comic shop. in reply to gdwessel #
- @IDWPublishing Is there any update on the release of the "Rip Kirby" compilation? Thanks! #
- @TheCarlWeathers I'd like to invite you to pick up your Unsung Bad Mother****** Award. http://tinyurl.com/ydjb8ez #
- @JessiaSott "I don't want to board a mothership unless Parliament Funkadelic is involved. #v" – You said it, sister! in reply to JessiaSott #
- Pastor pays a visit to stately Belmont manor in this week's episode, which was lettered by the hardest working man… http://bit.ly/nOkoA #
- @dave_flora However, how I would compile it is something I did NOT properly consider before I started doing it. Good point. #
- @pvponline DAAAAAAAMMMNNNN! When you go, you go HARD! #
- @dave_flora I don't think so. Williamson used a similar approach late in his "Secret Agent Corrigan" run. Also spacing between strips helps. #
- @dave_flora I've never liked panel borders. I experimented with it before, but it works better on a 1-tier comic strip than a comic page. in reply to dave_flora #
- @gdwessel Sad to hear that about "V." The "batshittery" comment was darn funny. #
- @dave_flora Alex Raymond worked on boards between 5.5” X 19” 3/4 to 16.75 X 21” 3/4). I'd like to, but I'd need bigger Vellum to ink on. #
- @dave_flora The bigger page format is quite freeing. With today's digital tools, as long as the ratios are the same, you can resize later. in reply to dave_flora #
- @cophotog Thanks for helping out last night. I appeciate you taking the time from your break to call. in reply to cophotog #
- The mention occurs early in the show, and was overall positive, just some skepticism of the self-appointed title. http://tinyurl.com/ykfwnjm #
- WORLD OF HURT rec'd quick mention on Digital Strips podcast. They seemed incredulous that there could be a #1 Blaxploitation webcomic… #
- See it again for the first time! Newsarama.com is rerunning World of Hurt every Tuesday and Thursday…. http://bit.ly/4bKcXH #
- @TroyBrownfield Many, many thanks for resizing that strip for me. in reply to TroyBrownfield #
- owes a big debt of gratitude to Stephen ("Jesus Hates Zombies") Lindsay for stepping in on short notice to letter… http://bit.ly/f5FIj #
- Big shout out to @StephenRL for sweeping in like Mighty Mouse to save the day!! http://www.captionsandballoons.com #webcomics #
- @StephenRL Hey Stephen, you out there? I've got a question (and possible HUGE favor) for you. in reply to StephenRL #
- The following is a real name: "Summer A. Slaughter." Question time: Is that the coolest name ever or is that the coolest name EVER? #
- OK, I'm officially tired of Drake. If it was your goal to become hip-hop's #1 earworm, then congratulations, Drake. You were "Successful." #
- @gdwessel Yeah, same guy. Completely random couple. #
- @dave_flora Testify! in reply to dave_flora #
- @GangStarrGirl If you play "Empire State Of Mind" Lil' Mama'll bust thru the wall like the Kool-Aid Man and hook you up with some lip gloss. in reply to GangStarrGirl #
- RT @evandorkin: Way Cool: Charles Schulz "blames" impending death of failed Peanuts character on reader:The Ax http://tinyurl.com/yb95jf8 #
- After Mariah and Nick Cannon, ex-Laker Rick Fox and Eliza Dushku have to be Hollywood's #1 WTF couple. Still dig 'em, just…unexpected. #
- @VeeIsAnimated But they're effective fearmongers. How about GOP=Old Man Pretending To Be A Ghost on 'Scooby Doo?' Dems=Scooby and Shaggy? #
- Karl Kerschl interview http://bit.ly/39sPqs #
- @dave_flora That Kerschl interview was the metaphorical foot on the accelerator for me. It gave me permission to mess up in public. #
- GOP=Sith #
- A GOP civil war resulting in fewer, but more extreme, Repubs in office is still bad news, since it just takes one to steamroll the Dems. #
- @dave_flora "Ghost Zero" is absolutely beautiful, from the acting to how you frame scenes. I'm jealous of what you do with gray tones. #
- I know the ads for the movie "2012" are supposed to make me go "Wow!," but this exercise in disaster porn just pisses me off. #
- Just added "The Frightful Fetus" to my "Webcomics I Dig…" blogroll. Check it out! http://www.captionsandballoons.com/fetus/ #webcomics #
- @chadbowers Is Rusty Shackles from the Dayton/Fairborn area? That used to be my old stomping grounds, esp. The Bookery. #
- RT StephenRL Where does an evil genius fetus live? Find out here, on pg. 10 of "The Frightful Fetus" – http://tinyurl.com/o94zvy #webcomics #
- @Digital_Femme Thanks for the shout-out. I think I have a new pull quote for my header. #
- I read where someone recommended my strip, but said I had an "irregular schedule as of late." You miss ONE time in 6 months… *Sigh* #
- @vinyl4giants Great! Now I've got ONE sold
But we've got to get my man Black Dynamite in wide distribution, first! in reply to vinyl4giants # - @vinyl4giants Chillin'! Trying to actually have a strip buffer for the first time. in reply to vinyl4giants #
- If someone ever does an Isaac Hayes biopic, the rapper, Common, would make a perfect 'Black Moses.' #
