Here we go folks, the official Webcomic Hurricane Relief Telethon starts now. Every 20 minutes for the next two days the telethon site will be updated with a new comic strip donated by cartoonists across the web. The effort is to encourage people to donate money to the Red Cross to help fund the relief effort for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Please keep checking the site and please give all you can.

We will be updating on the progress of the telethon, including a special podcast going online Tuesday night to discuss the telethon progress up to that point.
