DS 20: Interview With Kristofer Straub and David Willis

Digital Strips : Show 105
[9.03 MB]
This week we interview a couple of the artists behind Blank Label Comics, Kristofer Straub and David Willis. Both of them, along with a few other cartoonists, recently broke ranks from Keenspot to form their own independent web comics label. During this interview they tell us all about their decision, their plan, and their work.

It should be noted that we used Skype to connect the four of us into the conversation. It seems the more people you connect the worse the overall sound quality gets. Some of the audio isn’t the greatest, but the content is well worth the slight loss of audio quality. Here are the comics by Kristofer and David:

Interview with Kristofer Straub and David Willis

Well you asked for it and here it is. In our past couple of Wednesday IRC chats (irc.cad-net.org 6667 #digitalstrips) some of our listeners have given us the brilliant idea of running a IRC chat at the same time as an interview so they can ask questions while the interview is going on. This does not mean the interview will be live or that you will hear us ask the questions but feel free to line up the questions for us to ask.

Our next interview will be with the talented Kristofer Straub (Checkerboard Nightmare and Starshift Crisis) and David Willis (Shortpacked! and Its Walky!) where we will of course find out what these artists think of the world of web comics and especially the introduction of Blank Label Comics. What does this web comic group mean for you and what are it’s plan for the future? So come one (we know we have at least one listener) or come all and ask your questions on Thursday June 2nd at 9pm EST in our IRC channel at CAD-Net.
