We first heard about Frappr from Yirmumah and later when Comixpedia started mapping all the web cartoonists in the world. Now we can’t not be sheep here and not fall in line with the rest of the farm. So visit us at our Frappr site and tell us why any in their right mind would listen to us.

We received word today that Jared over at Head Injury Theatre has made a little comic about your favorite webcomic podcast hosts and we thought our readers would get a kick out of it as well. You can see it here. Head Injury Theatre has a lot of very funny, and kinda twisted, comics and Jared’s style is original and really interesting. I love the way he drew Daku.

You may recognize Jared’s work from the cover of the Webcomic Hurricane Relief Telethon Book. Continue reading →

Amongst the web comic picks on our most recent show was the excellent comic Scooter and Ferret. Since posting the show we’ve had a nice exchange with Georgia Ball, half of the team responsible for the comic and we have come to find out that there were a few inaccuracies in our original discussion on the show.

We had mentioned that Scooter and Ferret was a relative newcomer to the web comic scene with only 3 months worth of comics in their archive. Continue reading →

Just a reminder that the Digital Strips charity auction is still going on for another day on eBay. We are auctioning off the original artwork I did for the Web Comic Telethon and all proceeds go to hurricane relief efforts. Also, the winner will be getting a free CD with all our shows so far on it. All proceeds go right to the Red Cross, so please bid generously.

During the recent Webcomic Telethon for hurricane relief I submitted a comic strip to be a part of the event and to help out. You can view it on the telethon site by clicking here. I was proud to take part in such an important effort and such a big event in web comics.

Now, I’m taking it one step further and putting the original artwork for that comic up for auction on eBay. You can find the auction on the other side of this link. Continue reading →

The cartoonist behind The Outer Circle, Steve Napierski, has included a little dig at us in his latest comic. It’s a funny strip that we’ve reviewed before and his blog does a good job at posting web comic news as well, so if you haven’t been reading this one you’ve been missing out. Go have a look.

As for the accusation, I swear Daku’s green card is in the mail. Honest.

As we’ve discussed before on the site and on the show Daku and I have been thinking about adding audio ads to the Digital Strips podcast. After announcing the idea and asking people to let us know if they’d be interested in such a thing we got a lot of positive feedback about adding web comic audio ads. Several of you want to take part.

However, audio ads are a controversial topic within podcasting circles. Many think this sort of thing detracts from Continue reading →

Well, it looks like my plans for attending Otakon this weekend have been dashed. They removed the online registration before I had a chance to register and now they say they will probably sell out some time Friday, a day before I was to arrive. Curses.

There will be other cons I suppose. And next time I’ll remember to register earlier.

For those who have been with us from the beginning you may have noticed that our 29th podcast marked 6 months of the Digital Strips podcast. We had no idea that this hobby of ours would get to where it is now this fast. Who would want to listen to our opinions on a medium which is notorious for being fickle? The loyalty of you, our listeners, has been inspirational and we would like to keep the momentum going.

How can you help us? There are a handful of podcast directories which allow ratings. Continue reading →
