Good comics to read

This is just a tiny subset of the comics I read, focusing on the ones that I feel are particularly excellent and which you probably haven't heard of. They're in roughly alphabetical order, more or less.

Decrypting rita: Dreams, reality, what's the difference?

Endtown: A post-apocalyptic wasteland filled with post-mutagenic creatures.

Modest Medusa: A silly-but-serious story about a young gorgon and a bridge between worlds.

The Non-Adventures of Wonderella: The life and times of the raddest and best superhero ever, when she feels like it.

Rusty and Co.: Three classic D&D monsters take the adventure into their own hands.

Sacred Grounds: Supernatural creatures running a coffee shop.

Secret Life of a Journal Comic: What it's like to be Ty Halley.

Three Panel Soul: Journal Autobiographical Inspired by actual events.

Yellow Peril: Client relations, race relations, relation relations.

Comic-oriented weblogs

Artpatient: Your webcomic is atypical and you should feel atypical.

Luprand's Webcomic Musings: Honest webcomic reviews, without the incessant posturing or snark of others.

Other resources

Comic Rocket: A great online comic reader app, which helps to track comics and also lets you create archive-catchup RSS feeds. Might actually be better for comic reading than subscribing by RSS!

Webcomics Nation: A decent no-frills free webcomic hosting site, with a much better community than the other well-known ones.

Blambot: Pretty good comic lettering/effect/title fonts, many of which are free for non-commercial use.

FontStruct: Flash app; make your own stylized fonts. Surprisingly powerful, albeit within limitations.

My wrists are a lot better now but I still need some time to regroup my thoughts regarding Invasion, and anyway I'll be traveling for a good chunk of the next week so I don't think I'll have a chance to really work on it anyway. But still feel free to submit guest art if you want!

I'm taking some time off from drawing to give my wrists a chance to heal. So, guest comics! Just email them to fluffy at beesbuzz dot biz and include how you want to be credited and any website you want a link to.

This is open to everyone. Don't say, "I'd draw something but I don't know how to draw." I have no idea what I'm doing either. As the ever-wise Jake the Dog says, "Sucking at something is the first step to being sort of good at something."

Aside from my wrists and my lack of motivation at work and my usual anxiety problems coming back for stupid reasons and my inability to record a simple song by the deadline this weekend and me feeling like a wreck in general, everything's great!

Just thought I'd share.

On the plus side, stay tuned for a special surprise on Saturday.

(I guess now it isn't as much of a surprise. Still, it's special.)
