Here's the game I've been working on for SOE for the past couple of years. It launched last night at 11:30. I was one of the special effects artists. It's free, and it's made for kids.

Webcomic Podcasts
I have 2 podcasts to share concerning webcomics that may or may not be of interest to you folks... the first one is created by Tom Racine, a card carrying nerd who Jeff and I used to work with many years ago at Jostens. He interviews all sorts of cartoonists both print and web based:

The other is hosted by 4 popular webcomic creators who talk about their own webcomic experiences and interview others. They can get off subject for long periods of time, but there are some good nuggets of knowledge in there. These guys wrote the book about webcomic publishing (http://www.pvpstuff.com/howtomawepor.html)and Scott Kurtz (PvP) is moving to the Seattle area soon and may join TAG when he gets here.

Walf
Here is the Walf mini comic I mentioned. This was a story Dan and I did back in 1989 about Walf, a hamster that belonged to a roommate of ours. It was for a mini comic called Acorn Comics which was self-published for fun. Rick also contributed a story and the back cover illustration. This was very primitive, it was photo copied, cut with a small paper cutter, folded and stapled by hand.
I have posted some other Walf artwork on my blog, Acornucopia Project , as well.
Cork 27
Here is 27, sooner rather than later. Ellis was on the verge of tears so I had to make sure I got it out before the weekend. He's such a precious little dear. God end him... I mean love him.
Bring Your Own Big Wheel

Buncake-My Blog has all Of Bounty Of Zone Z
Buncake, I've done all the scanning and Uploading of Bounty of Zone Z. Clicking the Headline takes you to my Blog for all the art. Click on the art then you have to do a lot of right click / save to relocate it.
I haven't done the Logo piece yet. I'll do that some time tomorrow.
Just to make it a worthwhile post I've shared a nice early Frazetta

Alien Messiah
I'm going to use this as the basis for a demo/lecture in class tomorrow. It was done in the early 80s and I'm going to go over it and point out things that are no nos and would improve the work. Love the tangent of the flying manta ray and the sword for instance.
Added my touch up. Even though I have a lot of stuff I did intellectually that may have "improved " the composition/staging and injected more focus, I like the original better.
I may show it anyway.

List of Contributors (So Far) ...
Here's the list so far. The Jack Kirby page contains info from Lisa Kirby, Jack's daughter and anecdotes I'll collect from pros who knew Jack's cullinary tastes. I forgot to enter in Scott Rosenberg, founder of Platinum Studios (it is my hope to have a top guy from each publisher, so I have emails in to Mike Richardson, Joe Quesada, and Dan DiDio. There are still some fence sitters, like Barry Windsor-Smith, and some I've included who have yet to send their recipes. But I'll get 'em. Thanks for all TAG members who responded; y'all have a Golden Ticket ... It should be a nice cookbook. I'm going to start putting together the "dummy" next week.
And if I forgot to include anyone in this list, let me know! ...

Cork 25
I've hit the quarter of a century mark with Cork. Actually, a quarter of 100 strips, but I'm going to celebrate anyways dammit.
More improvements
I'm still working on some of the specular settings as well as lighting but it's moving along. My computer doesn't seem to render it as clear as at school but I'm working on it.
Can always use helpful comments.

Approving Comments
We have a strange individual who is posting on here with distasteful user names, so I will be approving comments for a while. I'm sorry that we have to do this but I can't seem to find a setting to only screen non-members. If anyone out there knows how to do this, please jump in and take care of it.
I guess it was only a matter of time that we would attract someone with nothing better to do with his time than be a sniveling juvenile delinquent.
