Project LAIKA -- Nick ABADZIS's secret works

Can't wait! And neither can Abadzis fans, who are about to be knocked sideways by this extraordinary new project of his, a true labor of love. Sorry: I meant to say a labour of love. More to come, more to come!

To blog or not to blog

Argh_1 There are times in the world of comics blogs and bulletin boards, when the ranting and raving gets hot. To join or not to join, in the wildfires of opinion?

SARA VARON is the author of the magical SWEATERWEATHER, from Alternative Comics.

Her project with us, ROBOT DREAMS, is in thumbnails and I love it already. It's got it all, humor, pathos, animals, just no words, or very few. There's a very peculiar, very unique quality to Sara's characters and stories. And it's strangely addictive.
