Panel 4
Miss Match (angrily, as the phone in her hands erupts into flames): Meet-cute?! What the fuck is a “meet-cute”?!

Iron Dragon (looking at phone, smoldering in Miss Match’s hands):
If I were smart, I wouldn’t have let Lightning Lady borrow my phone this morning.
I’m running a Spice Rack Comics Showcase on Patreon — a creator-by-creator spotlight featuring samples from every artist in the collective.
So far, I’ve highlighted:
• The Cummoner — delightfully unhinged fantasy filth
• Pixie Trix — sexy mischief wrapped in razor-sharp humor
And we’re just getting started.
By the time the dust settles, I will have shared 87 pages of NSFW comics with Patreon backers — all pulled from the massive Spice Rack sampler PDF. It’s a fantastic way to discover new creators, expand your reading list, and support the indie adult-comics community.
If you’re a Patreon backer, keep an eye out — more artists are being featured every few days, and some of these comics absolutely go places.
(And if you’re not a backer yet… this is a pretty great month to give yourself a gift.)
Philly Feed
Here’s another exciting announcement for some great stuff that’s coming up in 2007:
Phables, my long-form comic about life in Philadelphia, is going to begin updating every Monday starting later in January.
It has been very successful in the
Philadelphia Daily News, where it started running every other Monday earlier this year. We made the official announcement on
Philly Feed, which is the podcast of the
Daily News.
And, yes, if you go to today’s
Philly Feed Web site, you’ll see that although I’ve worked there for eight years, they spelled my name wrong (unless they’ve fixed it by now).
Spelling aside, this is fantastic news because, between the
weekly cartoon I do for their sex-advice column and the now-weekly
Phables, I’m going to be spending more time than ever doing cartooning as my day job.
If you’d like to download the podcast and listen for yourself,
knock yourself out. We talk about some the Phables from 2006 and discuss what makes a really good Phable.
