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.)
Comixpedia has named the Halfpixel crew —
Scott Kurtz,
Dave Kellett,
Kris Straub and me — in their annual
People of Webcomics List for 2007.
From their pouty lips:
All four of these creators came together to create a new “brand name” called Half Pixel. We wouldn’t quite go so far as to call it a “super group” a la the Traveling Wilburys (although ELO fanatic Kris Straub would probably be besides himself if we did) but it certainly represents a stellar collection of established, veteran webcomic talent under one label.
Besides continuing to work on their various webcomic projects in 2007, collectively the four of them began a very informative podcast on webcomics and are in the midst of working on a book on webcomics, scheduled for publication in 2008.
