A Ferret Needs your Help.

Posted by jtpokie on October 17th, 2006

Hey Folks. I revieved this e-mail the other day. Seems there is a Webcomic ferret in trouble who needs your help!

Check it out, help if you can.

(From Mike, the guy from the Girls With Slingshots Fanclub/supporter thingie…)
I’m not sure if you have heard of Starline’s comic Candi (
http://www.candicomics.com/ ), it’s a semi autobiographical webcomic
with a style that has anime, Disney and David Willis’s influence in it.
With talking and flying ferrets, the squirrels mafia, and art teachers
from hell. Starline is a big fan of your comic, I’m sure you’ve seen her
fanart in the forums….

Well, Menjou the ferret is based on Starline’s ferret, Bobby, who has
just been diagnosed with Adrenal disease and has a bump on the head
which might be cancer. The operation cost so far for her is 750$ and
that doesn’t even count surgery.

I know I’m really pushing it here, but… could you be so kind to make a
small mention in your next news post or something? I’d be eternally
grateful if you
did! Her paypal address is starlinex@gmail.com

Paul Taylor of Wapsi Square already made a post about this issue ( http://pablowapsi.livejournal.com/53162.html )

Slingshot the Girl to the UK…

Posted by jtpokie on October 6th, 2006

Hello this is a long time listener to the podcast, but first time emailer.

You know Danielle Corsetto of Girls with Slingshots and Batboy, right?

Well, Danielle is trying to go the Birmingham International Comic Show, but she’s not really sure she can pay for the tickets there…

Yeah, her house hasn’t burned down, and she didn’t have a baby, but still…

She’ll be selling a lot of her artwork among other things at Ebay, so a
small mention would be appreciated. Uh.. please?

While you’re at the page, check out the dancing cactii, courtesy of…
well, me! :P

Anyway, I always come to your show to be informed of what is going on in
the webcomic world, so I thought it would be a could idea to inform you
of this, I hope I’m not burdening you or anything…
