Webcomic Wire - 6/24/08

Posted by DarthMike on June 24th, 2008

Drawn from sources who get their news from the Daily Show because it feels better in my soul-like region…

  • Platinum Studios announced in their newsletter that they recently had an independent firm perform an IP asset valuation and came up with the estimated worth of a little over $150MM.
  • Heidi MacDonald has a great post about how Platinum is dealing with D.J. Coffman, now saying that they’re not going to hand back the rights after all. I guess $150MM isn’t enough and D.J. is right, it’s never too late to do the right thing; I’m looking at you Brian Altounian. Joey Manley has more.
  • The Webcomic Watchman reviews Happiness is a Warm Gun.
  • John Freeman has a brief guide to making webcomics.
  • The Webcomic Overlook has posted reviews during its self proclaimed furry week.
  • Kevin Cornell talks about the implements of the trade.
  • Jon Rosenberg, creator of Goats, interviewed on ComicMix.
  • A helpful tip to webcomics with RSS feeds from Blueskycomic.
  • Call for artists.
  • Grumps is over, so long and thanks for all the fish!
  • Blank It, a new webcomic from Lemuel Pew and Aric McKeown.
