http://www.schlockmercenary.com/

From the website: I’ve never missed a day. There have been no guest weeks, no two-for-Tuesdays to cover a missed-it-Monday, and no stretches where I hurriedly threw together a week of Ennesby and Schlock doing plot exposition because I knew I could get seven days of that penciled, inked and colored inside of four hours.



Webcomic Xylia is running a contest right now for its fans.
http://xyliatales.com/

BE AN AZLOEAN CONTEST call for entries continues! Submit character ideas and a photo of yourself and readers will vote on who gets to be drawn!  The prize?  The winner gets to appear in the webcomic as a faerie.  All you have to do is submit a photo, aura color, name meaning or letter for name to start with, and type of wings.  A panel of judges will narrow the final results to about ten, and then the readers will get to pick who appears in Xylia.

Star Wars: Clone Wars Web comics coming in November.

Grant Gould broke the news last night (at least online) that he, Tom Hodges, Katie Cook, and Jeff Carlisle will be working on a The Clone Wars web comic for StarWars.com to accompany the tv series. Hodges revealed more this morning on the TFN boards:

The quick version is each week, we’ll be given a story leading into that weeks episode. Now it could be a direct tie-in or peripherally connected from a distance because some episodes have story arcs not connected to each and every episode. Keep in mind, the series will not always be about Anakin, Obi-Wan and Padme. It will flesh out characters we’ve only seen bits and pieces of.

This will also NOT be “web-strip” format. It will be full color, comic format and each story will be 5 pages in length.

AND

Star Wars: Visions of the Blade – An Online Original Comic  Online Now.
