Announcements for the first week of February 2009
SPECIAL NEWS FLASH:
In a midweek post, I mentioned the ZGraphicNovel website, which posts some free comic material. The material is scheduled to rotate automatically. Last week was “Welcome to Holsom”.
This week, if you go to the “Exclusives” section of the ZGraphicNovels site, you will find Elysium Dreams, by Kathleen Webb. It’s AWESOME stuff.
NEW THIS WEEK:
WEBCOMICS.CC LIBRARY NEWS:
The Prodigal Daughter
New to the WebComics.cc library bookshelf is The Prodigal Daughter. A featured story from Cyberlight Comics, the The Prodigal Daughter is a modern retelling of the parable we’re all familiar with, except, of course, it’s a daughter in this case, and not a son.
The Prodigal Daughter was written by Cyberlight’s head honcho, JCServant, and drawn by Robbie Smith.
(The WebComics.cc Library is a recent addition to the WebComics.cc site. More than just a links page, the Library is a “reading room” where you can find new and old comics on the web. It’s divided into three sections: The Bookshelf, with links to complete stories; The Magazine Rack, linking to serialized stories, most of which are featured here; and the Funny Pages, humor strips, also featured here. The Library is a big part of the WebComics.cc work in progress, and is itself a work in progress. Whenever we add a new story to the Library, we will announce it here!)

Why flying whales? Why not? Of course . . . this whale’s not flying. Not anymore. A fantasy webcomic in the vein of The Dark Crystal, Narnia, Lord of the Rings, or Nausicaa in the Valley of the Wind. (And the creators assure us, there’s a reason for the flying whales . . .)

The story of a bear who inadvertently finds himself the friend and protector of a little bird, and the journey of discovery this sends the bear on, One Swoop Fell features beautiful artwork and compelling characters. One Swoop Fell is the best of what all ages comics can and should be.
