Pop Smoothie and Zombie Marge Launch

Two Cincinnati Illustrators launched their own webcomics in the last couple months.

Pop Smoothie

Christina Wald who not only is a kick ass illustrator but works tirelessly keeping charge of the Cincinnati Illustrators Blog/Lunches has launched Pop Smoothie.

 

Each week she will highlight a new comic with inspiration from Pop Culture garnered from her indulgence in too much television.

Zombie Marge

Tim Fuller, another kick ass local illustrator/humor writer has come out with Zombie Marge.  Very loosely and probably not at all relating to Marge Schott (though there is a slight undead resemblance).  For the uninformed, Marge was the former owner of the Cincinnati Reds who made Ozzy Gullien’s mouth seem like a choir boy in comparison.

Zombie Marge and her sidekick worm Grubworth will take inside what it is like living decaying in Tanglefoot Cemetery.

Finally a special shout out and thanks to Debbie Adams for awarding me with a special Commenter Award.

The Power of StumbleUpon and Twitter

George this one is for you. I wrote an article for WebcomicPlanet on using StumbleUpon and Twitter and being able to post to both using one tool – Su.pr. Check it out here.

D. Long – At 100

Our final two guest cartoonists are actual published cartoonists in the ultimate of cartooniness – Mad Magazine.  First up is D. Long (you can see the image of the now released Mad that has his work on his blog).   You actually have to buy the magazine to see what he drew though.  Someone is yelling “damn the capitalists”

Now D is the mastermind behind Edmund Finney’s Quest to Find the Meaning of Life.  I am thinking his website address of eqcomics is short for Edmund’s Quest but it could be that he used to draw cartoons for home audio buffs and didn’t want to lose the URL.

Anyway, D takes Edmund on an ongoing quest that continually gets him in and out of trouble.  Just when you think he is safe…BAM, another tragedy befalls.   Mr Long is quite the character himself and decided to show us what he thinks he will look like at 100. 

 I am thinking that his balloon fetish might have taken a turn for the worse.  Thanks D!! 

Follow D. Long via Twitter updates!

Come back in 2 days for our final guest cartoon from the Frustrated Cartoonist!!   You can also keep up with me via Twitter. (just not now, I am busy I told you)

Unbearable Bears – At 100

Anyone with “Bear” in their webcomic title has to be outstanding.  And David LaMason must be even better than that because he has “bear” appearing twice in the title.  And this has special meaning because I am the recipient of David’s first Guest Cartoon.

Unbearable Bears is the story of Oskar, a dimwitted but loveable bear, and Bainbride, a headstrong birdbrain (literally he is a bird).  Frequently David himself has been making an appearance so he counts as a character too.  Thus I give you David LaMason at 100.

I know this comment will come out of one of you.  NO, David was never “touched” by Michaels Magic Glove.
