Derek and I recently recorded the July edition of The Comics Alternative Webcomics show where we reviewed three titles from Study Group Comics: The Secret Voice by Zach Soto, Titan by François Vigneault, and Black is the Color by Julia Gfrörer, three very different webcomics, yet all worth your time.
If we weren’t before, we’re definitely in full comics and graphic novel mode here at the blog. Recently, Derek and I recorded our June Webcomics episode, where we discussed Hans Rickheit’s Ectopiary, Jen Lee’s Thunderpaw, and several horror short stories from Split Lip. I hope you’ll check out our discussion of these titles, then check out the webcomics themselves.
This month over at The Comics Alternative Podcast, Derek and I discuss three webcomics, two ongoing and one completed.
First we have The Fox Sister by Christina Strain and Jayd Aït-Kaci, a strange tale set in South Korea during the 1960s, followed by Ben Fleuter’s Derelict, a post-apocalpytic story with many intriguing points, and finally a completed webcomic by Jeff VanderMeer and Eric Orchard called The Situation.
We’re always looking for more webcomics to discuss on the show, so whether you know of a good ongoing or finished webcomic, please let us know. Hope you enjoy the podcast!

Derek and I recently discussed three webcomics over at The Comics Alternative Podcast. As usual, we discussed two ongoing titles and one completed webcomic. First, we discuss K.C. Green and Anthony Clark’s western/fantasy story Back. Next we tackle the dystopian fantasy The Only Living Boy by David Gallaher and Steve Ellis. Our completed webcomic discussion focuses on a title that began way back in 1999 and was completed in 2001, a webcomic called When I Am King by Demian 5.

And speaking of the podcast, Derek and I will be recording February’s webcomics episode this weekend, so keep an eye out for it and other upcoming episodes on our calendar!
Yesterday Derek and I recorded a podcast that is now up at The Comics Alternative Podcast covering the new graphic novel Vapor by Max (from Fantagraphics), as well as two new titles, Feathers #1, an all-ages title by Jorge Corona (Boom! Studios), and The Dying and the Dead #1, a 60-page issue with writing by Jonathan Hickman, art by Ryan Bodenheim, and colors by Michael Garland (Image). If you’re a comics fan, all three of these titles – while all very different – are definitely worth your consideration. We hope you’ll give us a listen, then join in the discussion on our forum.
Also our interview with Ian Edginton (The Kingdom of the Wicked) is up now.
If you haven’t checked us out for awhile, you should know that The Comics Alternative Podcast also discusses webcomics. On each webcomics podcast, we cover two current ongoing webcomics and one completed webcomic.
