Promotional: Nitroglycerin


The WebComicsNation server is being very cranky this morning, but I wanted to provide a link to the new Nitroglycerin strip featuring the return of that 80s indie comics badass, Whisper. There's a tiny bit of copy editing I've asked Birdie to do in the second panel because while it made perfect sense when I typed it in a drunken stupor, the sentence is woogy on the "printed page." I'm sure it will be fixed when you see it and I have no idea why I'm going on it. You will soon see the strip below the fold on our beloved publisher's website, below the fold. Speaking of the esteemed publisher, I may have something for you guys to gaze at in the near future once some graphics work is finished. (Hello, Ed! Hello, Marshall!)

Anyway, Birdie did a great job with this one, didn't he? I mean, he always does, but that last panel makes me smile an awful lot. Next week's may be the funniest I've written so far, but it will probably lead to my summary dismissal. Lines will be crossed, worlds will live, worlds will die.

Speaking of the internet comics thing, Tycho's commentary about Platinum Studios latest vaporware-sounding project involving DrunkDuck.com is a joy for mine eyes. Platinum is, of course, most famous for managing to secure movie deals for comics that haven't seen print yet. To be fair, it does look like the graphic novel Cowboys and Aliens is going to see print, after the movie adaptation was discussed back in May, 2004. The film is expected in 2008.

Also, I think the comic about it all is high-larious.
