Thanks for covering this, Kevin. A few other places and forums wrote about it too, and I woke up today to find (surprise, surprise) the site has been pulled. Amazing what a little public pressure can do..

Who Is Kevin Church?

Portrait by Paul Horn www.cooljerk.com

I write comics. I talk about comics. I think about design and marketing. I obsess over music. I drink whiskey. I'm on Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr, and can be emailed at beaucoupkevin(at)gmail(dot)com. I'm sometimes a real jerk.

Ongoing Webcomics I Write:

The Rack, A Comic Strip About A Comics Shop. Updated 4 times a week.
Waimea, a serialized graphic novel. Updated biweekly.

Print Comics I Have Written:

Cover Girl. A fast-paced, Hollywood action-comedy that I scripted, it received positive reviews. Here's one from PopMatters and another from Comics Worth Reading.
What Were They Thinking?!?. A collection of stupid remixes of old comics, lacking any real value to society. I've got five or six stories in this, but Johanna Stokes and John Rogers are where the real action is.
Cthulhu Tales Volume 1. I've got two stories in this, both moving Cthulhu into different spaces than the norm, and both drawn by the very-talented Joe Abraham. The first, "The Art Of Noises," received positive reviews from AICN among others, but, you know, AICN, so a grain of salt is recommended.

Other Websites I Maintain:

Searchpeers, SEO for Small Business. I pay my bills by offering internet marketing advice to small (and large) businesses.
Whiskey And Failure. I take pictures on occasion, and even more occasionally, I put my favorites here.
Get Off The Internet, where the web's detritus, flotsam, and jetsam is placed for your amusement by a crack staff.
Very, A Blog About Pet Shop Boys. Yes, I am enough of a fan of the venerable pop duo to maintain a blog about them.
Ask Cerebra, a search engine aimed at comics blogs.
Lawyerbear is a bear that is a lawyer.
