Want to know more about Digital Comics? Start here...

Howdy all,
This is a basic one-stop-shop email with links to useful and enlightening information you might need to know about the Digital Comics frontier, though, to clarify, when we say Digital Comics, we're specifically talking about comics developed for the digital medium, using storytelling techniques not replicable by traditional print media. So, no digital comics presented in traditional form, or similar web comics. Not that there's anything wrong with them, they're a valid creative-style choice, but there's plenty of places out there already talking about those guys and gals.

So where to start?

Oz-Comic Con + the Downloadable and Subscribable Mo Fo!

Howdy All,
Last weekend was Adelaide's first, Oz Comic-Con, and where we had an optimistic hope for a crowd of 8,000-10,000 something crazy must have been in the water because 18,000 decided to turn up! It was a huge day!! And we had front row seats to the fantastic madness!

Gangs all here! The Mo Fos, with fantasy artist, Emerson Ward (left) and Darren Koziel of Dark Oz (right)

Cool Cat... or Bad Kitty!

The ultimate cross-over adventure!

An evocative representation of the philosophical struggle between the universal forces of dark and light set against a popular culture canvas that is in itself a further deconstruction of the central themes explored within the context of a metaphorical examination of the underlying conceit evidenced in the artistic creations balanced and yet opposing one another in the background, suggesting that both are in of each other, merely archetypes the photographer has selected to convey his true message of, 'Hot Diggity!'

And the Mo Fo army gains another recruit!

Make that two recruits!

Check out the rest of our Oz Comic-Con photos HERE. And if you'd like to know more about it, friends of the Mo Fo, I Got Superpowers, have an awesome write-up of the event HERE.
