In building up to the launch of the indie game Overgrowth, Wolfire Studios is running this comic, which I have to assume provides some backstory or at least shows a little more of the world they’re building. The artwork is very frantic and energetic, done by a very skilled concept artist, and the story so far mostly involves dog people stabbing each other.
I know it’s not exactly a webcomic, but if you’re enjoying the Apex Predator series, I’d lay paper on the likelihood that you’ll also like Simon’s Cat.
Probably old news to many of you who are regular webcomics readers, but I’ve been really digging The Abominable Charles Christopher. It is seriously one of the most smile-inducing comics online. I am kind of glad, though, that I was late to the party in reading it, because if I’d been familiar with it half a year ago, I probably wouldn’t have done a fox story, given some of the similarities.
So one of my favorite things right now is Tod Wills’ comic Ekwara, a cartoon fantasy full of gorgeous, cheerful artwork that reminds me a whole bunch of 1980′s fantasy films like Willow or The Dark Crystal. Ekwara started out as a weekly full-color comic, all done up with watercolors, but recently Tod’s stepped up his game and has gone weekdaily, giving up color in favor of moving the story along much faster. The man is some kind of machine, as in addition to Ekwara he does two other comics, Crimson Flag and Dracula, and manages to keep his Zazzle store stocked with new and excellent artwork every week on top of that. These are initiatives that I as a voter can get behind.
(there are not actually any cricket bats in Ekwara, the title of this post was unnecessarily misleading in that respect, and for that I apologize)
