Johnny Saturn

Hi, Folks!
I’ve got lots of stuff on my mind.
First up, we received our ISSN numbers from the Library of Congress today. That means we can make barcodes and get our comics back into brick & mortar comic shops. I’m quite happy about this.
Benita and I have been working really hard at reclaiming our [...]

Comics 2 Games – Free Comic Book Day 2009 Commercial from Chas! Pangburn on Vimeo.
Hi, Folks!
Saturday, on Free Comic Book Day, Benita and I made an appearance at Comics 2 Games in Florence, Kentucky.  We had an outstanding time!  We got to catch up with old friends Bob Hickey (Comics 2 Games, Blueline Pro, Sketch [...]

Hi, All!
1) I’ve got a new article in this month’s Sketch Magazine, and this time it’s in full color! It’s a revisit to one of my favorite Photoshop topics, building your personal color palettes.
In a way, I’m always amused that so many of my tutorials center around Photoshop, because I came to digital art [...]

Hello, Folks!
Johnny Saturn has entered Phil “Frumph” Hofer’s Webcomic War, were all the webcomics in it compete against each other for best and most promotion.  It’s a pretty cool idea, because everyone wins!  Sure, there are prizes for the winner, but anyone who promotes their webcomic has gained from the experience.  Phil Hofer is an [...]

Year in Review: Johnny Saturn
As 2008 winds down, and Benita and I make big plans for Johnny Saturn in 2009, I think it’s worthwhile to review our year.  In many regards, this year was huge for us.  In other regards, it was a “rebuilding” year.
The biggest event of our year was the publication of our [...]

Hi, Folks:
Good friend John Wilson has made “Johnny Saturn” today’s Sketchmag Spotlight over at the Sketch Magazine site.  We are, of course, quite honored.  Plus, he mentions Benita’s spinning wheel, which is a long-standing presence when we do comic shows.
You may have noticed that there is no Johnny Saturn store up.  I’ve had technical difficulties, [...]

Good Morning, Folks!

Item: I’m almost caught back up to the point the [...]

Good Morning, Folks!
 
I’ve got another busy day coloring Johnny Saturn lined up, plus work for one of my favorite customers, so today’s blog will be short.  In fact, I’m going to resort to the “lists of stuff” approach!  Lazy, lazy, lazy!
 
What webcomics do I follow most of all?  The list, presented in no particular order:

Hey, Folks!
Yesterday, Benita and I went to Columbus, Ohio for the Mid-Ohio Convention; this is about a three-and-a-half hour drive each way, but the trek was worth it many times over. We got to catch up with many old friends, and meet lots of new friends. (I know that sounds really clichéd, but the truth [...]

Hi, Folks!
 
This week, I’m doing an overview setting up a WordPress webcomic.  I’m going to do my best not to overlap too much with Bob Hickey’s excellent WordPress tutorial from Sketch no. 34, but of course there will be some overlap. 
 
1)      Get a host that is database compatible, and set up the database that [...]
