			<description><![CDATA[ it's been a little less then a year since i was introduced to the web comic world, and i got my start more or less reading what the web comic world was like on this ez-site. what i've done since then is that i took the advice of eveyone here, and started my own, with a creative team of my friends. we call it negative-utopia, a post apocaliptic world filled with super powers and what not, from a creative team with no experience, but who could expect more. the auctual comic is not up yet, but... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ well i kinda noticed that the megatokyo topic became less megatokyo and more marvel. stan lee, while he may have made marvel what it is today, he just about did make marvel a dc ripoff. a few groups aside, marvel is just one big rip off, but for some reason or another, they're the only good thing i'm seeing out there in mainstream. with out virtago, dc sucks, mcfarline, as mainstream as they are doesn't put out on a normal monthly level, i haven't seem image put out anything decent since '97,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ has anyone elese gotten a chance to read this amazing web comic, well, everyone must fred gallagher is a genius in every aspect of the word, it's about two americans who go to tokyo for a video game convention and then can't return home.. what's great about it is that it's in the manga style, but it has a huge american twist, the art is crisp and clear, it almost reminds me of the new runnaways series by marvel. but you must check out this comic at www.megatokyo.com ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Crikey, I've been at this for four bloody months and I'm still having trouble drawing a lady. What is it about them that's different? Is it their eyes or their front bits!?? What makes them so different? Every single lady I've drawn turned out to be some odd-looking chap with long hair and a fanny.<br><br>Now that I've got that bit out of the way, I was hoping some chap could help me. I'd appreciate any pointers anyone could lend me on how to draw ladies. Or more specifically, girl-faces.... ]]></description>

			<link>http://rocketboxcomics.yuku.com/topic/968/t/End-of-an-Era.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I think the last comic of the strip 1/0 played today.  While this might sound like hype, I'm fairly impressed.  Tailsteak put together the most coherent self-referential world I've ever seen and made it work.  For two and a half years he's been the first comic I ever see.<br><br>And I like the fact that from the start he planned out the end of his world.  Few comic writers seem to have the nerve to stick with a project that way, or to destroy their own worlds when the time comes.  Too many... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I am willing to assume that this is nothing new, and I can hardly claim to have any empirical evidence that it is happening in any greater respect than previously.<br>But is it just me or does there seem to have been a rather large amount of decently prominent webcomics that have closed shop in the last months? If this is so could it be related to the economy, both web and physical?<br><br>Or am perhaps Im just plain wrong about it. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ GRRrrrr... I hate it when I'm looking for comics and there's a huge list of just names, no banners, descriptions or anything.  Yeah, some places that's all you get, but so many of them you can add more, and people don't bother.  How do they expect people to get interested by just a name?  Half the time you can't even tell what genre it is! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I'm sick of these comics getting so successful because of their crudeness and distasteful subject matter. I want to make this clear. I'm not sick of the actual subject matter. I'd be quite happy if this sort of thing was equally as popular, but it seems that if you have tit shot in every comic suddenly it becomes 'The cleverest thing ever'.<br><br>Plus it cheapens some very valid story telling tools.
