Your friendly Cartoonist Don Ahe
It so happens I have gotten a new job in a new city, I’m commuting 50 min each way until we move in Sept. so I’m really busy. To help me through this busy time I have great people doing guest strips for me and I will be posting them as I receive them. I feel really lucky to get the help and support from so many talented cartoonists, I hope you all enjoy seeing them as they come up, as I do.

Tom Dell’ringa’s comic strip Marooned is one of those strips I have always meant to get around to reading but never did. Well I was missing out! 3 weeks ago I finally sat down and traveled through his archive, What great stroytelling and characters. After reading 180 strips I was so involved in the storyline that I felt the urge to draw his characters, and fired off some fan art, which you can see there today. Tom is a crafty storyteller and innovative cartoonist that is always striving to create the best comic he can, It is definitely a website worth book marking! So don’t be silly like me , check it out right away.
Hey everyone, I’m the webmaster around here. I recently had the privilege to sit in on and record a fascinating conversation about comics by two of my favourite comic artists: David Scott Smith, of Space Base 8 fame, and your very own Don Ahé. Dave and Don talk about their recent comics, how they came to discover webcomics, and also discuss other comics which they’ve been following and enjoy. It’s really quite… revealing! OK, maybe I threw in my own 2 cents a couple times as well 😉
Anyway, you can listen to the audio below, or use the download link to save it for later listening. Hope you enjoy!

I guess I owe it to John Sanford of Chippy and Loopus fame for me discovering Mighty Monocle. That is where I found the link to this witty comedy. D.M. Rolfe is one of those cartoonists that seems totally in control of what he is doing. I was so impressed with his first dozen strips that I felt a strong urge to draw his characters. So I did. Mighty Monocle is about lackluster hero and his side kick Terry who take mediocrity to an hilarious level. I really suggest you give this strip a look over, I laughed out loud a few times reading it, and I’m sure you will too. Today is fan art Friday and you’ll find some art by yours truly there, I hope you enjoy.
