Webcomics are our future

Filed under: None — R. D. @ 1:56 am

According to this article from Hear 2.0, the internet will be the number 2 ad medium in 5 yrs. Think about it, if this is true, and every day it looks closer to reality, the web will overtake print, radio, even Television.

What that means for us as creators is webcomics will overtake printed comics as the preferred medium of our viewers. The internet is opening up comics for indie creators in the same way digital video opened up film for indie filmmakers. I want to come back to this and explore it further after I finish up some deadlines, keep an eye out for it.

Yakima Valley 2006 Ice Wine

Filed under: None — R. D. @ 11:34 pm

If you’ve never tried an ice wine (also known as eiswein) before, you are missing out on something both rare and delicious. If you’ve never heard of an ice wine, let me explain.

An Ice wine is produced from grapes frozen while still on the vine. The grapes must ripen before the freeze to draw the maximum amount of sweetness from the natural sugars within the grape. These sugars do slow down fermentation slowing the wines ability to mature. I will warn you that the difficulty and risk involved in crafting ice wine makes it a little expensive. What is considered half a bottle of regular wine will run you around 20-25 dollars for the Yakima Valley 2006(375ml), which is considered relatively inexpensive for an Ice Wine.
It takes a very cold climate to produce ice wine. Austria, Germany, and Canada are it’s largest producers. Though the Yakima Valley I tried is actually from Washington state, so it is possible to make it in the states. You just need good timing and a good freeze. It was a sweet wine, but it was still light and crisp, hinted with sweet pears and citrus. Definitely a good summer dessert wine as it does not have the heaviness of a port.
It’s definitely a dessert wine so it goes great with heavier desserts like cheesecake.

I reccomend serving it extremely cold around 40F-43F degrees.

Is this how The Company removed the data from Matt Neuenberg’s Brain?

Filed under: Heroes — R. D. @ 3:54 am

Could this be the device that The Company used to remove data from Matt Neuenberg’s Brain, in the Heroes GN(ch. 70) that I wrote?

Free Comic Book Day

Filed under: None — R. D. @ 4:11 am

I enjoyed an excellent signing at the East Kentucky Comic Show, for Free Comic Book Day today.  I met some great folks, including Dave Flora (who I’d previously met at Lexington’s last comic show) Billy Tackett, and Chris and Sara from White Crow Comics, and lots of cool comic fans.  I’ll definitely be back for their next show August 23rd.
