Unsounded is engrossing, I’ve been nonstop clicking on it since I started reading. The art first attracted me, I guess I’m a sucker for mysterious cloaked men on floating hunks of earth.
In this webcomic we follow events in the lives of Hazel and Olive, two cats living together with their human. Like a lot of popular comedic duos one is a straight man, one is the funny guy. I haven’t really seen a funny cat-based duo before this (If you’re thinking Garfield and Nermal, I said funny) so this was refreshing! Cats are cute and funny and now I get to enjoy them without having to have my shoes puked on!
Wormworld Saga is a digital graphic novel created by Daniel Lieske, a German author and illustrator.
Normally when I look at a Webcomic I give it about 5 pages before I decide whether there’s enough reason to go on or give up. And while I don’t consider the ‘action’ of Redtail’s to have started till about page 19 I’m content to munch on my starter until the meat arrives, especially since the appetizer is so gluttonously beautiful! The art alone makes this particular work absolutely worthwhile.
C’est la Vie is rather happily unpinned as a genre, it has elements of the girly-buddy, it’s comedic as well as philosophical with a hint of romance thrown in for good measure. Created by Jen Babcock and “updated seven days a week” C’est la Vie may not be easily definable but it is certainly interesting.
We follow Mona, a quasi-dark gloomster with enough lighthearted playfulness to talk to her imaginary stuffed bunny friend, Monsieur Smokey. I wish I was that funny when I talk to myself. Mona’s acerbic wit often takes you where you don’t expect to go.
On the other hand there’s the roommate. While there’s a lot of play left in the ol’ ‘Odd Couple’ scenario Donna may sometimes land ever so slightly flat in comparison. Donna’s shallowness doesn’t have much lasting depth which, while funny might leave little room for growth. But we’ll see!

I’m going to mention the web comic ‘Grrl power’ in the hopes that you’ll take a gander for yourself. What is it? It’s a comic about ‘super heroines.’ Super duper powered females doing their thing, fighting evil and kicking general bad-guy tushie while doing the things us regular gals do, like getting a date.
Famed Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki, 72, has announced his intention to retire from filmmaking. Miyazaki, together with Isao Takahata, co-founded Studio Ghibli in 1895, the studio has two projects currently in the works an no intentions of closing their doors. Nor are they likely to, each project takes at a minimum of 5 years and can go up to 7 years to complete. Miyazaki’s reasons for retirement include a hesitation to commit to a project that could go into his 80s.
That sounds like a very good reason to retire! Though fans are still unsure how to take this retirement since Miyazaki has been in a perma-state of semi-ritirement since the completion of his film ‘Princess Mononoke’ in ’97. In a recent press conference he has said:
