I hope y’all enjoyed “Assault on Yurg.” I’ll add it to my comics page eventually so y’all can read it all in one go. So, if y’all remember, a while back I said that I would post the comic that I drew for Glade and I’s wedding program. Well, I’ve finally got it colored so I’m going to be posting it over the next four weeks, every Tuesday and Friday.

Here’s the cover:

Math Fiction Squared Sketches

Filed under: Print Comics — Tags: , , — William Cardini @ 7:36 am

Hey d00dz, right now I’m working on a seven-page Miizzzard comic for Math Fiction Squared, the sequel to the 3D comic that I was in last year. Like the first one, Math Fiction Squared is edited by Pat Aulisio and will have digitally printed blue/red anaglyph 3D interior pages and a screenprinted cover. However, it’ll be a little smaller: 8.5″ square. I’m really stoked about it!

Here are some sketches:

Look for it in May. I’ll let y’all know when it’s out.

Please Help Fund Secret Prison for 2011

Filed under: Print Comics — Tags: , , — William Cardini @ 7:00 am

Secret Prison, a free comics newsprint anthology out of Philly, needs your help to continue in 2011. In 2010, they funded their three issues with three separate Kickstarters. For 2011, however, they’ve decided to try to raise all of the funds with one Kickstarter. They’re over halfway to their goal and they have until 11:59pm EDT on Sunday, April 3rd to raise the rest. Check it out here.

If you pledge, you can get old issues of Secret Prison (I had something in #2) or subscribe to all their publications for 2011 (I’ll be in #4 and I plan to submit to the rest). You can also get rad art, like this:

or this:

I’m also offering up a 9×12″ black and white drawing for anyone who wants to throw down a James Joyce.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup + Fort Thunder = Procedurally Generated Comics

It’s less than two weeks before my wedding, so of course I’ve become addicted to an ever-changing fantasy action RPG with a massive online community. I’m not talking about World of Warcraft – I’m talking about the free, cross-platform, and open-source roguelike Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
