Achewood explains twitter.
* speaking of
Achewood,
this is a nice introductory article if you haven't had the pleasure yet, a place to find the test animation video footage if you haven't gone searching for it yet, and a reminder that one of the very big publishing stories in all of comics this year was that strip's return to regular posting if you haven't written one yet.

this is sort of fascinating; I read it right after last week's column posted: Mark Waid and Peter Krause are doing a
Daredevil comic aimed at digital platforms rather than print. This is interesting for the basic facts of it, for Waid's advocacy on behalf of digital comics, and because the Daredevil character is going to be between print iterations very soon. I think there's a lot of room left for how these giant companies use digital comics; I don't think they've even begun to scratch the surface.
