* Bad Machinery, which has perhaps the strangest readership profile in comics with this very specific audience attending such a broadly appealing strip, is now on GoComics.com. If you haven't had the pleasure, dive in.

* an appreciation of the mighty Homestuck, just completed. If you haven't heard of it, conventional wisdom says you will 5-10 years from now as it's cited as a formative influence for more traditional comics you're reading. Here's The Beat. Here's Morgan Wick. Here's Gary Tyrrell. Congratulations to Andrew Hussie.

* "we've got XKCD comic creator Randall Munroe is here."

* finally, Faith Erin Hicks spends a part of this LA Times interview mentioning the strengths of on-line serialization as a creative strategy, something which she's very familiar.
