* this is a must-read interview with Joey Manley and John Boeck about the ComicSpace/Webcomics Nation merger, although it's not without its frustrations. When an explanation lacks proper nouns and/or numbers, it's usually a sign that the answer lacks specificity and clarity. Admittedly, I have the same problem when I interview businessmen -- unlike really good artists, this kind of rhetoric is almost always right on the tip of their tongues.
