Hey Factory Fans!

Sleep is overrated.  Oh, sure, it gives you rest, but think of how many video games you could’ve played during those eight hours?  You could house all of Grand Theft Auto V.  Like cookies, sleep to me is a nice treat once in a while, but too much makes me want more.  I don’t know, I’m rambling.  I haven’t gotten much sleep.

Today at Super Frat it’s Twitter in Focus with George R.R. Martin.

Don’t forget to click our sponsor for October, MyDiGitalComics.com and look for our second October sponsor soon!

And the Quote of the Day is from Leonardo DaVinci:

“A well-spent day brings happy sleep.“

Tuesday on the Network: Texting

Hey Factory Fans!

I avoided texting for so long.  Partly because I had such an old cellphone and before that, I refused to even get a cellphone.  But like the rest of you, I buckled under the heel of convenient technology and now I just can’t stop.  Speaking of which, better check my Clash of Clans game.

At Super Frat, it’s a new strip called Veteran Stoners.

Do you like role-playing games?  I worked on one called Mythos Arcanum, which is currently raising money for their Kickstarter campaign.

And speaking of money, don’t forget to check out our long time sponsor, MyDiGitalComics.com.  Most of the downloads are free!

And the Quote of the Day is from Nick Cave:

“Texting is apocalyptic on some level. It’s a reduction of things.”

Monday on the Network: Costumes Again?

Hey Factory Fans!

Cosplay is in the geek news again.  I covered this myself over at Super Frat here and here.  Are cosplayers killing sales?  Well, not by themselves.  Certainly, no one is able to buy comics when they’re wearing a skin tight outfit with no wallet and you can’t carry swag when you’re carrying a giant fake, laser rifle from video game.  But cons have been sliding down hill for a while.  It’s not only turning towards cosplay, but to autographs, wrestlers and every con organizer wants film, music and TV stars on hand too.  At first, I was all about broadening the appeal of shows, but things have swung so far the other way, comic are getting marginalized.

It’s time to rethink the con and what it’s about.  And it’s definitely time to design a better webcomic con.

Don’t miss your Monday Validation.

At Super Frat, it’s time for Ask Señor Cactus!

And the Quote of the Day is from Paul Stanley:

“Don’t kid yourself; the guy who’s onstage in ripped-up jeans is wearing as much a costume as I am.“

Sunday on the Network: Potato Man to the Rescue!

Hey Factory Fans!

Superheroes are such a goof to me.  I mean, I like them, I read them and all, but I never took them seriously.  Really, you gotta dress up in a leotard to fight crime?  Wouldn’t it make more sense to dress in all black with no logos?  If you had ninja skills or superpowers, why would you ever let anyone know you were ever there?

At Super Frat, it’s Your Fratoscope for September 28, 2014.

And the Quote of the Day is from Christopher Nolan:

“Superheroes fill a gap in the pop culture psyche, similar to the role of Greek mythology. There isn’t really anything else that does the job in modern terms. For me, Batman is the one that can most clearly be taken seriously.“

Hey Factory Fans!

Speaking of the past, we’ve got some of our older projects coming back online soon.  So stay tuned!  I’ll give you a hint.  Has to do with Halloween!

Today at Super Frat, it’s Ten Things I Expect My Dog Would Say If She Could Talk.

And the Quote of the Day is from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle:

“Of all ghosts the ghosts of our old loves are the worst.“
