New Li'l Mell!
I really, really dig Neil's drawings of Mell on this page. They're some of my all-time favorite Li'l Mells.

And there's a new installment in The Chronicles of William Bazillion! Now with more Nixon than ever!

In other news, our minicomic The Max O'Millions Adventure Society In: The Idol of Svarbald, written by me and drawn by Andrew, got a very nice review on Midnight Fiction. Andrew's hard at work on a sequel, featuring a teenage Max O'Millions in the 1950s, hopefully to be ready in time for Stumptown next month.

Also, the nomination round for The Harvey Awards closes this Friday, March 21. If you're a comics industry professional (and, yes, that includes webcartoonists), you're eligible to nominate comics for the Harveys. Click here for a text version of the ballot. You can type your nominees right into the document and send them in by email this year, which makes it easy to vote.
