Webcomics Merch Sighting?
The image you see above is from yesterday’s Heart of the City newspaper strip by Mark Tatulli; full-size image here. Ignore the larger gag, it’s not why we’re here today. Let’s zoom in on the 2nd guy from the left here. And a lil’ reminder of one of Colonel Kurtz‘s pieces of merch here.
Coincidence? Or has the influence of webcomics finally made it into that safest of all possible places, the Sunday funnies? This could be even scarier than network TV or VH1 infiltration. Dare we hope that the webcomics revolution is nigh?

And don’t forget the Penny Arcade merch appearance on ‘The Apprentice’. Probably wouldn’t have made it onto the show had NBC knew that particular character’s name. :D

That should be ‘known’. I’m an idiot.

Funny, because Mark Taluti is one of the guys who openly bashes webcomics and was stuck on the bandwagon of people criticizing Kurtz on the private NCS message board in the past. Well “openly bashing” is a bad term, he regularly has mocked them in the past. I’ve always figured some of the print guys were jealous that a guy could be much more successful online then them dealing with a syndicate and having to hold down a full time job while their at it. Suckers.
