Of course, Columbus didn’t actually discover America. Just some islands nearby. Which he then raped and pillaged. So it is just like Zuda. I KEED, I KEED.

In the world of webcomics (no, wait, scratch that…)

If you’re serious about the presentation of your comic properties online, this merger is MUCH bigger news than the Zuda launch. Zuda is like Columbus discovering America… if he’d discovered it after the Pilgrims were already settling Manhattan.

How come no zuda reaction post … it went live yesterday at 6:00 … I figure there would be something? Even if you don’t like them (meaning the system) you have to support thier creators. Look foward to reading your comments.

I think it’s the severe over-the-topness that make it mania. And the body count is actually fairly high if you consider the number of properties involved and not that it’s only one merger of two people.

That’s what blows me away – that only two people were doing this much cool stuff on their own. Successfully.

Mania is both singular and plural.

Kinda like “good-time jamboree.”

Is it mania if it’s only one merger?

The cool part is that webcomics are starting to look like a real business to the outside world now.

I love all the sites involved and can’t wait to see how it all works together. Congrats to Joey and Josh!
