At the moment I'm reading through the archives of MegaTokyo. And I'm planning to start Legostar Galactica, and some others soon.

My wife and I planned our entire wedding around making it "simple, elegant". In 1995, I visited Portugal and bought an AIDS benefit poster. The subject matter is adult, but it's art, not porn. Why? It's really just a bunch of black charcoal lines on white... but unlike Bob's "art"... it captures an entire moment between two people. I have been fascinated by that simplicity since I first saw it. It cost me more to ship the poster to the US, and even more than that to have it framed, but it hangs now in my house. I have always been a fan of Bauhaus.

Krishna, maybe you could give Bob a break and let him do a guest strip for you once he gets a few comics published. :) Maybe something along the lines when "the kids" would do the strip in Family Circus.

Bob obviously hasn't looked at the market. Most webcomics are pure crap. Few of the people who do them for a living actually make a living on it (Phil and Kaja Foglio come to mind, but their real income comes from marketing book versions, novelties, and conventions). Some have great art. Others have great stories. Some have both. My favorites are: Girl Genius, Brathalla, Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, The Phoenix Requiem (and its predecessor Inverloch), The Noob, and of course PCW and Uncubed :) There are other good ones out there, though not all have kept my interest. Gone with the Blastwave was good, but the creator posts a new page about once every six months and openly says he has little interest in his own work (which makes me wonder why he bothers). But Bob should definitely publish a few of his webcomics. I see great opportunity for comedy there. Hoooboy. Bob obviously hasn’t looked at the market.
