Powree has drawn the following page of Gaia as a proof of concept. It took her two full days to finish the page, so the start date and the update schedule of the comic is still in limbo.
Sandra and Woo has gotten enough votes by other webcomic creators to make it to the short list for the category “Best Black and White Art” at the Wecomic List Awards 2010. The other two nominees are The Abominable Charles Christopher and Lackadaisy which is certainly the favorite for winning this category this year.
Powree has finished the commission from the digital art auction mentioned on Sandra and Woo in December. And it turned out as one of her best drawings yet (click on the image for a larger version):
I also want to give kudos to the commissioner Newenglander for requesting such an interesting piece. Here is Powree’s description:
The pictured character, Janus, was the wolf who found and cared for the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus. A temple was then built by the twins to commemorate their bond. However, the place is now in ruins after one of the twins’ death, and thus Janus sets out to seek revenge
Don’t get the headline of this blog post wrong. The part about the copy protection is not about Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, but about the DVD of I am Legend. I could not watch the movie either on my computer or on my PlayStation 2. THANK YOU WARNER BROS. PICTURES FOR TREATING YOUR PAYING CUSTOMERS LIKE CRIMINAL SCUM!
So I watched Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs instead which was recommended by Tom Sidell of Gunnerkrigg Court in his Twitter feed some time ago. And I can only join in his praise.

But the story eventually becomes much more exciting than one thinks at the start. If you’re into animated movies, you should really not miss it!
Something for the statistic freaks out there (like me):
