Transplant Comics

My Cardboard Life new at Transplant

Transplant Comics is pleased to announce our newest member: My Cardboard Life by Philippa "The Juzzard" Rice. Many webcomics feature characters who are two-dimensional, but in this one it's the entire world. Meet a little boy made of cardboard, a little girl made of paper, and a polar bear made of some kind of fibrous material.

My Cardboard Life updates several times a week. Transplant Comics is an online community and the world's leading researcher in forbidden webcomic science.

Cloaca Maxima Concludes

Everyone's body goes through changes during adolescence. Billy's body is going through more changes than most.

The conclusion of Ben Costa's disturbing minicomic Cloaca Maxima is now available for viewing at the Transplant Comics forum. Ben is the creator of the kung fu series Shi Long Pang. Go check it out.

Cloaca Maxima

Ben Costa, creator of Shi Long Pang, is working on a new minicomic for the SF Zine Festival. It's a bizarre tween pregnancy horror story called Cloaca Maxima. Ben was kind enough to post a preview at the Transplant Comics forum. Go check it out, and if you're at the SF Zine Festival next week be sure to say hi.

Minterview – Journey to Mount Moriah

With the current re-birth of Transplant comics, I thought it was about time that we got to know some of the creators behind the comics a bit better. So, I sent out a brief questionnaire to all of the members.

The purpose of this was mostly related to site admin and the questionnaire I sent out was more concerned with finding out exactly what everyone does, for marketing purposes etc.  However, they turned up some pretty interesting trivia, so, with minimal re-formatting, I'm presenting them as a collection of mini interviews... or minterviews.

We're starting today with Scott from the ever fantastic, Journey to Mount Moriah.

Big Month for Bellen!

Transplant Comics is proud to announce that Bellen! by Box Brown has been added to our lineup. This is the story of a boy named Ben, a girl named Ellen, and the things they do together. It's cute yet poignant, bizarre yet instantly recognizable. Go see for yourself.

The (brief but) complete webcomic walkthrough

Webcomics are a great way to show off your artistic talents online. You can even make money with them, with a little bit of luck, if you do it the right way.

When I started The Flowfield Unity, I had experience in handling comics in print, but had absolutely no idea how to create and manage a webcomic. This article is my attempt to collect together everything I have found out through research and trial and error.

This article is written with a small press ethos in mind, that is 'if anything can be done, it can be done for free'. Hopefully running a webcomic may make you some money (though be prepared for the amount to be 'not very much'), but it certainly should cost you little more than your time.Â
