Scott Kurtz letter
mammoth:
I am interested to hear about what people think about the open letter to bill amend scott kurtz recently wrote on his blog (http://www.pvponline.com/blog/3074/my-open-letter-to-bill-amend-and-his-equals) ! it makes about a million great points, is elouquent as all hell, and says a lot of thing that should have been said. i know i am interested in some sort of webcomic/paper comic co-op.

--- Quote ---Bill Amend recently quit his daily Foxtrot commitment to work on new things. How about working on something like this, Bill? Michael Jantze took his syndicated strip ?The Norm? out of papers and offered it online via subscriptions. Why not expand that business? Bill Holbrook draws an online comic strip alongside his newspaper strips. Why not help us create something new for papers, Bill?

The word subscriptions worries me...
I'm not quite sure what he's saying in this - get the webcomics in the papers? Get one supercomic together?

Scott Kurtz frustrates me because his rants about the state of comics typically do not address what HE could be doing to change things. Also, he is a fat artist that draws a pathetically bad webcomic.

It has rather nice looking designs and if you look back in the archives there are some really fun story arcs like when Jade and Brent broke up. The characters are also pretty fun and while it's not always funny, Scott generally has a basic understanding of plot and joke structure (More than Jeph to tell the truth). I really wish he would just try to do more with his characters and get better animators for the cartoon.
