This Wednesday (11th Jan) is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. To participate I joined over 100 other comic creators in creating a fabulous wallpaper based on the theme EPIC SNOWBALL FIGHT! To get it you need to donate to Comic Creator’s For Freedom and the money goes to charities dedicated to the prevention of human [...]

So. Flattr. You are probably wondering “Flat-err-WHAT?!” having never heard of this thing. I only heard about it last week. It was released in 2010 so it’s relatively new – less than a year old in fact, and still in beta. Nonetheless I am going to use my powers of prediction to foresee Flattr as [...]
‘Webcomics: What’s Cooking’ is a charity cookbook in support of American & Canadian food banks. Over 50 top webcomics (including Epic Fail) have collectively contributed thousands of hours to making this book possible. It features food-themed comics, each with an accompanying recipe to keep you fed through breakfast, lunch and dinner. Comics + Cooking = [...]
The collaborative Cookbook ‘Webcomics: What’s Cooking?‘ organised by TGT Media and featuring custom comics from numerous webcomic artists (including me) is set to raise money for food banks across America and Canada – just in time for Thanksgiving! ‘Feed your Family – Feed the World‘ is it’s moto, so make sure you support this fantastic [...]
In addition to uniting comics creators in real life I want to do the same online. If you recall I used to be a member of the Webcomic Planet Collective. I haven’t spoken very much about this but the truth is it EPIC FAILED during the Webcomic War. Funnily enough during this event I had [...]

Today Epic Fail is featured on Comicracy, a comic hosting site where you vote your favourite comics to the top – where they are awarded cash prizes! They recently changed their voting system so you can vote for each page once per day (instead of once a lifetime). This is tremendous because I just know [...]

The Cosmic Hellcats Interview continues with Chris Maverick, and its Artist Maximillian joins us. Click here if you haven’t read Cosmic Hellcats Interview – Part 1. Hmm, you’d need to find some very dedicated cos-players… which leads me to ask: If you were a character in a Sci-Fi show who would you be and why? [...]
I went to Caption Comics Convention at the weekend, which is based in the city I live, Oxford. Considering I’ve been here for the past 7 years I should probably have attended it before now, especially since last years theme was ‘Away with the Fairies’ of all things. I love faeries! And I missed it! [...]
Today, May 14th, is ‘Dialogue Free Comics Day.’ It’s a challenge to create a silent comic, a mute comic, a comic where actions speak rather than words. Talking heads can take a hike. Show – Don’t tell! Text, in the form of signs or sound effects are allowed however. Conceived by Noel Curry of D. [...]
