The Ten Doctors - A Webcomic

A friend just sent me the link The Ten Doctors. It's absolutly brilliant. It's a webcomic by a huge Dr Who fan, where all ten of Doctor Who's incarnations meet up. He's done a really god job of capturing each character's likeness, and personality. And it's really funny too. Rose's reaction to Ace is just perfect. Did I mention that all the and the various assistants are there too?

In the text under the comics he explains where in the continuity each Dr come from. And the implications of the Time War on the other Doctors. And quite spectific props. He's a huge fan Smiling

I've only just started reading, but it's been going for quite a while now, so there's lots of archive to catch up on.

You Make

A little more about the You Make this comic project. It's not too late to sign up.

So far around 300 people have signed up to write, and around 80 to draw. So about twice a yeah each writer will be asked to write the next page. The rest of the year, you can vote for which page you think is best.

The genre has been picked as Science Fiction.

Currently you can vote for the name of the strip. ( I think option 45 is good, not that I'm biased Eye-wink )

They have comics on the internet now?

I've been reading webcomics for a long time now.

The history of webcomics is quite involved. The field's been around for over 10 years now. They range from newspaper comics with an online presence, to online comics with a newspaper presence, to comics which should never see print, and comics which could never see print.

One good way to get to find good comics is to read the review / critisism sites out there.

Self publishing means that it's never been easier to launch your own comic. Even if you can't draw, you can always write, shoot, play, or clip art your comic into existence. Or you could form a team, someone's just announced a new experiment to find artists, authors and techies and make a comic with a little bit of work from everyone. I'm signing up. There's a story inside all of us.
