As long time readers may know, we’ve been trying to get an internet comic going since, I think, our very conception back when we were cannedpeople.com (don’t ask). If you’ve clicked on the link that says Whistling Past the Graveyard on our menu bar, you’ll see Jeff’s swell comics. As you can see, it’s updated infrequently. That might (heavy emphasis because I make no promises ) be about to change.

It all started with forum poster ToxSick who directed us to this fun site called Stripcreator. The site lets you play around with an easy comic creator using established characters from popular webstrips. It has sort of rejuvenated our outlook on the dormant Whistling Past the Graveyard “franchise”. We’re thinking maybe we should do something with this. As an example, here’s some quick strips that have been posted, the first 3 by forum poster Fake Larry and the last 2 by me.

So what do you guys think? Would you like to see a comic strip starring the guys from the Splattercast? Ideas, thoughts, feedback?

Like I said, we’re just sort of in the “Let’s do it!” phase that we’ve been in about a thousand times before. But maybe if we get that extra oomph from the listeners and readers, we might just take the plunge for real this time
