This week we feature part 1 of an interview with Scott Kurtz, the creator and artist behind PVP. Scott is one of the most well known professional cartoonists on the web. During the interview he discusses how he got started with web comics and why. He talks about fans, Image comics, and so much more.

For show 21 we are joined by two guest hosts T. Campbell and Dave Bellmore. Mr. Campbell is a well known name as an affluent writer throughout the web comics community. He and Dave host their own podcast on all things comics called Meanwhile, so be sure to check their show out as well.

This week we interview a couple of the artists behind Blank Label Comics, Kristofer Straub and David Willis. Both of them, along with a few other cartoonists, recently broke ranks from Keenspot to form their own independent web comics label.

On today's show we discuss the new web site and new domain. We mention how we'd like to start offering advertising so we can finance trips to comic cons. We also announce that we are going to be at Connecticon next month.

We start off this week's show with a mention of upcoming changes to the Digital Strips online presence. We got a real URL and domain hosting, so be sure to look for an upcoming post when I get the site all nice and ready for guests. Those of you using podcast aggregators take note, the show's RSS feed will be changing location once we move to the new site. Also we mention this past week's major geek events even though they have nothing to do with web comics.

We start off this week's show with an announcement that both Daku and I will be in the Digital Strips IRC room this Wednesday night at 9:00pm ET (New York, US time). We'll be on hand to talk about this week's show, the comics we mentioned, or anything else you guys want to talk about.

Ok, this week's show is missing, well, me. I had family visiting all week and I didn't have time to get prepared. So, Daku recorded his thoughts and discusses this week's contest entry and other comic related podcasts. Next week we'll be back with a regular show. Thanks for listening!

In this episode we finally announce the winner of the 'We Love Web Comics Contest'. A special post will be made declaring the winner and showing off the winning comic submission later on. If you want to know who it is right now though, you can listen to this show.

Three months of running Digital Strips now. How long can we keep this up? I guess we'll find out. We start off with a reminder that our ongoing contest is running for only one more week. You have until this coming Friday to get us your entries.

We start the show off reminding everyone about our ongoing contest. Only two more weeks to get us your submission, so if you haven't finished it yet better get cracking. We've gotten some excellent submissions so far and every one of them has made us laugh.

Three months of doing the show now. Pretty cool. We start off the show by mentioning my own web comic, The Last Drop. Have a look and feel free to pick on me like I've picked on other comics.

We start this show off with an announcement. I, Zampzon, am starting my own web comic. It will debut right here on this very page Tuesday. Please be sure to check back and have a look. Now everyone who's web comic I've reviewed on the show can come and get me back.

This week we feature the funny and irreverent Yirmumah (yirmumah.net) by D.J. Coffman and Bob McDeavitt. We first talk about the web comic and then play an interview we recorded with DJ earlier in the week. DJ is the artist behind Yirmumah and has been working in the independent comics industry for a long time. He has a lot to say about independent comics and comics on the web.

In this show we return to our roots. The change in format focuses on the reviews of web comics, as it should be. If you want the news you can read the blog. Daku starts us off with a brief discussion on what it takes to get started learning to draw for your own comic.

We continue on, commenting on that we want to get the show trimmed down in terms of time ... and then proceed to have an hour long show. *sigh*. To be fair, the time went on because of our excellent interview with Jared Koon, writer and project lead for the excellent web comic The Farlight Saga (farlightsaga.com).

We start the show off talking about last week?s interview with web comic artist Wes Molebash of You'll Have That. Be sure to come back next week for our interview with Jared Koon of the Far Light Saga (farlightsaga.com).

Our sixth show is now online. In this show we change things up a bit. First of all, the radio sound effects are gone. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

In this show we ask that web comics creators add a synopsis or summary to their comics pages to make it easier for us to get caught up with your stuff.We also ask for audio comments. Send your MP3 files to digital.strips@gmail.com so we can play them on the show.

Thanks to everyone that sent in links to new and interesting web comics. Please keep them coming! Let us know what you like and if you have your own web comic let us hear about it.Ok, on to our picks of the week. Every show Daku and myself choose two strips for discussion. If you are listening to the show on your computer we encourage you to check out the strips as you listen.
