That Ur-Quan Master: Weekly Webcomic
« on: September 11, 2009, 11:13:37 am »

  Every Friday.  Enoy, folks. 

  Announcing a new weekly SC-related webcomic: That Ur-Quan Master by Ethan Fleischer and Jesse Dew.  Follow the story of the lowest-ranked battle thralls aboard a Dreadnought during the Ur-Quan Conflict. 

Experience:
A.  Fascinating alien cuisine. 
B.  Practical jokes perpetrated against the most dangerous sentient species known.
C.  Substance abuse among the stars.  And,
D.  A plethora of absurd haberdashery.

This has potential. Don't like the way the Ur-Quan is drawn but I've seen snapshots of other aliens from your unreleased comic strips and the art style is pretty good otherwise.

I don't mind the Ur-Quan really, though I do have a hard time understanding the orientation of the ridges in the third to last panel.

How much of a buffer do you have?

  We have five more comics completely done. 

  The art in this first one is pretty rough, I admit.  We're still shaking some of the rust off and establishing our working methods for the first couple of strips.

Once you have several strips up I recommend you enter the strip on thewebcomiclist.com. It's free publicity, man.

I'd wait until you have several strips so the early spike from being on the 'newest' list has a better chance of catching reader interest.

That was hilarious.  Next time I fight the Ur-Quan in battle, I hope I can keep that image out of my mind.  "Launch Fighters"

This is definitely interesting; something seems wrong about the Ilwrath, but it's not enough to make me stop reading. I'd like to see more.

My only complaint is the fact that it's flash-navigated. Is there any chance of getting an RSS feed so I can know when it updates?

Fleischer makes me think of Max Fleischer the animator...

RSS has been requested before but doesn't look probable. You could always get the SCDB forum RSS, Eth posts a topic every week for the newest comic. There's be a lot of noise if that was all you were watching for though.

  I have started research on RSS feeds. Hopefully I can figure out how to rig one up at some point.  No timetables yet, but have started looking into it.
