KickStart THIS- BLACKGUARD Animation!

When the first issue of GhettoManga Quarterly was printed way back in 2008, it had an ad on the back cover for a webcomic called BlackGuard, paid for by the Brothers of Spontaneous Combustion also known as the Smith Brothers.

That little scamp John Oliver tried to make me feel a little less robophobic in this video about automation.  He failed, but it was fun to watch, so here you go.

I'm a leave this right here: "Let's Print a Comic (& Not Screw It Up" #MakeComics

I'm THANKFUL for the promise of a TRIBE relaunch...
