So this gets things kicked off. A few webcomic creators and us are playing a game of Tag. Simple rules: We use one of the other creator’s characters in our own strip and they’re It, they must then use their comic to Tag another creator by doing a strip using their characters plus the creator they’re tagging’s characters.

Well, that sounded simple in my head at least.

Anyhow, there are 7 of us playing: (http://candytripcomicstrip.com/;http://www.lunarbaboon.com/; http://www.ninjaandpirate.com/; http://tankmonkeycomic.com/; http://adorablecrap.com/; and http://raindogcomic.com/; plus this site.

Rain Dog Comic is one that I’ve fairly recently found, basically he did a series using Humpty Hump from Digital Underground that I thought was terrific. That led me to reading past strips and then to a meeting with Stephen McGee (the artist/writer) at Heroes Con in Charlotte, North Carolina. There I bought his book, a collection of strips, and found that the man is a genius. I couldn’t put the book down!

So, do yourself a favor, if you’re not already familiar with Rain Dog Comic and visit his site at http://raindogcomic.com/. If your also inclined to do so follow him on Twitter at @raindogcomic.

There, I’ve said enough, except . . . Tag, you’re It!
