Like webcomics? Of course, if you are here at the Grove you do, but do you like hearing behind the scene details about webcomics from their creators? Well then you need to visit TGT Webcomics!

TGT Webcomics was created by two guys, Kurt Sasso and his friend Phil Hofer who love webcomics. In fact, the name of the site translates to Two Guys Talking Webcomics. With their passion for webcomics, they created this site as their showcase to give other fans of webcomics insights on the creation process of their love by interviewing artists and writers of webcomics.

Once a week, (currently Thursdays at 9pm EST) you can tune in live to their show or you can subscribe to the podcast via iTunes. Their show is an informal journey into the inner workings of the creation process of webcomics. It sounds like friends getting together over drinks and just talking about what they love. They also take questions from listeners via the chat on Talkshoe or from people calling in by phone. This lends to the whole feeling of a being in a live studio audience.

They also take a randomly selected webcomic and give it a good review in what they call their “spotlight.” Not only does this give you, the visitor, an in depth look at how they view webcomics, it also allows you to be exposed to a webcomic you may never have heard about before. For the webcomicker being reviewed, it is a win-win scenario. They get a review and they get new readers. It is a nice exposure for artists and writers that may be just starting out or an old hand who is looking to expand their readership.

The recently redesigned website is clean and easy to navigate, allowing you to browse through their extensive archive as well as see the schedule for upcoming podcasts. One thing I found particular interesting and unique is the Webcomics: What’s Cooking. It allows webcomickers to submit recipies for meals and drinks. The menu categories include appetizers, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, deserts and drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

So if you love webcomics and would love to hear behind the scene stories about them or see a spotlight on a comic you love or have never seen before, drop on by TGT Webcomics and immerse yourself in all things webcomics! You’ll be glad you did!

Stumble it!
