Pat Dorian sez, "Cory blogged about my t-shirts he saw at NYC Comic Con 2011. I took one of my characters from my t-shirts and made a web comic based on him. I thought you might dig it."

The Face-Skull (Thanks, Pat!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    As a former cartoonist myself, I’ve always been partial to “single panel” comics. A single panel really puts a cartoonist’s know-how to the test. In other words, without the somewhat repetitive multi-panel set-ups, most of these “Face-Skull” ‘toons could easily thrive with only two or three condensed panels (but probably not one) – in conclusion, Pat Dorians drawings are very good. But I simply don’t find “Face-Skull” funny – and (after all) that’s what all great cartoons are supposed to be. Unless (of course) Face-Skull is one of those conceptual comics (?) that is supposed to be ironically unfunny.
